at Mr. Shrinet's, al, Northumberland, and
clandestinely transacted tho business of
choosing a site Tor tlio location of the county
buildings.
And now let me' ask, what course V.Best
has token' vrith regard to local matters in this
county I Has ho ever wished to mako tho
removal question a test point at any elec
tion? No but on the contrary ho has ever
labored to blind the eves of men in this par
of the coiinty( by the promise of office, and
jfthe removal question was mentioned, ho
lias been struck with surprise, that the pco'
plo should think of such a thing, as it was
only a whig measure, and got up for a po
litical hobby upon which tho bankito wished
to ndo into offico.and in this way.ycar afier
yearhavo wo been cheated by tho opposcrs
of removal.
But of late, the pcoplo of this part of tho
county, have resolved that they would no
longer employ Mr. Best to think for themt
hut havo gone to thinking for themselves,
and this Mr. Best found to his cost, tho last
visit ho msde up to this part of tho county.
And now all the friends of removal have to
do, is to stand shoulder to shoulder, and uso
nono but fair and honorable means, and wo
shall see the removal tickot elected by
at least one thousand majority. And this
our Danville friends may rest assured of,
for Mr. Best in Ii i 3 Inst visit in this part of
the county, in drawing tho card of dictation
closer, broke tho magic instrument, and
instantly tho spell which has long bound
many an honest mind in error was dissipated
and tiio mask fell and disclosed all the un
righteous proceedings of tho division party
in their native ugliness. And now removal
is tho watch word of tho day. The motto
which we inscribo upon our banner, and let
it float to tho breeze of heaven. It is that
which cheers the farmer while at his plough.
It is that which animates the mechanic at
his occupation, and urges him on to an in
creased attention to business in these dull
limes.
Removal from office of all negligent and
liufailhful public servants, in whatever slate
they may bo found.
Removal of ignorance and prejudice from
thc minds of men, that they may sco tho
light of truth and justice.
Removal of tho county seat of this county
from Danville to Blooinsburg or some more
central point. And Removal of Felty Best
from tho office of Dictator of Columbia
county. Theso are Ihe Removals that I go
for.

At the hqpd of our paper wc have placed
the ticket formed at tho Removal aud Anti
Division Convention, on Monday last, and
we are gratified to learn that it gives univer
sal satisfaction of
DANIEL SNYDER,
tho candidato for Assembly it is unnecessa
ry for us to say a word. IJe has represent
ed tho county fur the past two years, and
with whal unflinching fidelity ho has per
formed liis'duty to his constituents is known
to ill. Ho now suffers himself to ba again
a candidate at the urgent solicitation of his
removal friends, that he may cany out the
work ho so nobly commenced last winter,
effectually destroy the division project
and bring about a removal of tho seal of
justice of the county, a measure so earnest
ly desired by a largo majority of the citi
zens of tho county. Of his election their
cannot ho a shadow of doubt, if his icmoval
and anti-division friends do but their duty.
JOHN B. EDGAR,
tho candidato fur Commissioner, is every
way qualified fur the office. He is a good
mechanic, a good citizen; and will make a
good Commissioner.
JOHNSTON 1KELER,
is a worthy respectable fanner, well quali
fied for the station for which ho is a candi
date. Ho will protect tho interests of the
county by seeing that the accounts of the
offices aro correctly Audited. '
The candidato for Prolhonotnry.
JACOB EYERLY,
icquircs no recommendation at our hands.
Ho is well known for his prompt business
habits, and correct manner with which he
has heretofore performed tho duties of tho
office. He will bo elected.
CHARLES CONNOR,
the candidato for Register and Recorder, is
a young man, of prompt energetic, business
habils.a good pensniai,nid a ready'copyicst
and with all a good removal man. His
election is certain.
We havo never witnessed a county con
vention where more union and harmony of
feeling prevailed, than al the Removal con
vention on Monday last, Every delegate
appeared to feel the importance of a union
among all the real friends of the county, to
effect a removal as the only preventative of
that worst ol all curses that could befall tho
county, a diviiion. Upon this feeling ev
ery member acted. It was not whether
this or thai man was to bo placed upon tho
ticket, but what was best calculated to bring
about the object for which all felt a deep
and anxious solicitude, that actuated them
in their deliberations. This feeling pro
duced tho ticket placed at our head, and this
same feeling among tho people will elect it
with an overwhelming majority. A major
ity that shall hereafter put down all oppo
sition to ll'O glorious cause of "Equal
Rights" and "Exact Justice," and make
tho Danvillo faction do what they promised
they would do at Hatrisburg, last winter,
should Daniel Snyder be re-elected, give
up the contest." We call then upon every
real friend of tho best interest of Columbia
county, to give their voto for Daniel Snyder
and thus give "along pull, a strong pull &
a pull altogether," thai1, justice may take
place, and keep little Columbia, what she
now is, a good little county
It will be perceived by the proceedings of
tho county convention that DanielSnyder is
recommended as a candidate for the Legis
lature in favor of a Removal and opposed to
Division. It is but an actofjustico to Mr.
Snyder, that he should be sustained by the
twenty-eight hundred voters in the county
who petitioned for (he Removal, and in
structed him to advocate it. He procured
the passage of a bill through the house,
leaving it to tho people to decide this ques
lion among themselves. It was opposed
hy tho Danville people, because they
know that a majority of tho county were
against them. They wero unwilling that a
majority should govern and aro determined
that the rights of tho majority shall not be
respected. Then lot the friends of removal
rally around Mr. Snyder, and say to him,
'well done, thou faithful servant," by
giving him their votes and ratifying the
course he pursued in tho Legislature ir.
compliance with their instructions, and our
word for it, tho Danvillo and Berwick
gentry will have a hard task next winter to
procure a division, or prevent a removal.
They know it well, therefore they will not
stop at any thing that intrigue and misrep
resentation can effect to defeat him.
BE ASSESSED. .
Tho law requires that every man should
bo Aseessod, at leasl TEN DAYS beforo
tho Election to entitle him to a vote. See
to it, and have your names entered on the
Assessors hooks in time.

