C.R. Bcckalew, U. S. S , has our thanks
for a copy of the speech of Hon. John L.
Dawson, of Pennsylvania, a the State of
the Union, delivered in the House . of Rep

On Thursday afternoon last some ten or
a dozen Government teams passed through

dred head of horses, the mos(of which

crippled rp in almost every manner. They
were part of the Nine Month's Cavalry force
which were doing tome kind of service in Lu
zerne county.
It seems that Pgr John and his man fri
day, Christian F. Kaapp, have fixed op a
ticket to be voted for, oo Friday next at this
place. ' As a matter of course the most radi
cal men are selected to compose tins ticket;
tats, who cry out "war," "the last man,"
the last dollar," and support Old Abe in
every measure, right or wrong. Dr. John
is one of those men who are in favor ot
elevating the nearo, and placing him on an
equality with the white man ; or in other
words, lowering the condition of the white
raaa on a'level with the black. This man
assumes to be a leader for a party ia this
township, forms a ticket for that party to
70te, and expects all who do not usually
vote any other but the Republican ticket,
to carry out bis wishes at his bidding. Will
you do it 1 We shall see.

Neither its importance, nor its feasi

Making the proposition in good faith,
