IJ Taks Notice, by Geo. Couch.
1:1" The unexpected crowd of job work
in our new office, and the friendly calls of
many of our subscribers since the commence
ment of Court, has prevented us from giving
much attention to the editorial department of
the Globe this week.
The Democratic County Convention
The, Democratic delegates will meet in
Convention to-day, and we predict harmo
nious action and the nomination of a full
Democratic Ticket. The right spirit pre
vails in our ranks, and Know Nothingism
and its outside influence is begining to give
way under the pressure of popular public
opinion which is crushing it to the earth.
Wm. B. Reed's Letter.
In to-day's Globe will be found an able and
manly letter by Wm. B. Reed, Esq., to the
Chairman of the Whig State Central Committee
resigning his post as a member of said Com
inittce. Mr. R., as is well known, is one of the
ablest and most influential Whig leaders in the
State. Will the Journal publish the letter ?
It will i: its editors arc not wholly under the
control of the dark lantern party.
The Louisville Butchery
On the opposite page the reader will find the
-details in part of the bloody riots in Louisville
on the day of election, Two things are made
clear from the admission of the Know Nothing
organ published in Louisville ; first, that the
Know Nothings took possession of the polls on
Sunday night and remained there; and, secondly,
that numbers of the naturalized citizens, and
doubtless the anti-Know-Nothings were preven
ted from voting by armed and turbulent mobs!
This is certainty, says the Washington Union,
the first instance of the kind that has happen
ed in the United States; but it is a natural and a
necessary sequel of the policy of proscription
and bigotry upon which the secret party is
founded. When a political organizali in gathers
under its banner such elements, violence ono
anarchy are certain to follow. When the
know nothings took their stand against all citi
zens abroad, naturalizc;d or not, and when they
set up a religious test, it was only a natural
transition for them to resort to violence to carry
out their objects. It lies been so before and it
will be so again. «c only regret that so ninny
of our citizens should have doubted that such
would be the fruits ofthe new party. And now
that all these doubts have been dispelled by the
stubborn truth—now that the Louisville tragedy
is fired upon, and almost avowed by, its authors
=may we not hope that the (Engers oi• this
cruel and criminal combination of bad men
will be properly viewed by our countrymen ?
Our Superintendent and the Dictionary.
Without any inclination to convict the Su
perintendent of a misdemeanor or violation of
the School law, we shall proceed to state our
objections to Worcester's Dictionary.
After Mr, Webster had completed his great
work, "The American Dictionary," the pub.
fishers asked for an abridgement of the same.
Mr. Worcester was employed to perform the
ask, and hyrc he made himself familiar with
Mr. Webster's plans and various improvements,
and gained a little notoriety by being a parasite
upon the lame of the great Lexicographer.—
This unmerited,--because borrowed flunc,—led
Mr. Worcester subsequently to compile a new
work in his own name, in which we shall be
able to show that he has acted the part of a pla
giarist, filching from the fame of Mr. Webster
—and again catering to British authority—now
imitating one author, and now another : in one
edition he spells in one manner and in a later-edi
tion he spells tlic same words in another way.
His work a standard in neither country embod
ies the errors of both. Beginning with the let.
ter A, we find a dozen words differently spelled
in different editions ; under the letter B, we
find twenty ;under C, we find eighteen, and so
on through the work.
Secondly, this author is deficient in pronun
ciation, following English authors in giving the
letter s thf, sound of z in a large class of words
such as disable, dismay, disjoin, &c. What is
more disagreeable than to hear the nasal sound
of z given to the letter s, and twanged out
through an Englishman's crooked nose 7
The Dictionary is also deficient in its defini
tions. Vague and unsatisfactory, it too often
defines words by synonyms, or words meaning
the same thing,
Mr. Worcester in an effort to be original,
has coined new words, which arc not sanction
ed by good usage, and found in no other work.
As specimens we give the followingi—cookee,
poematic ; sportability, timeous, politiealism,
scribblement, &c. We are able to give about
a hundred others which may be considered
mere verbiage of the language. These arc but
slight indications of the real defects of the au
thor, but they are sufficient for our present pur
pose, and show him to be an innovator, a pla
giarist and a "pretender."
In another article we shall show why we pre.
for Webster's Dictionary.
Wino COUNTY CONVENTION.—Some fifteen or
twenty Whig delegates met in convention yes.
terday—and adjourned without making nomi
nations.