CONGRESS
Adjourned on Wedneslay last after a
session of about Qiao months.
The d.ivision convention was held in this
placo on Monday last, and after a good deal
of cutting and carving of delegates, Ihey
passed a resolution placing in nomination
for Assembly, Richard Fruil, of Madison,
so that, if he was elected; ho might assist
Senator Headloy in culling and carving up
the county to his "hearts best" The pco
plo of tho county now havo two candidates
for tho Legislature beforo them. Daniel
Snyder pledg ed by A is acts, and his ivord
to oppose division, and Richard Fruit,
pledged by his' connection if not by hit
word, to sustain division. Choose yo be
tween them, and thus give your voto for or
against division.
THE TARIFF BILL.
Has passed both houses of Congress and
has been signed by the President. Both of
our Senators voted for it.
We are glad to learn that our old friend
Col C M Stranb; of Schuylkill county, has
been nominated for re-election to the Legis
lure, There can be no doubt of liis elec
tion ,
THE LATE TREATY.
It appears that the lato Treaty was objec
tionable, and justly so, wo conceive, because
it did not settle all the questions now agita
ted by the two countries- It is rumored
llial a sort of apology is made for the Caro
lino massacre, and we observe that England
yields the right of search. Siill thJ other
questions remain unsettled- This wa3 a jusi
cause of opposition to the Treaty.

Important from Mexico. Tempest in
Ttaporl John L. Doreey, Esq, bearer
of despatches from Mexico to our Govern
ment; arrived at Savannah last week having
left Vera Cruz on iho 17th tilt.
Tho despatches ate of a vety important
character in relation to our difficulties with
Mexico. Great excitement prevailed to
wards the government of the United Stales.
A violent and inflammatory proclamation
was issued tho day before Mr. D.'s depar
ture, calling upon the citizens to unite and
resist the aggressions of tho U. Stales,
denouncing our citizens as thieves, scoun
drels, The whole of tho lato Texan prisoners
wero at Vera Ciuz, waiting for a vessel to
convey them to Galvaston.
The Mexican army amounts to 50,000
effective men, and was constantly on the
increase; upwards of 20,000 had been or
dered to the invasion of Texas. The
Mexican navy also had been increased.
The government has purchased two war
steamers in England.
Mr. Webster's letter in reply to Mr
Bocanegro had not arrived. Mr. Bocane.
gro has resigned his seal in the cabinet, and
was succeeded by Mr- Alaman. There
were other hostile indications towards this
country.
Important from Texas. Tho New
Ot leans Picayune has received Gal-eston
papers to ihe Gth inslant, which give the
particulars of a projected campaign across
the Rio Grande, authorized by the execu
tive. Tho services of thirteen hundred
men are to be received ihey are to elect
their own officers and havo permission
to levy contributions upon tho Mexican
towns for their support
The Picayune says; after the above was

received a letter from Gaiveston, informing
him on tho authority o( Col. Cook
that every merchant vessel in the port of
it r-. i.. r r. . . .

bren pressed to convey Mexican troops to

A SHOCKING DEATH.
A young man, named William Shoema
ker, of Fruiistown,?Colur.bia county, was,
as wo learn from the Danville Democrat,
killed on the 18th inst. in the following
shocking manner. He went to tho stable,
after dinner1 for the purpose of harnessing
tho horses One of them being of an un
ruly kind, it issuposcdhchadsome difficul
ty in bridling linn, ivhercby his foot
became fastened to one of the traces. The
horse ihcn ran out of the stable dragging
the unfortunate ?young man after him al
full speed for above 000 yards beforo he
was caught, over a pile of logs posts, &c.
fracturing his skull, aud lacerating his
face in a dreadful manner, so much so that
ho never spoke afterwards, and expired in
in about one hour. His father and brother
were witnessess to the scene.
INCENDIARISM.
Two Bridges Burnt. We learn that
two bridges over the Schuylkill, just above
Laurel Hill, were destroyed hy fire between
12 and 1 o'clock on Friday morning. The
first belonged to the Reading Railroad Com
pany, while the oilier, just below, was; we
believe a Count Bridge, recently negotia
ted fir by a private company, Lnt generally
used by the public. The fire was fust dis
covered by a woman in the toll-house or iho
Old Bridge, and the alarm had scarcely
been given before the other caught. It is
believed that the first bridjo was set on fire
and that turpentine and tar were employed.
Some of the boatmen ate suspected, and a
reward of S1000 has been offered by tho
Company for the offenders. The watch
man on tho Railroad Bridge made an effort
to stop the progress of the flames, as did
many of the cilizons who hastened to tho
spot, Indeed, a number of persons from
Germantown hurried to tho scene. The
fire produced a great light, and presented a
splendid appeaiance. Tho Company state
that thc injury sustained is to tho extent of
812,000, and that the detention of trade
will be but temporary.
