OUR TICKET
As the time for 010.1N:h.:hot of the gray(
i..ur; on trial in the pre cut eanipaign
rut idly draWilig to a close, it is well to lu•o
-sent to the voters of the C , unty a brier
history of the nu•n whose names apt(.ll
our State, district and local tickebs, as • the
c (1,111 S tit dard bearers and representatives
of the principles upon which the Union
Republican party goes into the e.nflir•t of
the ballot pox, appealing to the sound sense
and enlightened judgment, of an intelligent
and patriotic people; for their support.
At the head of the ticket, is the name of
nor candidate for the Chief Allagiqraey of
the Commonwealth, ft A.lolt CI EN ERA I.
.I.OIN NV GEARY, of 011101(.1111nd Counts.
has during ft great portion of his adult
life been in prominent official position and
has made a record which is known and
read of all men, and whether as Judge,
Governor, Mayor or General, we challenge
the severest scrutiny into his official or
unofficial conduct. His private character
is unimpeachable, the tongue of the slander
lacks the cunning to invent a calumny which
JouN W. GEARY world-wide reputation
for absolut purity of character would net
defeat. The very worst his political enemies
have to say of him is that when the question
was presented to him of fealty to a political
party, whose practices had become destruc
tive to civil liberty and the best interests of
the country, or loss of official position and
power, he , unhesitatingly chose the latter
and avered forever the political ties and
associations through which he could have
obtained emolument and patronage only at
the price of ignoble service in the behalf of
a treasonable and unscrupulous oligarchy.
The military record of Gen.
~G Enny is
written on every page of the history of the
Republic since the commencement of the
Mexican war, and the rank. ho attained and
the sears borne upon his person, are most
eloquent attestations of the fearless and ear
nest heroism he displayed in the hour of
his country's peril.
With such a candidate as the exponent of
the immutable principles of the great Union'
Party, success is already assured. As against
a man and a party that aro eminent alone
in treason and rebellion, the issue cannot be
doubtful.
We come next to our candidate for Con
gress, Gen. Robt.A7 .llaxnutisox, of
Carli4. He is well known to our citizens
as an excellent lawyer and a business man
of large experience and capacity. Ho Mai
twice represented this county in the State
legislature and while there desplayed Marie
ed ability in the conduct of public ,affairs,
enjoying,,therespdct and admiration of his
fellow • menibers and :his' constituents. At,
the outbreak of the rebellion .was chosen
to command a compat y made up from • the
best and most patriotic of our townsmen,
Serving . With distinction most of the
campaigns of the army of the Potomac he'
Faso to the grade of Lieut:ft:Mono], com
manding his regiment (the Ith Reserve) in
Several important actons,,, As a Public rec.,
ognition•of his Military, services he has re-'
ceiVed•the brevet or Brigadier General for
gallant and Maritarique eand
second Bull Ran battle , he Wap,-t3o;
wounded as to incapacitate him for furtho
service. On the establishment of the'Pro
vost Marshal system Gen. HiinEnson' was
selected to administer its duties in the dis
trict composed of Cumberland, York
, and
Perry counties. His administration of that
office is a matter of record and is beyond
reproach. Ever mindful of the dire !neces
sities of the government, he labored loyitily
and. zealously to till up the depleted ranks of
its armies ; but in the discharge of the some
times
severe provisions of the law, ho never
forgot that he was of the people and his
humane and generous action will never be
forgotten by them.
Col. JOHN LEz is our candidate for Leg
islature. , Col, Lac, too, has been a soldier
who won distinction in the war against treit
son. Raising a company for the 18Oth P.
V., he was rtipidly,promoted to the rank of
Lieutenant Colonel, and commanded that
regiment for some time. In the actions of
Antietam, Fredericksburg and Chancellors
ville, his gallant conduct won the approba
tion of his superior officers and he has for
„ser endeared himself to those under his
command by his constant watchfulness and
'nitre for their bust interests. There is not a
boy in blue ” in all Cumberland county
who does not owe to Col. LEW: , voluntary
. efforts any pay lie may have received for
military servh,e to the State, before having
Been mustered into the United States ser
vice; and yet there is not rt candidate upon
our ticket who hits been so meanly maligned
and so shamefully slandered by the cop
perheads. They know his merits and fear
that he will defeat his opponent, drives them
to the most inexcusable calumny. it re-
endorse this cowardly 1110.110 d of strikin.
down their bravo voinradii.
Capt. JAM Kta,so,ofShippensburgand
W. CU Esw ELL,4Eastpennsboro' are
on the ticket as our nominees for Associate
Judges. Capt. Krnwe is another soldier,
who at the head of his company battled
bravely for his country in her struggle with
traitors. Ito is also a veteran in the Re
publican party whose voice ha s a l wa y s
Leen heard ~n the side of truth and justice.

in his section ITT• lite county ;Ind ranks among

When our country most needed soldiers,
Mr, ZINN left his school and volunteered
as a private in one of the cavalry regi
ments from this State. In oneof the num
erous battles which were fought in the
Shenandoah Valley, he was captured and
taken to Libby, where he endured for
months, the privations and sufferings that
the new:friends of Andrew Johnson forced
our brave men to undergo. Previous to his
entering the service, \ltt. %ANN was a Delo
ocrat, but his experience , with rebels has
taught him that they, nt all men should not.

