Tbe Result iotlie State.
From all we can gather, the State baa
. gone Republican by a majority ranging from
J2.CC0 to 15,000,lak: jear itwas over 20 000
Had the issues been folly brecifat into dis
. eussioo, we would reeord a different result.
The radicals, however, managed to waive
Ithe issue, thereby holding the conservative
. element - 'little longer." The vote is
lighVespecial.'y in the rural districts, where
-tbe Democratic strength resides. The radi
cals were folly organized in secret leagues,
while the Democrats did not even hold pub
lic gathering, save in a few counties. Take
into consideration all the circumstance, we
bare done well in the State, mere than hold
ing cor own. -Let n not weary in well
-doing; that contiDu-e oar assaults against tbe
enemies' works, relying upon tbe correct
- nest of oar princip'es for oltimate success.
"Victory mut perch opor. oar banner, the
American people are not going to yielJ op
'heir institutions to gratify a sectional clique,
who have for five years controlled the polit
ical interests of this country. The day of
reckoning may be deferred, hut it will come
-and when it comes the greater will be its
eeomaUied crimes, making its destruction
more complete.
Newozlaad dogmas cannot live in the
-hearts o! the people. They may take root
and bear fruit for season ; bot that is all.
-Her re-Jigioue ereeds are oo narrow her

The negroes, as a race, have, for this and
litnlrrfd reasons, been most unfortunate in

taken as a synonym of renunciation. Not
nit they are, poor -creatnres, disowned or
J-f.oaQced : bot that they are deprived ol
advantages promised to sccroe from

-Tte result of all this is the necessity ol
iiile labor at the Sooth. On all sides we
hr the cry for white labor. It most cojne.
ftwhern farms of the most tempting descrip

it by becoming the property of the first

occupy them. Emigrants from tbe North or
from Europe, white men of energy, indus

supply the vacuum left by tbe destruction
of black labor, bat who will help to share as
well as reap the harvest of the fature.

-'This should be considered good news
North and Sooth, as it marks an important
epoch in the history of the pacification' of
the country. Apart from tbe unnecessary
draiu upon tbe federal treasury for their
maintenance, these negro troops were a
source of special social disturbance at tha
Sooth. Their presence galled and irritated
the whi'es, while they fostered , insolence
and idleness among the freed negroes. The
dikbandment of tbeee troops will do more
to pacify the South than any other single
act of President Johnson.
. Af-er the negroes are got rid of'lhere will
yet -remain eratr-five thousand white
troops in service. It is the intention of the
Pirsitfrnt to reduce this number to n'ty
thousand as soon as is practicable. .
The disbanding of the immense armies
of the North and South within the spaee ef
five months will be justly regarded hereaf'er
as one of the marvel -of history. In no
other country than tbe United Slates would
il have been possible. Not a little of tlie
credit for this miracle josily attaches to t'i
wie ar d conciliatory policy o! Preiident

The Trial af Elierics.
Cairo, Oct. 14. The Court for the trial
of Emerson Etheridge is now in session at
Columbus, Kentucky. Etheridge stated that
he had no objection to any member of the
Court acd wished to act as his own conns?!.
He asked the . Court to grant time to file a
plea again: lie jurisdiction of the Court.
Cairo, Oct. 15. The Court overruled the
plea of Etheridge, objecting to the jurisdic
tion of tbe Court, and be tkeo pled a plea
of- not guilty to all the charges and specifi
cations eicept the second specification, sec
ond charge, to which he plead guilty on the
Court allowing bim to introduce a whole
letter, from which an extract was maJe.
Th's letter is known as tte "Dresden letter"
and is dated June 28 h, in which he made
the declaration that Tennessee had no law
bat forcer and no semblance of civil govern
ment State or Federal, but a asorpation en
forced by tbe bayonets of negroes existed.
After some evidence for the prose-cotion the
accused presented tbe Court with a written
statement which admitted all the facts in the
first charge, viz. : the ereoorsgemenl of re
sistance to the enforcement of the laws.
Ohio Tbe Democracy of Ohio certainly,
deserves to be -congratulated for the noble
fight they made on the lOtb against the
dusky hordes of negro-soffrageism. With
the overwhelming majority of nearly sixty '
thousand against them in 1864, they bad
little encouragement for exertion. Never
theless, they did woTk well for the canse,
and nobly they have succeeded. Two
thirds, nearly, of that majority about forty
thonyand votes have been robbeJ out,
leaving Gen. Cox, tbe Shoddy candidate, tut
lit.te more 'than twenty thousand majority,
with which to commence business! With
this most encouraging result before the Ohio
Democracy, they should at once, and with
energy, organize for the next conflict
Victory will then be '.heirs beyend a proaJ-'

