FELLOW CITIZEN'S OF HUNTINGDON' COUN
TY looking over the "Hontincrdon
Globe" of last week, I was very much sur
prised to see that I was nominated a camli
date for the office of County Cammissicmer.
I would therefore announce to the citizen,
of the County of Huntingdon, that through
bodily infirmities and other goo I reasons, it
is impossible for me to accept the nomina
tion, as I had previously formed a determin
ed resolution not to serve in any public office
of any kind, but live a retired life, as much
as my circumstances and business will ad
mit of. I also declare that lam as much op
posed to Know Not hingism audits principles,
as any other true Democrat in Huntin gdo
county. Respectfully Yours,
GEORGE EBY, Sr.
Aughwick Mills, September 3, 1855.

cratic Cenventions having been notified that

( - "Certain Kno't'v Nothing leaders made
the assertion in our town until the rumor
became a general belief, that the Whigs in
and about Petersburg, with but very few ex
ceptions, had joined the Know Nothings—
all belonged to the secret order, was the ex
pression.—(They had not the audacity to
say that the Democrats belonged.) It hap
pens that a secret correspondence from that
quarter ‘v ith the edit Ors of the Journal, show
that the Whig party almost entire are in
favor of the "Fusion Ticket." Whigs in
that section of the highest character of va
rious religious denominations, with a singu
lar unanimity, have forewarned the public
against the demoralizing proscriptive oath
bound combination. See the correspon
dence.
The brag game is the one the Know Noth
ings depend upon for success. Those idle
reports of their numerical strength, bold and
unqualified assertions that they will carry
the elections by large majorities, etc., are all
made for effect. They know better.

Our Ticket
The Democratic and Whig parties, who
abhor secret political cabals, and midnight
conspiracies, have placed in nomination a fu
sion ticket to be supported by all freemen in
the county. We shall notice the candidates
in order.
Dr. SOHN IVlcCuLLoctr for Assembly, is a
gentleman of character and ability—and for
merly represented this- district in Con
gress, to the satisfaction of his constituents.
.[bra quarter of a century, he has lived in
our midst, and time and dcquaintance has
only added to his reputation as a man and
a citizen. In politics he has always been
honest; and now, in--common with all true
men, repels a political scheme, which would
bind the consciences of men by fearful and
blasphemous oaths and underhanded-strata
gem, to the will and schemes of a few lead
ers. In connexion with Dr. McCuLLoex, the
opposition to know-nothilgism will support
DAVID HaFrus, Esq., for Assembly—nomi
nated by our friends in Blair county. Mr.
Horius, is also a gentleman of decided abili-
ty,—a ripe scholar—arid served his country
in the late war with Mexico. He was a
Lieut. in Capt. Taylor's company of Penn
sylvania Volunteers.
COI. GRAFIUS MILLER, of this place ; for
formerly of Barree township, that land of in
dependent and honest men, is our candidate
for Treasurer. In addition to his acknowl
edged fitness, and superior claims, all who
have the happiness of his acquaintance,' and
they are many, will bear us out in saying
that a more pleasing, courteous, and gentle
manly mart does not reside in our county.
JOHN LONG, of Shirleysbnrg, our candi
date for Commissioner, is one of nature's no
blemen . Thoroughly acquainted with the de
tails of business, the affairs_ and interests of
our county, an honester man does not live.
Nor wilt any be hardy enough to say that he
would not make one of the best County Corn
missioners we have ever had.
McNITE, of Shirley township,
the candidate for Director of the Poor, is a
gentleman of fine qualifications—a firm, hon
est, energetic man. No better officer could
be selected ; and besides, the interests of the
county in that department demands the elec
tion of a Director on the ground--near the
Poor House, and within immediate reach of
its operations.
GEORGE BELL, for .Coroner, is a firni .and
energetic son of Barree,—a gentleman of
character kind intelligence, and well fitted for
any office.
DAVID F. TUSSEY, of Porter, tp., for Audi
tor. A man of the first respectability". For
pr obity, integrity, and general worth, he has
no snpeiior in this or any other county. He
is - intelligent, amply qualified, and deeply in
terested in our coon tv affairs.
