nut merely whether thif. or that political
party shall triumph, whether this or that

--but whether the county ehall bo ruined
by a division or be kept together by

Iitsuved That wo view the attempt of
a lew reckless speculators to cut and earve
up llio county merely lor the advancement
ol their own personal inicrcst, tegardless of

Iiesovtd That the faction who surround
the Danville Intelligencer, by issuing their
ic. ndiilous hand bills, abusing and Marnier
lag Daniel Snyder and his friends, deserves
tin tcverest censure that a community can
heuow upon them.

The piety of tho Algenne was moth
shocked at the idea ol our atlendiuu a camp
mcetinc near Berwick, hut it appears that
his religious scruples, were like hU-coo
science, Mlirown to lite den' on Bunilav
last, tvhilu he was travelling through the
upper portion of the county electioneering,
particularly while drinliiiig, carousing, and
... i .... .
electioneering in a bar-room, making so
much distuibani'C that the neighbors lineal
cued to prosecute htm lor a breach of the
Sabbath. These things may do iu Algiers
but they will not be countenanced in Co
lumbia county, any more than his raking
up the ashen of the dead lo vent his fiendish
dispoiitio'i upon the living. Look out,
Jllgr.rine you may gel nabbed the third
time.
John Fruit was in the upper end of ihe
county electioneering against lho removal,
upon the grounds thai Danville was not
wiilfui eeuirmiles of Northumberland hue,
and lint should the removal take place, ihe
lower part ol tho county would go tiff io
Northumbctlaiid. What nonsense. 'Small
potatoes t?iat very.'
Il is said thai John Rhodes has
taken up
his residence in Roaring Creek and Mifflin
until after the election. We wonder in
which township he intends voting. Whcie
does he get his washing and mending
done? Remember that will be the quesiiun,
when you ofiei your vote.
By the way, whore does he get the giiv
gcr cakes thai lie says ho can buy lho
voters of Roaring Creek wilh. He uitict
yet a largo supply, if he always nibbles
them first.
John Fruit declares that he can and ivill
elect his brother Richard. Who elected
him sheriff? Was it himself, or the people?
He boasts so much of his ability io e.eet
any man in (lie county that lie pleaM-s,
perhaps he had Metier bring inluwlhe field
aooilcr member of his family fur l'roihono
tary. There is now but one candidate for
that office, and il is no more than fair that
he should take care of all of his family as
he has the power. The people will no
doubt do as he bids. Butter try it.
