"She (titim. gjf~ The Largest Circulation oj any Paper in the County. THOMAS ROBINSON. - - Editor. M. wTsPKAIt. rubrirtliif. (BUTLER PA. WEDMESOAV OCT. 18, 1805. M*"Llb«Hv «nd Union. Now and For«»»r, On# ,ndU««li.r.bli."-D. Web«ter. THE CITIZEN. As we intimated last week, it is im possible for us to furnish the CITIZEN to our rcaßers at the old rate of 81 50 per annum. In doing so, thus far, we have losing money, instead of making a living by its publication. That was the price of a paper when labor and material were low, and when one dollar would buy Mi,much as three will now—When flour was worth from 32 50 to s<3 00 per bar rid, coffee 15 and sugar 8 cts. per pound. Of course, when such a great dhange.has ta i:en place in prices genei ally, it is Impossible to avoid it in every department. Wo ;}iave accordingly concluded to publish our paper'in future at 82 00 per year, if •paid in advance, or within the year, and i'l 50 if not paid till aftor (he years sub scription is due. Thore is not a paper i published in the State, that wo have any knowledge of, that is published undur j these figures. We have run about a year onger than our neighbors, at old prices, and in consequence find ourselves out ot pocket in the operation. In this change j m* are only advancing our ratoa one-fourth i wheu many of the necessities of life have .gone up from eight to ten fourths ! 'When wo know that our paper is read I iby a large number, we feel more interest I iin making it attractive than we otherwise j mould. Congress will soon meet now, Aid important political questions will be j ibeforc it. 'We intend to keep the readers j .of the CITIZEN posted on all important | ■ questions that may come before that dis tinguished body, touching reconstruction —the rights of the rebels—the rights of deierters—or rather their disabilities— the policy of confiscation, &c. Fresh 'legislation may be asked of the Legisla ture. in reference to local bounty, &c., of all movements on this subject, we will 'keep our readers advised. In addition to this, the CITIZEN will give its rcpders the legal news —the Sheriff's sales, Register's accounts, proceedings in partition, list of .Jurors, &c., all of which will interest our •readers. In addition to this, a summary of general news; a variety of wit and humor; the markets, with Jijtricultural items, &e., urey We constantly locked for. Acting upon the piinciplc, then, of ''live and let live," lot us take a fresh start in ithe jcurney of life. Sustain us in our ■ effort to maintain an independent Repub iiioau poper, and our word for it, the col umns of 'the CITIZEN shall always be .found pleading the cause of the weak against the strong —the industrious yeo man and mechanic against the imperious advances of the aristocrat, and on all oc casions pleading in behalf of the educa tion and moral and political elevation of •he ignorant and downtrodden, believing that by this-policy only,, can our country reach that 'hight of moral and political greatness, Which it is her right—ji.iy,even 'her duty to attain. ThcHrsult. ■ Official returns hare not yet been re ceived from the entire State ; but enough -has been learned to enable us to say that our majority in the State will reach about 22,€00. This, considering the quiet char acter, of the canvass, is indeed encoura ging; and gives assurance that we will .have no trouble in carrying the State oaxt 'fall, for Governor, by 40,000. Did not the Constitution stand in the way, we , could re-elect Gov. Curtin by not less rthun majority. The friends of the Union have, indeed, great cause of re joicing. Not a word has been heard from . the opposition since the evening of the ■ election. Soldiers, even, heading their -ticket, did not prevent the .people from i pronouncing their verdict With emphesis. 'Our own county might have done .much ibetter. But considering the fact, that . our farmers were all engaged taking care •of their Buckwheat crop, we have no i right to complain. Our county is still ■invincible, and will, we doubt not, dou , ble her .majority next fall.

This«trongh-hold of the Bo gus Democracy, for several years this place has given strong Democratic major ities, and the supposition wai that it was ■ the Egypt of America. The last place that would give way to the abolition hordes. ISut.thut fatal I was ruinous to the Democrat party. Yes 1, never did a peec<«4k strut with more ostentation and pride than did the true Union men of - our Borough, when the votes were couut cd, and said 1 against the party that vo ted in solid phalanx against the right of , suffrage for the soldiers. Jus' say 1 to a Centreville Democrat, and ho will curse till he is blue, yes, this fatal 1 has ruined our party. But by aaothej fall election we expect to ruin it worse, and bury it so deep in the sea of oblivion that Gabriel's trumpet will failtoresurrect.it! <jo< d.f M soft shell Democrats!