This, citizens of the county, is the ticket
presented to you : in opposition to the ticket
produced by the hidden alchemy of the cor
rupt sharks, who lead the secret order. Its
nomination is not the fruit of midnight
schemes or secret fraud—but the free, open,
And manly choice of the untrammeled free
men of the county. Give it your undivided
support. The opposition scattered among
you, educated in duplicity, will ask you to
vote their ticket. They hope to succeed on
ly by deceiving outside voters. They have
not strength enough of their own--and if
the opponents of Know Nothingism are but
true to themselves, a noble victory is certain.
They are opposed to fusion, because, their
own defeat is written in the word. Why
should any man who is not a member of. that
order ally himself with its corrupt purposes ?
What return will it ever give, but sneers at
your credulity ? Who ever heard of a Know
Nothing voting for any man out of the or
der? He dare not do it. "With what jukr
rnent they mete, let it be meted to them
aaain "
•
Know Nothing Ticket
The various Councils of this county were
brought to bed and labor upon the several
nights of last week, and brought forth a ban
tling which from head to foot we are-inform
ed presents the following features :
Assembly—Dr. John H. Wintrode, of Penn.
Treasurer—Alfred B. Crowitt, of Hunting-
don.
Commissioner—Jacob Baker, of Springfield.
Director of the Poor—Kenzie L. Green, of
Clay.,
Cotuner—Silas Lang, of Walker
Auditor—Wm. IVloore, of West.
We have not time to say much about this
ticket at present. The candidate for Assem
bly we are informed was born somewhere in
Adams or York county, and the light of his
eyes and countenance first shone upon Hun
tingdon county four or five years ago. When
fairly settled down, he saw something of a
speculation in being a candidate for Senator,
got speculating conferees appointed, who
have the credit of having sold him out pretty
well, and of - quarrelling with him about the
division of the price he brought in mai ket
such are the traditions presented among the
relics of the unburied Whig party.
Last year he got the Whig tickets sent to
him as a leading Whig, and destroyed them;
then went upon the election ground and rep
resented to the voters that the ticket he was
giving them was the "regular Whig ticket,"
when it was the Know Nothing ticket. This
latter evidence of how he understood the
mission of his party, we suppose secured
him his nomination. The vote from Penn
was here in time this year ; and sends its
greetings to Warriosmark !!
,How THESE
BRETHREN LOVE ONE ANOTHER.
Mr, Crewitt, our townsman, is a gentle-
man of leasure, who has been putting in his
time since his advent amongst us front
Mifflin county two or three years ago, in
laying the wires for this office, and in
private shaving. The private razor has got
dull, and he wants the use of the County's
big safe to whet it on, and give it a little oil
if need be.
The County Commissioner and Director of
the Poor having both been Whigs, it was
found necessary to throw a small crumb of
comfort to the betrayed Democrats, and they
finished out the tail of the ticket with Maj.
Moore. We suppose the Major's efforts at
making Know Nothings at the Alexandria
Camp Meeting • last year, are considered as
having raised a storm that has done rather
more harm than gnod, and therefore he only
deserved a small office worth about four dol
lars a year. More anon.
The "Wild hunt after Office."
The "wild hunt after office" in the Know-
Nothing Councils, has ever and anon, for the
past few weeks broken upon the ear of the
outside world ; and however little we may
know of the 'mosses, waters, slaps arid styles'
they have had to encounter in the chase, we
know that chase has been a warm one, and
those who are considered as having holed the
game are now announced.
What biting satire upon this new and pro
fessedly pure party, its National Council ut
tered when it denounced the f'wild hunt after
office." The whole pack has been in full
cry for the past few weeks, all over the State
for office ! office ! office ! and in our cannty
where there are but six offices to be filled
this year, and most of them of minor impor
tance,, the names of over forty aspirants have
been communicated to the public by some
means, and how many more there were in
side, the light of the dark lantern only "can
reveal.
One feature of the Know Nothing ticket
gratifies us. The Democrats who .have
forsaken their old faith, and gone into this
new political family, can now see what kind
of a seat they are to have at the family table
—a back seat. They have asked for a fish,
they hake got a stone. A quondam Demo
crat for Auditor : quandam Whigs take all
the rest. Oh, ye poor miserable dupes, who
have been led into this quagmire by your old
enemies ; how joyously you can sit and suck
your thumbs during the coming winter of
your discontent Oh yes, you were candi
dates and were voted for : yes voted for just
enough to deteat you, and lay you back for
three years under the rule, to be hewers
of wood and drawers of water for the elder
brothers of your fraternity. You are step
.lllildren in the family ; and you have to step
back. INhat golden prizes do you see at the
end of the three years that will pay for the
toil "Work horse and you'll get oats,"
must be your comfort.
