The house was filled to overflowing, apd never was an audience kept wider awake fdr three hours. ' ; ?Mr. Culver began by saying that he should he able to show by ‘‘facts and figures” that the gist of modern Democracy is loyalty to the slave power, : He commenced the “evidence” by 1 putting upon the stand Gov. Reeder and “Jeemes” Bu chanan, Gov. Reeder in response to the search ing interrogatories on the antecedents of his pblitigal faith, showed a glean record. He had stood by and defended Jackson, Madison,' and a}l the other old democratic patriots. ; He had never proved recreant or faltering in a single instance. Last of all he was sent by “Jeemes” aift Governor to Kansas. -But in attempting to administer impartial justice to an outraged .and innocent people, the slave power did not find that favor they anticipated—ha proved recreant, says slavery, to the interests of the Sonth ; .“off goes his head and into, the baskel.” j •■Jecraes” was next called upon the stand, lie regretted that his antecedents dated back to, and took deep root in Federalism. lie had lien deceived in boyhood, and for years had not been “sound on the goose.” But praise to las name, ho had nobly retrieved for his early injustice to Democracy in bisOatendManifesto, his endorsement of Squatter Sovereignty in bis indefatigable efforts to secure the-Drcd Scott decision, bis attempts to force upon :the people ojf Kansas the Locompton swindle, in. his sub-, sequent- repudiation ot Squatter Sovereignty and declaration to Prof. Sillitnan that slavery exists in Kansas under the Constitution as riuch as in South -Carolina or Georgia; and last of uJI. in his public endorsement and sup port of the J3b ve Code. How could democrats s|aestion his soundness ! Gov. Reeder,’ whose every act, whose political faith, is in exact keeping with those of the fathers of the coun try, is cast out °f the democratic ranks for in fidelity and treachery. Buchanan who lias fieen until of] late, a bitter opponent to De mocracy, is ijow a political saint with the • Such evidence Mr. Culver thought warranted the assertion that the only test of the “Simon pure” Democracy,- is loyalty to Slavery. J Judge Culver next took up other and nu merous “points of evidence,” and with argu ments interspersed with inimitable wit, anec dotes and eloquence, flayed the Democracy to (ha core. The farce and humbug of Douglas’ .Squatter Sovereignty was completely used up. It was clearly shown that the platforms of the {v e democratic parties are essentially the same 6n the subject of slavery—one declaring fra Slave Code directly, the other through the Su preme Court. • The immi culate Democracy, was proven to. Tjo a disunion party —the infalible Wise a traitor path a hi st of his Southern compeers And plotters of insurrection and disunion from ptofidn c.ise of the election of a Republican President. ■ But our pen is too feeble and our memory 100 poor to give an epitome of this masterly hod eloquent speech of Judge Culver. ; Won’t Meet ms Opponent. —When we saw it announced that Mr. Foster had accepted an • Alleged challenge from Col. Curtin to stumpj the State in company, wo regarded it as a mere flurry whiph would amount to nothing in tho pnd. Subsequent events show that wa were pnrrect in this opinion. Like the valiant Mr. Pryor, who sent tho challenge to Mr. Potter, Mr. foster has managed to get out of the diffi -cultV by finding fault with and objecting to tho arrangements, and thus putting a stop to the whole affair. Mr. McClure; in behalf of Cid; ■Curtin, sent a list of the appointments of the; patter gentleman to Gen. Foster, andi cordially] invited him to join his opponent in the discue-j sion of the political questions now Before the jepantry, at. these meetings. This did nut suit jtho democratic candidate, as it would have bad the effect to bring Kim on the stump at once, iwhich he is aware.at this time would prove too jhot a place for him. Wo are therefore to have hio discussion, for tho reason that the deino (cratic chicken won’t fight. When put in. a Stight place he is tod opt to take to the woods?— iPittsburg Gazette. i | i Hqn. D.