Having retired from the printing busi ness, it has become indispensably and ab sclutely necessary for mc to close up the business of tho late American. It will bo of mutual advantage, to me and to those indebted, if they will pay at an j early day, without having any trouble or j any bad feeling. I need not say that the | large amount due tom ,is needed—our j frioudSjknow that it is. Let us hope that this appeal will be met by an honorable and prompt response. DAVID 11. MACKET is our authorized j traveling agent, and his receipts for mon jev paid will bo good, die is now, in con ! nection with other business, in | traveling the county, and we hope our J frieuds will respond promptly when he presents a bill. I Payment for the American can be made ! until the Ist of November at the rate of One Dollar and Fifty Cents per year; and for the present, our bills have been I made out accordingly. After that date, Two Voltum a year will be ahatged inva riably, without roupcct to persons. Will. IIASLETT. MR. EDlTOß:—Having attended our county fair, I must say, I was pleased to soe our farmers tako enough interest to go, if they did tako nothing with them. Who would call a fair a failure with such a crowd of people, and such a fair crowd? Rut tho competitors were not as many as might be desired. To remedy this, I have one suggestion to make: Let the list of premiums, for next year, be pub lished immediately, and let tho people kuow that there will be a fair certain, and sure. It is customary to give a few weeks notice,—n horse, a cow, or a bushel of wheat, don't grow in aTew weoks. and a prise piece of ;Bie<shanisi»i is not made in « few davg. I 'hope the monrgam will see the propriety of publishing the pre mium list for next year immeoiately; bv so doing thoy might give lartror prom - j urns, ns thoy would have greater competi- ! tion and more visitors. So much tor the ' fair. I have a word to say about fruit trees. If Butler county would improve itself, it must patronize those who have labored to improve it. Every year com. panies of sharper's tako thousands of dol lars (Hit of this county for fruit trees, when (I say ifrem my own experience) they can obtain better trees, better adapt ed to OUT soli, sooner transplanted, and more likely to be genuine as labelled from the Rural Hill Nursery of Silas Pearce. This gentleman is no particular friend of mine, but I have purchased trees from him, and I only write this in the spirit which should iufluenco every BUTLER COUNTY FARMER. To Teachers and Friends of Education At a meeting of teachers convened on tho 12th inst, to consider the propriety of holdiug a county Teachers Ixistiiute, it was determine;! that a eonvention be c»lled to meet uii .Tuas*iay, Wednesday and Thursday, the 7th Bth and Dth of November, in the borough of Prospect. Committees were appointed to >socuro speakers and to make the neae«sary ar rangements for the accomodation «112 all in attendance, Teachers and friends of education are therefore requested to be present, and aid, by their presence and co-operation, the establiaiuneet4f,a county Teachers Institute. It is hoped that sufficient interest will be felt. in this undertaking to make it a complete success, and thus impart to the cause of education in oar county an inereased impetus. A. H. WATERS, Co..

As far back as the early years of the Chris tian era there existed in Ireland a milita ry brotherhood, or militia, called Fianna i riou. in the third quarter of the third century thin body was commanded by Finn McCumhal, son-in-law of tho fami mis King Corniac Ulfadba, but petter known to the Saxoni aa Fingal, who, like President Lincoln, was assassinated.— This brotherhood became divided, the mcmtiers quarreling bitterly, as Irishmen sometimes will, the Clan Boisgne being headed by Ossian, or Osin, -the son of . Finn, and the Clan Merna being tbeotli .er party. The former claimed precedence over all other soldiers ; and the upshot -was that after having defied even the throne they were aat-ailed, in the reign of Kiog.Barbre. son of Corniac, and anhila ted, almost to a man, Ossian falling by the v>y»l. hand, —no doubt with a shille lagh in it. , Ossian's followers were call ed Fians, and the battle that was so fata! to them was that cf Gabhra. The Fen ian heroes became favorites with the Ir ish bards and comancere, and the critioe say that it is on their productions, some times called Feniar,Poems, and others yet more ancient, that Macpherson founded his celebrated wofks, concerning which there waa so much fcot blood, and so ma ny hot words, in the last centuary- The reader probably remembers the conversa tion in Scott s ArUiquvry t between Mr. -Oldbuck of Monkbarns and his Highland ■ nephew, Capt. Hector Mclntyre, in which the latter stands upstoutly for the authen ticity of Macphcrson's Ossian. He quote* ■to,his uncle from the original, translation hiciMif some portions of a dialogue be tween Saint Patrick and Ossian, in which 1 . 4 4 the latter asks : "Do you compare your psalms to the tales of the bare armed Fon iancf' whcn his unclo aska : "Are you -a ure you are translating that last enithot •orrectly, Hector ?" "Quite sure," an swered Hector, doggedly. "Because I should hare thought the nuidity might have quoted as existing in a different part of the body." We presume that our mod ern Fenians take their name from those ancient Irish heroes who figured so long ago, and of whom the barda used to sing, that they inspiro to be a military frater nity, or brotherhood, like the Fianna Kirinn, who flourished when Cormac was King, and to be the champions of Ire land, and in that way to win the praise of poete and the love of ladies.