North Coralina Election
The Democrats have carried the State by
from eight to ten thousand majority. And
have elected six, and the Know Nothings
two, members of Congress. A Demociatie
gain of two.
Tennessee Election
Johnston, the democratic candidate is elec
ted Governor by about two thousand majori-
Kentucky Election.
In Kentucky the Know Nothings seem to have
had it pretty much all their own way. Moore.
head, Whig K. N., is elected by a majority of
seven or eight thousand.
Alabama Election.
John A. Winston, Democrat, is elected
Governer orAlabama. by a large majority. The
Congressional delegation will stand five Demo.
crats and two Know-Nothings.
Boys, take Warning
Yesterday, Esq. Snare committed two boys to
jail for defacing and tearing down bills. Any
p.2rson, young or old, guilty of defacing or tear
ing down any other bills printed at the Globe
office, shall be dealt with in the same manner.
'-' The removal of Governor Reeder, of
Kansas, by President Pierce, has greatly agi
tated a few of the Democratic presses and all of
the opposition. The facts appear to justify the
conduct of President Pierce in removing Gov.
R., for it is not denied that Gov. R., with others,
had engaged in a grand land speculation,—and
for this he was removed. President Pierce
will see the laws faithfully executed.
TIIF: "Buono Tor Plc ne."—Our young
folks had quite a happy time of it on Thursday
last, at "Fountain Grove" on the Broad Top
Rail Road eight miles above this place. At 10
o'clock on said day, a passenger car died to
overflowing with the life of the "ancient bor
ough," and a double freight car loaded down
with the good things provided for the occasion,
slid out of town. All returned (the eatables
and d— excepted) in good time, delighted
with the excursion.

The Experience of a Know Nothing.
A citizen of Morgan county, Indiana, who
had been seduced into a Know Nothing, council,
gives the result of his experience to the public,
through the Martinsville Monitor, in the fillow_
tag pregnant paragraph :
" - Reader, you may think you hate Know
Nuthingisin ; but until you are initiated into its
secrets, and witness something of the height
and depth of its iniquity, the solemn mockery of
its rituals,
and the completeness of its tyranny,
its fiendlike indifference and its utter disregard
of moral honesty, you will not know what to
detest. Then, ir you are true to yourself; your
country, and your God, you will have so great
a detestation for the order that you will avoid a
bona fide member as a political demagogue,
and shun a lodge as a Upas tree."
Military Encampment
Agreebble to notice the officers of the 4th
Brig. 14th Division P. M., met at Spruce
Creek, on Tuesday Augt. 7th 1855, to fix the
time and place for Division Encampment—
the other officers of the other Brigades,
members of the.committee, failing to attend
—the meeting 'yas organized by calling Maj.
Gen. JOHN C. WATSON, to the chair, and
appointed Capt. Geo. DARE, Secretary. The
President stated the object of the meeting—
and after some consultation among the com
mittee as to the time and place for the
encampment a vote was taken and it was
decided to hold it, comniencing on Tuesday
October 16th, at Huntingdon, and to continue
for three days.
Editors of 14th Division will please pub
lish the above.
JOHN C. WATSON, Prest
GEORGE DARE, Sect.
11 NOTIIIT.II R.ECRUI T.-Mr. Brown, editor ufthe
Marion, Indiana, Republican, formerly a Whig
paper, announces that hereafter he will be found
battling with the great democratic party of the
country. The Rook Island Democrat says—
" The editor of the Republican is not the only
ivhig editor in the north who has lately had to
join the democracy, owing to the fact that the
leaders of that once powerful party have merg
ed it into the abolition know.nothing proscrip
tive party. Thousands of patriotic and nation
al whigs among the masses are also joining the
democracy, rather than lend their aid to the dis
organizing and traitorous schemes of the aboli
tion demagogues and fanatics of the north.—
We again assert that the next presidential race
will be between the abolitionists, know-noth
ings and disunionists on the one side and the
national democracy, aided by all national whigs
on the other ; and in such a contest, who can
doubt the ttiumplumt success . of the democracy,
the party that has ever upheld the constitution
al rights of all sections of the country, as guar
anteed to them under the constitution ?"
Who axe the Know Nothings
A correspondent of the Baltimore Clipper,
says:.