The Know-Nothing Nominations
The heading of this ticket is a suitable one
for the phansagars—and will, ironically
speakir.g, commend itself to the support of
honest men. Of course it makes no differ
ence that the Doctor has but lately became a
resident in our county—and that he is equal
ly ready to leave it when circumstances
shall warrant; the party whose candidate he
is being itself but an adventure, it cannot be
blamed if adventurers use it for their own
selfish purpo.es. We may expect now, to
have that Senatorial matter, and those two
thousand dollar transactions, explained to the
satisfaction of the public. Of course those
members of the Ordei l , who spoke freely on
the subject during, the canvass for nomina
tion, will be anxious to clear the matter up,
so that their own consistency may be made
beautiful and transparent, and worthy of im
itation.
The Dr was an old Whig, Mr. Crewitt
was an old Whig, Mr. Baker was an old
Whig, Mr. Green was an old Whig, Mr.
Lang was an old Whig, Maj. Moore was an
old Democrat, who has been elevated to the
tail of the ticket, as a compliment we
suppose to that wing of jhe new party. Do
the honest and cajoled, and cheated members
of the order, begin to see into the tricks of
their corrupt leaders? Or are the scales yet
upon their eyes 1
The Circus was a great institution.
Said to be good by some, and no better than
it should be by others. The crowd in atten
dance was lsrge.
The Broad Top train of three cars, all fill
ed to running over, was to us the most inter
esting sight seen. Woodcock Valley is now
out of the woods—and as soon as the road is
completed to Broad Top, the crowd that will
come down to see the sights will astonish all
who have supposed the country through
which the road passes, to be nothing more
than a wilderness.

The State Agricultural Fair.
The fifth annual fair of the Pennsylvania
State Agricultural Society will open at Har
risburg on the 26th inst., and continue four
days. The experience and ability of the
Managers, and thorough devotion to the in
terests of the Society, induces us to antici
pate a much more than usually interesting
exhibition. Over $7,000 in motley and med.-
als will be distributed in premiums, and the
various Railroad companies, -centering at
Harrisburg, are offering every facility to ex
hibitors. The Fair Grounds compose twen
ty-one acres, located adjoining Harrisburg.
Cornfcirtable and convenient sheds and stalls
have been arranged for a thousand head of
stock, and large frame buildings erected for
the display of the Mechanic Arts, Farm and
Garden Implements, Emits, Flowers, Plants
and Designs ; and large tents have been se
cured far the display of Household and Do
mestic manufactures. Vegetable seeds, the
products of the Diary, &c., &c.; also a build
-ing six hundred feet long for the display of
Poultry. The horse course has been pro
nounced the best laid ant at any State Fair.
The distance around it is one-third of a mile.
A fine carriage drive. is laid out in the enclo
sure. Steam power will be furnished for
the running of machinery. The exhibition
will be mechanical as well as agricultural,
and the manufacturers mechanics of
Pennsylvania are invited to send in speci
mens of the productions of their manufactu
ries and workshops. The competition being
thrown open to the citizens of all the States,
it may be expected that many of them will
compete with Pennsylvania for the prizes.
Distinguishes agricultural and scientific gen
tlemen have been invited, and will deliver
lectures during the evenings of the fair, in
the hall of the House of Representatives.—
On Tuesday the grounds will be thrown open
to the public, and continue open four days.
The judges will commence their examina
tions on Wednesday morning the 28th. The
Plowing Match will come off on Friday
morning, at 9 clock. The annual address
will be delivered by the Hon. Frederick Watts.
After the address the reports of the judges will
be made known. The books are now open at
the office of the Society in Harrisburg, where
articles and stock may be entered until the
first day of the Exhibition ; during that day
they will open at the grounds. Goods will
be received on the grounds on Friday, the
21st inst., and until noon of Tuesday, the
25th. Articles and stock intended for the
State Fair, will be transported both ways
over all railroads, centering at Harrisburg,
free of charge r and the companies will also
issue excursion tickets during the Fair.