Prkjiet JotlJirsox ha done nothing of
late that we like better than hia notification
to certain reverecd gentlemen, who went
down to New Orleans shortly after RctlerV
occupation, and co&'Iy took possession of
such edifices there as suited them, hat they
must now give those edifices ep to tboe
who have a better title to them. The North
ern gen'lemen seem to hare been consid
erably astonished at this notice to quit, bot
we guess they have no alternative but in
obey. Rev Mr Newman, formerly of the
Fourth street church here, Is one of the "as
tonished." We thick be was aUo one of
the "exterminators'' when the war was in
progress. As like as not now, he will soon
be found among those who are abusing the
President, and pronouncing the war a fail

Tbe Apalachio well has struck not oil,
bat a flowing well of intensely salt water,
equal in density and purity to Ike Salina
water at Syracuse. We hare a specimen of
the water. It has been boiled down, and
from two pounds of water seren ounces of
beautiful pure salt have been manufactured.
When it is considered that in this, as yet,
there ia a commingling of surface fresh wa
ter, tbe raleVof the Apalachin wellwillde
manifest, besides, it is not like the Syracuse
water which has to be raised by powerful
pumps from a depth of from 700 to 800 feot.
The Apalachin well fiowes rapidly and con
tinuously. The depth is, we believe, 291
feet. We had the honor to be laughed at
when we suggested boring inOwego village
bot we cannot see why there should be
better prospects on Apalachin flats than in
our own village. Chxego Times.

The Wirzc Trial.
The record of teriimony in the Wjrze trial
makes 5,000 foolscap piges, divided into
seventy parts, and contains between 300
and 400 objections and rulings of the Court.
160 witnesses were examined cn both sides
several of whom were individually on the
stand two days for examination in chief
and cross-examination.
Mr. Baker, of the counsel for tbe defense,
thought it would take bim seren or eight
days to properly read this roa-s of testimo
in addition to the subsequent task of exam
ir.g all the points of law, and last of all the
criticisms of the statement of witnesses,
the comparison of the different classes of
testimony, and the working out of his argu
ment. Fie insisted upon having two full
weeks for the performance of this .labor,
saying it was utterly impossible for him to
complete it in a shorter period of time. The
Coon at first gave hire eight days and after
wards extended the time to tweJve days,
but Mr. Bker would take nothing (ess lhan
two weeks from Monday, and failing in this
be ch;e to submit tbe case without argu
ment. Col. Chipman, tbe Judge Advocate, is
already preparing bis argument, promising
to cover the ground on both sides, and will
read if next Wednesday, when, as is usual
in such cases, the' Court will with closed
door, proceed to consider and make up
their findings in the case before them.
PafP'Riso for War. The correspondent
ol the Philadelphia Ledger writes as fellows
from Washinaton :
"I bear from authoritative icurces that
the radicals are arming their batteries hear
ily for the great contest they are determined
lo wagaatthe nexi session of Congress.
President Johnson, they assert, is not car
rying oot the principles upon which he was
e'eced, and it is the determination of these
gent'emen that no other principles shall
govern if they can help it. One of the most
radical cf the old Senators has even gone
so far as to declare hi intention of offering
a bill of impeachment soon alter the meet
ing of, 'Congress, and advocating it with ail
his accustomed energy and determination.
The President, it is well known, is not on
mindful of the fanatical war cloud that is
rising, bot he has -cast his anchors upon a
sere bottom, and no apprehension need be
felt for the safety ol either ship or pilot.
FatalShootim; Attair. Thomas Kenne
dy, formerly of this place, was shot dead
by a man earned Herriogton, in Lemsborg,
on Wednesday nigh: last. From what we
could learn, the deceased and a friend got
into an iliercatiorj with Herringlon, when
he seized a gun to stoot them. They im
mediately graped the gun to wrest it from
bim, when he discharged it, the contents
passing through Kennedy, and kiilinz him
instantly. The remains were bronght here
for burial. Herringlon has been lodged in
jail in Lewisburg. Danville Intelligencer.
Brotal Herder of a Cfergjman in Xorth Car
olina. Petersburg, Va., Oct. 13 The Rev. Rob
ert Castleman, a well-known member of the
Protestant Episcopal Church, was brutally
murdtfrod near Gaston, N. C, on Wednesday
night last. He was returning alone from a
visit to a neighbor. The peprntrators have
not been identified. The deceased was
widely known and much beloved in Virgin
ia. Thb Origin of a Custom The Hartford
Current says that the custom of giving the
back of the pew in church to the Udies
originated in the time of the Indian wars,
when tbe male members of tha family al
ways took their muskets to church, when
it was of course very proper that they should
have the front of the pew to rof h oot to re
pel an attack. Then the inner seat was
one of safety. The men also never kbeeled
io prayer or bowed their heads, as either
waa an unsafe position.-