PROM tke - I “The Office, of! County Commissioner.’’ : fo the Editor of the Ajitator. [ - | An article appeared in the! Tioga Co. Demo crat of Sept. 19th,j!860, over!the ! signature of t'Elkland” with the above title, which contains lo much of error, such an evident want of oan .for, and snehafr unjust-imputation upon the (motives and conduct- of the Commissioners, as (o' require. some police. Having waited for {some one else to speak outlonj this subject until !hsro is room to apprehend that the task of vin licating the action of the Commissioners will ieleft to some one| not familiar with the facts of he case, I desire to submit the following sim ple statement of facts in justice to myself and toy colleagues: j ; j Ist. It is, or should be kriown, that the law prescribes the m,inner in' which the notion of the Commissioners upon any; such object is to |io obtained. It requires tjhe,Court upon com plaint made, to charge tbelGrand. Jury to esam ■jne into the condition of the public buildings knd report their finding to the Court; After {two saccessive findings by gficceasiva Grand Ju ries. declaring the; Jail a nuisance, and reeom- Incnding tlio erection of a| new one, or the re pair Of the old, it becomes! the duty of the Com missioners to act in accordance with such find ing. Should they, neglect or refuse so to do, {they are liable to indictment, For several years the Court has directed the attention of the Grand Jury to the old Jail in [the basement of the Court House ; and not two ;pnly, but several Grand Juries bare declared 'the Jail a nuisance, and ns such have returned it to the Court. Public sentirtient in all sections ;’of the county rendered the 'same verdict long {since. Not county pride alone, but every con sideration of humanity required the erection ■of a Jail in which offendersjmight be retained ‘in custody without being [judicially murdered by the poisonous; miasma of; a damp, under ground, unventilatcd Jail.] The Commissioners were under legal obligations to erect a hew Jail as I have shown, or hje liable to indictment fby any ofte interested. Thay were urged to do Iso by citizens from every portion of tho cnnnty {with a singular unanimity, hod finally a decent Iregard for the life and health of those who for Isome petty offence might b; sentenced to a term fin the county Jail, or who from inability to pay {■cost -might be detained la icostody, required Ithem to act. i j 2d. The decision made ,to build, and the nest question was, what sort! of a building shall we ereut ? Here again the! law requires our at tention. By reference to law it will be [seen that the Commissioners after adopting a plan of building, are required to submit that plan to the Secretary of the Commonwealth for his approval. The Commissioners in order the better to do their duty in this matter, examined the plans* which had been! approved and were on file in the Sedretary’s^pffice. The expense of these range from, §30,000 ,to §lOO,OO0 —those were above our,(reach. They then went to work nor the purpose devising n! plan which should [be cheaper and lyet be sufjiciently large and [strong to secure the approval of the Secretary of the Common Wealth for! a plan which costs but J as much as; the cheapest of the plan? on file in the Secretary's office. | ■ , In view of these facts I| submit to the judg ment of the intelligent voters of the county whether the article to whitfh I 1 alluded in the beginning is fair and jostL i r- , ■The Commissioners believe they know the author of the article, and j have had from him time ami again an expression of; opinion in fa- 1 vor of building the new Jlail, hut to the public? he is invisible, because conscious of the unfair ness of his statements, andjthe injustice towards us of his present position!, l he conceals himself" under the name of a placejwliich though it may once have been, yetis notjnbw his place of res idence. 1 I j Lot him come out from behind his veil, and if honast in what he says 1 list him take the re sponsibility of ilia sentimpntS, and explain to us and to thd hublio why lie now assaults us for what he formerly advised. Blossljurg, Ort. Ist, 1800 J JonM James. P. S. The clock referred to in the article of the Democrat was purchased in part by the county and in part by theicorporation of AVells bnro, and done sntirely uAder Democratic rule. Since the elevation of tile! same it has been kept in repair by the corporation. I think it would have been well if the gentleman had more fully informed himself ;on the clock mat ter previous to bis attack on the present G itn -missionors. .< ~ J. J. Foster's Platform.— Mr. Henry D. Foster obstinately refuses to tell; whether ho Douglas or Breckinridge foy President." It be comes necessary, therefore, to ascertain his standing, to advert to the position of the Con vention [ whicll nominatedj i him, and whoso views hi endorsed.. The Reading Convention passed the following; I j “Resolved, That we regard the domestic and foreign policy of President,!Buchanan as emi nently patriotic, pure, .conservative and just, and we look upon the success which has crown ed his labors sis the best snd proudest vindica tion of.the propriety and wiidom of his Admin istration." 1 • i i >. • It will be remembered tbpt neither the Doug las nor Breckinridge Convention would enenm ber itself with the odium of Buchanan's Admin . istration. Yet Foster’s Convention did eagerly : « mine the load, and endorsed ail Buchanan’s vile and foolish acts —Lecoiiptonism not excep-- ted 1 j i Foster’s Convention also .re-endorsed the “Porgressive Free Trade” [Plank in the Cin-, olnnati Platform. "And bluster accepts their ac tion and endorses it 1 | ! Mr. Poster, therefore, stands before the peo ple as the friend of Buchanan’s administration and the advodate of the Cincinnati platform.— He sustains the whole policy 1 of Buchanan as eminently wise and just, prdper, patriotic and pure." What have the Douglas men to say to that? - - ! i ’ Senator Bright don’t love Douglas any better than Douglasjhira. At a Breckinridge meeting in Indiana lately. Bright said : “We don’t intend to have Stephen A. Doug las and his cohorts crammed down our throats’; They wish to place the . Democratic party in 'tlio-positiun of a bucket tied to a dog’s tail, to bo dragged through the mtid. wherever the dug may choose to run. If ymi follow the fortunes of Douglas, ahd stand with him on tho rotten Janus faced platform, you are irrecoverably lost.” The Washington Constitution says that the result of the late election iri this State is “no evidence of John 0. Breckinridge’s strength.” Certainly not, hut it is veryieohclusivo evidence of his uteahness.-~-Louistillc:Journal, EBPOBT OS’ THE •COMMITTEES Of the Annual Fairiof the Tioga County Agricultcral Society, held at .Vrellshoto on the 26 th,27th> and '26th of Sept, ISOU. | .The Committee! on farms did not. bring in their report. ! - - ISorsEs.—Boat stallion, Ayeftrs old- and over, David Hart $5 : j2d best, M.