"The Know Nothincs comprise the best ;
and purest ; and noblest men of the land, look
where we may, whether to the easy he west,
the north or south. The ablest and patriotic
men that were in the ranks of both the old
pasties advocate the American principles of
the new party."
Now, we would ask any intelligent man to
cast his eyes around, among. the "ablest and
prtriotic men that were in the ranks of both
the old parties," and say who of them is now
found advocating "the American principles
of the new party." Not one ! Of all the
great men of our nation—the men of pure
patriotism and gigantic intellects, who have
for years been recognized as statesmen, in the
proper acceptation of the term,—not one is
to be found in the ranks of Know Nothing
ism ; on the contrary every one, whose voice
has at all been heard upon the subject; has
condemned "the American principle of the
new party," In the most emphatic terms.
Thcy are some—Gabe, the illegal voter,
and editor of the Huntingdon Journal—and
the ‘friend" of the editors of the Huntingdon
American who hunts Sag Nichts in the neigh
borhood of hen-roosts. They are beauties—the
opposition must be scarce of mate! id for
lea
ders.
The Siege of Sebastopol
The advices by the Baltic show slow pro
gress in the siege operations, and nothing gain
ed by the A Ilies, upon which any hopes of ulti_
mate success may be predicted. They are pre
paring, according to account, for another as
sault, in which both the land and naval forces
will participate. This is probably for the pur
pose of dividing the Russian garrison, and com
pelling them, during the assault, to keep the
batteries facing the sea manned, as well as
those facing the land. But if the Russians
have recived the reinforcements recently report,
ed, they can well 'keep a full garrison in each
fort, and still have enough men to repel the at_
tack on the Malakoff, That they have a large
force is evident from their recent movement
against Kars and Erzeroum—a moveme it which
threatens the Turkish frontier in Asia, notwith
standing the presence of the Allied forces in the
Black Sea, and may compel the Allies to send
the Asiatic Turks the reinforcement they ask.
Russsia is playing the game of war skilfully,
and with greater, strategy than the Allies, who
find each day an additional amount of labor
prepared for them to execute before they call .
themselves masters of the Crimea, or are able
to dictate terms to Russia, limiting her naval
power in the Black Sea. The destruction of
the new French battery before the Malakoff
shows that the sorties of the Russians are pro
ducing the mischief intended, though Pelissier
continues to report that the "enemy was again
last night gloriously repulsed in a sortie."--
From all evidences presented, we do not see
that Sebastopol is any nearer falling than it
was seven months ago. ' The approaches are
now so near, that the firing tells on both sides
with terrible effect,
The - Unwavering Democracy .
Notwithstanding the desperate ,and perse
vering efforts of the secret and allied order
of Abolitionism'and Bigotry, by misrepre
sentation and flattery, to draw the Democra
cy into its spider's web, they (most truly
remark a cotemporary,) nave most signally
failed. Onr ranks were never firmer than
now, and the great principles which are the
base of the Democratic policy never presen
ted themselves to the country in a stronger
light. From time to time, as occasion has
offered, or they were called upon to do so,
the old standard bearers of the Democracy
have promptly taken decided grounds against
the secret organization and proscriptive doc
trines of Know Nothicgism; and many even,
who, from long and arduous service, were :
entitled to repose, have been 'brought to a
new energy, by the new dangers that threat
en the country, and are now found battling
with all their might, against this new and se-1
cret foe, all the spirit of intolerance, fanati
cism and illiberality it has sought to engen
der. There has been no compromise, conces
sion, or dalliance, and no quasi toleration of;
the rnidi.ight conspirators because they were
particularly nurnel ens in this or that locality.
Their political heresies have been openly
met, openly discussed and openly denounced
in the burning language of outraged patriot- !
ism.
PRESENCE: OF IVIIND-ESCAPE FROM A
XIADmAN.—The Chicago Press tells the fol
lowing story :
"A lady was one evening in her drawing
room alone, when the only inmate of the
house, a brother, who had been betraying a
tendency to unsoundness of mind, entered
with a carving knife in his hand, and shut
ting the door came up to her and said :'Mar
garet, an odd idea has occurred to me. I
wish to paint the head of John the Baptist,
and I think yours might make an excellent
study for it. So, if you please, I will cut off
your head. The lady looked at her brother's
eye, and, seeing no token of jest, concluded
that he meant - to do as he said. There was
an open window and balcony by her side,
with a street in front, but a moment satisfied
her that safety did not lie in that way. So,
putting on a smiling countenance, she said
with the greatest apparent cordiality; "That
is a strange idea, George ; but would, it not
be a pity to spoil this new lace tippet I :
have got on will just step to my room
and put it off, and be with you again in half I,
a minute." Without waiting to give him
time to consider, she stepped lightly across
the floor and passed out. In another mo
ment she was safe in her room, whence she
easily gave alarm and returned, when the
madman was secured.
