IS OUR PARTY o WEAK V
Those who halter themselves that the L>emo
cratio party is " weak,” will probably have occa
sion to change their tono Boon. If unanimity of
Bentimeut and firmness of pnrposo are evidence
of strength our party in this county is stronger
than ever. If a bold defiance of opponents, and
a readiness to do battle singlo-hauded with all
its enemies, are proof of power we are string’
If & consciousness of right—and faithfulness to
the Constitution, tho Union end the peoplo give
strength we have it. If a knowledge that it is
the only national party gives courage, hope and
energy we have them. If a strong and unexcep
tionable lioket adds to our chaDoes of a triumph
we have it. If xeal and activity unsurpassed in
any former election strengthens our c&uee, then
is our oaoee BtroDg. If repeated and numorous
assurances of oonstant accessions to onr num
bers gives strength, then will oar strength give
oonfasion to our enemies on the 9th of October.
If the anion of all opponents of the Demoor&ay
could only boat us by 6000 votes last fall, what
can they do when thoso opponents aro divided
into two or three parties, while onr own ranks
are filled up with new aooesaiona from all quar

This story of Democratic weakness has been
told a thousand times within half a century,
and the people have calmly given it the lie at
the ballot box almost as often. After tho defeat
of Gen. Cass in 1848, our utter ruin as a party
was proclaimed and exalted over as an accom
plished fact. Yet tho “ ruined ” party carried
every State in the Union, except four, In 1862,
and this year it has carried overy Stato.in the
Uaion, exoopt two, where elections have been
held. I> suoh a party “ weak f” The man who
believes it iB “weak.” -
Last year large numbers of Democrats refused
to vote, and some voted against our own candi
dates. That is well known. We have not yet
heard of a single Demoorat this yoar who is
doubtful in regard to his vote, or who intends to
neglect biß whole duly to bis party and his
oonolry. The numbers nud the enthusiasm at
our public mootings arc an excellent evidenoe of
that. Meetings so fall, harmonious and enthu
siastic have seldom been seen before in this
county. Nor iB it at the meetings alone that we
find evidenoe that the Democrats arc thoroughly
aroused and resolved on victory. Every Demo
orat seems to feel that he oan individually do
something for onr cause. And so he oan. Bee
that all are assessed ; that all have their taxes
paid ; that all naturalized oitizons have their
papers right; and all, of whatever nativity, rank
or station, turn out on election day, and get the
right tioket. Every man in tbe party can bo a
vigilanoe committee, and do much good.
If every Democrat would be as active as some
Whigs who have resolved to support our tioket
•wo oould win an unexampled triumph. We wel
come votes from all, and will not forgot the fa
vor. Democrats helped to make a Whig Mayor
last winter ; will not a thousand Whigs be equal
ly liberal this fall ? It is our turn now, and we
have good evidenoe that we shall find numerous
friends among those who are not bound to be
Democrats if they vote our tioket for once.
Let those who prate of the weoknesss of our
party look to their defences The people have
discovered the value of uew fangled notions,
loud'professions, and seorel organizations, and
are siok of them. They havo been “weighed
In tbe balance and found wanting.”
Look out for Democratic “weakness” thia fall