'Jlfoney make the mare go."
Another advantage is ifTe economy of land
and labor. Instead of imitating the old -hen,
trying to spread herself over more than her
complement of eggs, and so spoiling the
whole without hatching any; they will be
able tn confine themselvea with advantage,
to a much smaller compass of ground
Twenty acres or even ten, for many pnrpos
e would be an abundance for any individ
ual. Let any one, lor instance, turn his at
tention to raising truck or cattle or froii
or poultry, and he will see at once that be
wiil not need the tenth part of the territory
that be has now to iravel over and work
and provide for; nor wiil we have the tenth
pari of tbe care to harass'him, that he has
by his present mode of proceeding. If any
one asks, what he is to do with the remain
der of his farm? The question is eay of
solution.
As ancther advanUie, let me tell your
readers that, this is certainly the way to
make money. Who ever beard of a farmer
making anything like a fortune in a lew
years, by tbe common slow process of farm
ing 1 L et one give a single example on the ,
other side, 1 knew a man, some years ago,
who undertook to make a living by raiing
poultry. He was poor, and o-jvned no and.
He rented a ten acre field, in the neighbor
hood olBurmgton,New Jersey. He bought
a few chickens, and built a few coops on
one side of the field. He gave bis wh!e
lime and attention to this one object. Very
scon ha bad his field snrronnded with
coops, and the coops filled wiih chickens
and to'keys.hts chickens laying ail the year
rocnJ, by proper mansgeinen:, and thus re
.coring him the h:gh prices of tha scares
times. In two or three years he bought the
field, and in a few yeirs more he bad accu
mulated an independent fortune.
This is bot one instance, orre tor, that
most persans would look upon as among
the most unpromising in the category.
Suppose one of our farmers had a thousand
bens, .five hundred of them laying every
day eggs at twenty cents a dozen one
hundred dollars a day without counting
the poultry that would be sold and all this
from a lot of ground not exceeding ten acres
and not half the labor and expanse that he
has now. The same thing may be applied
to a good dairy, with bot'er at from forty o
filty cents pet pound. With cattle of the
right stock, and properly cared for summer
ar.d w;n:er,farmers have no idea what s ock
they could keep on what is absolutely wait
ed at present. And hence when butter is
high, these farmers are hardly able to sup
ply their owe families, and their poultry in
steal! o bringing them in a large Incoms,
scarcely give them eggs enough for their
own use. I could muliiply instances of the
I kind already referred tc, but will refrain for
the present. Let me however in bidding,
adieu, lo your readers, on this subject, jjst
call their attention to oar neighbor across
the river, Mr. Merceron; who is making
more money out of two or three acres, lhan
most of our farmers from a hundred and a
half.
O.v Saturday ol last week two acciJents
happened on the Philadelphia and Erie
Railroad, the one near Watsontown ar.d the
other between Money and Williamsport.
The first was caused by the Express train
running into a freight train, tbe other by the
Erie Express West coming in collision with
the freight train South. The casualties in
the two wrecks Vera three killed out right,
and several seriously woonded. The En

READ REV W. B LEE'S LETTER.
Brooklyn, N. Y., My 28fA. 1863.
Messrs. Hosttter & Smith : Gentlemm
I have used your Bitters during the last six
weeks, and feel it due to yon and to the
public "to express my hearty approval of
their effect upon me. 1 never wrot a
"puff" for any one, and 1 abhor every thing
that savors of quackery. But yonr Bitters
are entirely removed from the level of the
mere nostrums of the day. being patent a
like to all, and exactly what triey profess
to be. They are not advertised to cure ev
ery thing, but they are recommended to as
sist nature in the alleviation and ultimate
healing of many of the most common in
firmities of the body, and th they will ac
complish. I had been unwell for two
mouths, as is ooal with me during the
Spring. I was bilious, and sefbring from
indigestion, and a general disease of the
mucuons membrane, and though compelled
to keep at work in the discharae of my pro
fessional du:ies,was very weak, ol a yellow
complexion, i:o appetite, and much of the
time confined to my bed. When I had
been taking your Bitters a week my vigor
returned ; the sallow complexion was ali
gone, I relished my food, and now I enjoy
the duties ol the mental application, which
so recently were so very irksome and bur
densome lo me. Vt'ben I used your Bit
ters, I felt a change every day. These are
facts. All inference must be maJe by each
individual for bimelf.
Yours, repectfnl!v.
W. B. LEE.
Pastor of Green Avenue Piesbjterian
Church.