Heart-rending Calamity.
On Wendesday evening last, a gentleman liv.
ing near Communipaw Lane, Hudson county
o.—we have not learned his name—met with a
sudden and untimely end, under the following
circumstances. It appears that he had in his
house a three barreled pistol, loaded. fie told
his wife he believed he would discharge the
loads. She replied that she would like to fire
them off—to which he consented, instructing
her to be careful to point the pistol upward.—
She did'so, and two barrels went off; the third,
she told him, missed fire.
Hereplied that perhaps it might not be load
ed, and, requested her to hand it to him for ex
amination. But alas ! for all human calcula
tions—she snapped it again ; it proved to be
loaded, and she holding it in a wrong position,
instead of the ball going upward, it entered
the heart of her husband killing him instantly.
The married couple were'devotedly attached to
each other, and we learn that the unfortunate
self-made widow, is now frantic with agony,
bordering on insanity, in view of this terrible
Catastrophe.
A Pointed Appeal
A correspondent of the Augusta (Ga.) Con
stitutionalist, over the signature of "A Ma
son and Odd Fellow," uses the following
pointed arid convincing language :
"I am of foreign birth, and of Roman Cath
olic parentage, yet a Protestant in faith and
expect to remain so, unless this know-Noth
ing inquisition serves to drive me from the
church into the wilderness ; for I lay it down
as a fixed fact that the child who is wanting
in regard for his parents while living is wor
thy of no respect or confidence ; and the
child who can tolerate abusles of the creed or
principles of his parents when dead is too pue
erile and mean to merit the esteem or 'confi
dence of any man or party. For this reason,
then, I despise this midnight monster.
"Again, I am a mason, likewise an Odd
Fellow ; and, for 'very many years, have re
garded these men as my covenanted brethren,
whose plighted honor bound them to help me
in my distresses, defend my fair name, and
honor me as an equal. How can they forget
and lay aside these first obligations, to swear
and enter into a league to degrade me, or any
of the hundreds of Masons and Odd Fellows
who happen to be of Catholic parentage or
foreign birth?
"These are the emotions of mind under
which I am passing, trying all the time to
bring myself to believe that, in the church,
my brethren, who advise and pray for me,
have not considered the matter as it affects
social relations, and need but to be directed
to a proper contemp!ation of the spirit of sus
picion and distrust it must engender to aban
don its unhallowed loadings; and that my
brother Masons and Odd Fellows will, from
these hints thrown Ciat in fraternal kindness,
see the inconsistency and unreasonableness
of taking a new obligation that, in its effects ;
tends to annual and destroy the first, the old
er, the purer, and better covenants of Faith,
Hope, and Charity, and of Friendship, Love,
and truth."

Gentle zephyrs blow ye lightly
Over,the place where sleeps the dead,
Where the moon beams shining brightly,
hover round the narrow bed;
For where yonder ivy creeps,
Is the place where GARRETTSON sleeps.
When he lived he knew butgladness,
Every joy was all his own,
Rut the night of grief and sadness,
When his spirit hence had limn,
Came upon us—thus we weep
Over him that now cloth sleep.
Angel wings have born his spirit
To a purer land above,
Where the blest forever inherit
All the Father's holy love,
And while love its vigils ltc'ep
In the cave where GAICRETTSON sleeps
%Vhen the night of death came o'er him,
And his eyes began to close
Happy dreams went on before him
Calling him to sweet repose,
Any he fell in slumber deep.
Leaving us below to weep.—
Then we laid his little fingers
Quietly across his breast—
Often now his memory lingers
As if by divine behest,
And th{ ugh his reward he reaps,
We will mourn hint while he sleeps
Then sweet zephyrs whisper lightly,
Over that sacred hallowed spot,
Where the moon beams sparkle brightly--
Ah ! it cannot be forgot,
For where yonder ivy creeps
Is the place where GAttnETTsori sleeps-