FORCE OF HABIT-THB UUBSTIOM.
Tho Gazette of this city strikingly illustrates
the force of habit in on artiole yesterday address-
„e4»!iXaQl4WhigB>’’.lt»Biafeeaaii f aiiddoubtleßa
sincere desire this year, is to defeat the Know
Nothings. Bat it has been fighting the Demo
crats so long that it oannot, even to accomplish
its purpose, 00-operate cordially with the only
party that has any hope or prpspeot of winning
a viotory over proscription and seorot machina
tions this, fait Xho oar tioket has
nnlh:
ingso affairs. Tho ques-1
tioß is :'iBhali the Oembeeatic or the ‘Know Noth
ing ticket be elected this fall in this cotatty ? That
is the simple question for every
voter to affiHn»elf, and vote aooording to
If the are Buooessful it gives them a
ohance of some peraanenoy in this oounty. But
a defeat now woold be the end of their organiza
tion. ■ Upon the dissolution of their party the
Republicans would reoeiva q.large aooesslon of
numbers, and the Republican end Democratic
would then be the two great rival parties in this
county. Bat if the K. S.’s sucoeod this fall the
Republioan poirty has no hopes for the future-
It will be remembered that it was the Gazette
that, eome months ago, put an end to all ohanoe
of a fusion tieket on our side by demanding
what was wholly unnecessary, and what no
Democrat oould concede. The Demoorats had
no option then but to nominate a good Demo
oratio tioket, and go to work for it with bll their
might. They have done bo, and it can be elect
od if all who sincerely oppose Know Nothingißm
will do their duty. To throw away votes thia
year on candidates who, however respeotable,
"have no ohanoo ol an eleotion, is utter folly. It
helps to eleot those whom the Gazette admits
should not be permitted to hold theoffioea of the
oounty ; and it helpß to keep alive, a party that
one rousing defeat would utterly demolish and
destroy, fiats never deserted a sinking ship
faster than a very largo portion of the K. N.’s
would abandon their organization if ono utter
defeat should overtake them. A large portion
of them would join the Republicans. And the
sinoero Republicans and the old lino Whigs, by
throwing away thoir votes this fall, help to per
petuate the K. N organization to their own ulti
mate loss.
Wo oan see no possible practical good that can
result from following tho advice of our neighbor,
and wo are glad to find on every hand strong in
dications that tho “old Whigs,” and voters of
all dosses, and all provious political prodileo
tions, disposed to think for themselves, and cast
their votes where they will do some good. We
daily rooolve assurances from staunoh Whigs,
who have heretofore been active in that party,
that they shall support our ticket. Nor are they
more individual voters. Some spear for large
numbers who make known through them their
intentions. 'Ye have evory thing to encourage
us ; and wo arc well aware that the main thing
that keeps np the eourago of the K. N.’s la the
oontinned appeals of the Gazette to the Old
Whigs to throw away their votes. If enough
votes are thus throwu away they think they eon
elect thoir tioket. If not, they arc defeated.
Thus they reason, and thus the Gazette enconr
ages them. But wo trust tho good sense of tho
people will yet disappoint them. If our ticket
was not a good ono we oould not ask support for
it. But nono objeot to it; why not, then, sup
port aud elect it 7
But Democrats havo good cause for hope and
activity. Wo have a fair chance of a triumph
this fall , and never had bettor encouragement

Tbs Beadiho Maohihe—S B Laufier, book
seller, next door to the Kxohango Bank, on Fifth
street, has Bent to us an ingeniously devised
readiog maohioo, which we think wiil bo a use
ful thing to thoso who read muob. It oonoists
of a support for a back, a spring to hold the
loaves open, a lamp with a reflector attached to
give light and throw it upon the hook, and a
contrivance for attaching tho machine to the per
son so that one may read and at the same time
have both bis hands at liberty, in tbe day litno
the lamp oan be dotached.
Wo have triod this now invention, and are sat
isfiod that it is just the thing for oar nee, and
would give satisfaction to any ono who would try
it. In tho evening the light from the lamp
would bo thrown npon the page just right, wbilo
the reflector Bcrves also as a ahado for the eyes.
Wo advise onr citizens to go and look at it and
give it a trial. Tho thing “ mast take.” It
avoids most of tho inoonveniaaoes of reading
both by day and night. You have not to hold
up the book in your hands, wbloh is tiresomo.
The leaves are held down firmly. Tho light is
thrown in the right plaoe; and tho eyos are
shadod. You have your hands at liberty while
reading, and you oan read equally well while
walking about, sitting or standing. Go and see
Mr. Louffer. He will explain it and sell it
oheap. It is a goad thing.
Bishop Dcahe's Sou. —Tho Churchman, a
High Charoh Episcopal organ pablieheihia Now
York, in noticing the deposition from the minis
try of George Hobart Doane, by his father, the
P. Episcopal Bishop of New Jersey, said that
when ho was delivering the sentence Bishop
Doane was very muoh affected, and dcolared “ he
would rather with that hand have closed his
eyes in death ” A correspondent of a New
York papor very properly doubts the truthful
ness of the statement; for, says the corres
pondent, “ I oannot oonaeive it possible that a
bishop of the fiplsoopal Charoh, or a Christian
of any sort, much less a father, oould have ut
tered snob a heathenish and brutal wish as that
his own son might din rather than adopt the re
ligion of whioh his coneolenoe approved." The
Churchman also intimates yonng Doane is insane,
and that he inherits it from the miternnl aide of
the family. This way of snppoeing every ono
crazy who ohooses to differ with yon is getting
to be very common, bat it is hardly in accord
ance With that divine religion whose chief es
senoe 1b charity.

THE STATE FAIR*
Harrisburg, September 27, 1855.
Eds. Posij—o After a.hard rai.u lest night,, -the
third day of the Fair opened bright and ole&r,
bat tho groond is too wet.
If you have read in “Pilgrims Progress”
Banyan's account of “ Vanity Fair,” you oan
form some idea of the appearance of things at
Harrisburg now. Tents arc oreefced in every-jip
reotlon]around thnFairgrouuds, in whioh are ex
hibited every imaginable kind of beast, birds,
reptiles,. deformities, prodigies and curiosities,
and they all appear to be doing a thriving bußl*
Pickpockets and tbievos do not thrive. The
Pittebargh delegation of this bind of gentry
find our friend John Fox. of the detective polloe,
a good deal in their way. A strong police force
hae preserved excellent order daring the three
busy days, and I have Been not a fight, and but
two or three drunken zuon.
Pittsburgh and Allegheny oounty are poorly
represented in the exhibition—but few things
being sent. Reed & Go., Third street, have a
new theodolite compass and some other survey
ing instruments, whiah will be sure to draw the
silver medal. Johnston & Co.’s bnggy is by far
the bost on the ground. They nre of Allegheny
City. Mr. Martin exhibits the best grapes.
The politicians predlot here that the next leg
islature will be Democratic. They say the K.
N.’s are in a state of confusion and dissolution |
all over the State, and can hardly hold together
for this years’ election, and by next year will be
powerless. Hon. Arnold Flumer is here, and
of course expects to have to oame back in No
vember and assume the duties of Canal Commis
sioner, to which office he will no donbt be elected.
Hon. J. Qlanoey Jones, of Berks, is here. He
is a favorite candidate for Speaker of the Honso
of Representatives of Congress, and I hope he
will be elooted. He 1b one of our best men from
the old “Keystone,” and would mako an excellent
offioer. The President is still hero, and has
been oalled on by large numbers of people. He
bears the infliction with great patienoe and good
humor; and is winning the good opinion of all
who see him.
The Canal Board is in session. They think
the pnblio works of tho State will prove as pro
ductive this year as last. It is now understood
that the Contral Railroad Company will pot in a
bid for the Main Lino in the oonrae of a month.
Upon the failure to get a itid at tho first ottering
bids of any amount are to bo reooived and ro
’erred to tho next legislature. VVe shall soe
then what the Railroad Company Ibiat tho
MaiD Line ” worth
A few words more must oloso my account of
this State Fair So far as live stock is con
cerned it is a failure. A few good oatllo were
exhibited ; but thero are very few of thorn.
Plenty of bens, roosters and cbickons ; but they
look to mo very much as babies and negroes Jid
when I was a child—l oould see no ditlorenoe
between them, and hardly distinguish one from
another. On the whole this Fair bas been a
poor one ; not to bo compared to tbo one at
Pittsburgh two years ago 1 hope and believe
the Allogbeuy Count u Fair nett week will far ex*
cel it in tho number, variety and excellence
the articles exhibited lu agricultural produc
tions, meohanical skill, niauufaoturea, and livo
stocks, few if any counties io America excel our
old Allegheny ; aud in one thing it Qcvcr was
exoelle ; and that io in large, strong and excel
lent draught horses. Bome gentlemen who aro
here at this Fair will be at ours next week, and
they have been assured that onr counly will
beat the State in its exhibition. We ehail sec.
Democrats, this is the lust Jjy for being
seasod preparatory to vohug ou the iUb of Oj
tober.

| Prom the Su Louie Republican, September 22.
We hear from Kansas that Perktna, who was
started as an Administration candidate for Con
gross In opposition to Qen. Whitfield has with
drawn from tbo race. The pro-slavery men, al
though there was no oaodidate in opposition,
were still active and would give a full voto. Gov.
Shannon recently mudo a visit to Looompton,
tho now seat of government, io oompaoy with
the secretary of tho territory, one of the com
misßioners and others, for the purpose of select
ing a site for the capital. Returning, he passed
through Lawrenoe on a day when a revolutions*
ry meeting had been held, and the peoplo were
greatly exoitod by the incendiary harangues to
wbiob they had listened. Ho was invitod to slay
in Lawrenoe all night, but he doctined doing so;
and then the orderly, law-abiding and dcoent
citizens of that town manifested tboir respect
for the cffice and tho man, by insulting him
with groans and sbonte of derisioD as he left the
town.
We find the following paragraph from the New
ork Mercury in the Bouton i*oit :
Tho day beforo Mr. Buohanan sailed for
England to enter on his mission at London, we
spent an hour with him at his lodgings, Astor

[ From the Hartford Cou rant, September 24
Aged Twine,
A correspondent from Somers, statod tho other
day, that there was a pair of twins, now living
in that town, a little over eighty-seven yoars old,
and oalled for their match. A Vernon man, in
reply say, “if your correspondent refers to the
age of twine who have lived in Uncle Sam,s do
minions, I will state that there was born in Ash
ford, West sooiety, Deoember 25th. 1762, a son
and daughter to Elijah and Hannah Whitoa.
The twins were named Boaz and Ruth. Boat
died January 22d, 1858, ninety years and twen
ty-eight days old, and Ruth survived Boaz a few
months.”
A Bio Safe —We saw yesterday at the manu
factory of Burke & Barnes a large safe for the
vault of the Mechanic's Bank of this oily. It
is made of two plates of boiler iron, with a plate
of Bteel 3-16 of an inch thiok between them,
whioh, with Yale’s Look, render it proof against
all the skill of burglars. The pigoon holes and
all other parts are made in the strongest manner.
It is the heaviest and largest safe ever made
here, weighing probably three tons. It is a
speoimen job, and worth a oalt from our oitizens
who may have occasion for an article of that
kind.

Sonq of THABKsarvrsG.—The industry o
oultiva- ors oi tbo eol! has this year boon reward
ed by an abundant yield pf grain, fruit and veg
etables—and renewed prosperity is again felt in
every department of human enterprise.. For theso
bounties of Divine 'Providence wo should all bo
duly thankful. David, “ tho sweet stngor of Is
rael,” thas poured forth his gratitude to God, in
Psalm lxv : 9—IS ;
Thou visitost the earth, and watereth U; thou
greatly enriohest it with the river of God, which
Ib full of water: thou prepares! them corn, when
thou hast so provided for it.
Thou watereat the ridges thereof abundantly;
then settlest the furrows thereof; thou makest
it soft with showers ; thou bleßsost the springing
thereof.
Thou orownest the yeat with thy goodness,
and thy paths drop fatness.
They drop upon the pastareß of tho wilderness:
and the little hills rejoice on overy side.
The pastures are olothed with Hooks; the val
leys also are oovered over with corn ; they shoul
for joy; ihoy also sing.

The mode of Inhalation, in cases of diseased Inngs sod
throat, recommended by Dr. Our tie in his advertisement,
strikes ne as the true one. It is now generally admitted by
our best physicians, that local difficulties can only be sne
ewaofully treated by local applications. This practice baa
been pursued from the first with respect to external inflam
mation and corrosions, and we see not why diseases of the
throat and longs may not be treated In the aamj manner;
we believe they may. In this variable climate of ours,
where lung and throat complaints have become so preva
lent aod rife, we earnestly recommend to the public, and

everything recommended to him, was about to gtvo up in