For clerk Of the Courts we have Sergeant
(;Koauir. \V. It EY Not of Shippen,burg,
whose !unitary sorviees date bad: to the
exican war, in which he served with greet
credit as 11 member of the Bth regular infant
ry. At the outbreak of the shiveholders,
rebellion, he enlisted in Campbell's battery,
where he was promoted for gallantry. Mr.
REYNOLDS was afterwards transferred to the
49th I'. in which he remained until its
mutter out at the elosii of the war, having;
participated in twenty general actions. He
is an excellent clerk, and is in every respect
qualified for the position for which he has
be , II nominated.
NV F. SADLER,
(~ e 11l 111
Captain IsAAr HULL, of Moehanicstairg,
is on our ticket, for Register. Another soldier
whose stilrerings in a rebel prison pen
have resulted in a shattered constitution.--
II i., sacrifices for the country have entailed
11 life time of suffering. We forget, the num
ber of the regiment to which M belonged,
but we know that he rought, with it in a
number of hotly
,contested actions, and that,
he ;vas captured tit Winchester, and a prison
er almost a year, and whon he returned to
his command, he was declared eqirely in,-
capacitated for service by the inhotnan treat
inert of his brutal captors. Ile hue every
qualification for the office of lto'deter.
MniOfHA AI EL KILO, Of MeChfUth.slolrg,
is our candidate fur CoMmissiuner. Major
King belonged to the 7th Penna. Reserves,
joining it at its organization, and remaining
w7ith it until its muster out, participating
in all the great battles of Virginia, and re
ceiving the brevet hi Major at the close of
the war, fur gallant services in the field.—
'He is a good business man and our citizens,
without regard to party, who desire economy
in the administration of our county allairs,
will vote fur him. We have been paying
pretty dearly genteel loafing in tlpCorpinis
sionm:s' office (pitching enough. Capt. Itixo,
if elected will introduce a little sorely need

()wax Jamas, of Newcumberland, and
JASON W. Eny, of Carlisle, are the candi
dates respectively for .Directors of the Poor,

well known; their names are synonyms,
for intelligence and integrity. Our county
could not do herself greater honor than to
elect such men.
Such iv the ticket presented by the Union
Republican party. As a complete whole it
is the best ticket ever presented to
the people of this county for their support.
The claims of our returned soldiers for the
places of emolument have been most goner

The Deserter Law
.'We publish on our outside to-day the net
of assembly approved last June, disfranchis
ing deserters'and NV . O licipe our . readers will
make thembelves tamillar with it provisions.
It prescribes the evidence which shall be re
garded as sufficient to prove tho.charge of
desertion unless the same can be overcome
by the production of an honorable discharge
from the service or proof that the person was
in the scrvice at the time ho was drafted. It
then enacts as follows, with regard to election
officers who receive votes from persons who
are thusdisquidifled.
Section 2. That if any such judge and in-
specters of election, or any one of them,
shall receive or consent to receive any such
unlawful ballot or ballots from any such
rson, he or theiso offending shall
be guilty of misdemeanor, and upon' convic
tion thereof in any Court of Quarter Ses
sions of this Commonwealth, ho shall for
each offence he sentenced to pay a tine of
not less than one hundred dollars, and to
undergo an imprisonment in the jail of the
proper county for not less than sixty days.
We invite particular attention to this sec
tion as there is a determination on the part
of Democratic politicians to .disregard the
provisions of the act. The l'otunic& of last
week thus denounces the act.
The Radical Rebels arc trying to subvert
the law of the land as decided by the Su
preme Court of the State. They are striv
ing to resist the right;,of. thousands of citi
zens to exercise the privilege of voting.

they are guilty of an offence of which they
have not only never been convicted, but for
which they hardnot bean, and never will
be, tried. These new Rebels against the
laws, these despicable enemies to the freedom
of the white man, had better not undertake
to put their contemplated fraud into prac
tice. We warn all election boards against
being intluenced by the foul schemes of the
Radical Rebels who are plotting-to overturn
the laws of the State. We say it in all ear
nestness and with a full determination to
make good our words, EVERY ELEC
TION 01 , FICER WHO WILL DIS
ERA Neill SE ANY SO-CALLED DE-
S E I: It Wilt) IS OTH ERW IS EQUA L-
I El ED TO VU'I'E, WILL BE PUNISH
ED Tu THE UTMOST EXTENT OF
LAW.
Now we distinctly inform all parties Con
cerned that the law Its printed is the law ~r
the State of Pennsylvania and as such binds
all parties specified in it. It has never been
pronounced unconstitutional 001 has thEre
been as judicial derision sir ii. An election
officer is as much bound by its provisions as he
is by any otherliortion of the election law AN LI
111SiIIII,'S I, 111, IS I Te M.P. To ALL ITS
EN - A ter ups... The threat that }Rican be pun
ished or molested for• obeying the strict let
ter of the law is ftatlieli and silly arid one
which no wan of•senso will regard for a mo
ntent. That those who hope to lei benefited
by deserter votes will make every effort to
intimidate officers from performing - their
duty is just what we eXpPeLud. ThOSO
who are engaged in this and are determined
that deserters shall vote had as well be ad
vised that they are themselves violating the
law and are liable to its penalties. For their
inl•ornsation we publish the following sec
thin of the law.
Sectiwi .1. That if ally peri:oll,ltall hor(
after per:o/do or advise iilly person or per
sons deprived of citizenship and disqualified
us :Lh,rcsaid, to ofrer any !Jidda or ballots to
the ollicers of any election hereafter to be
held in this Commonwealth, or shall per-
smith: or advisu arn• such officers to reccivo
tiny ballot or ballots from any person do
prived of citizenship and disqualified as a
for4aid ; st u b person s'o offending shall ho
guilty o f a misdemeanor, rind upon convic
tion thereof in any court ot Iluarter sessions
if this Coinnionwealtli, shall be punished in
like manner as is provided in the second see-
Lion or ibis act, in the case of officers of such
election receiving such unlawful ballot or
ballots
For those who are deserters themselves the
law has an express provision imposing a
penalty for offering or attempting to vote.
TILL provision IS as folk/WS.
Section 3. That if any person deprived of
eitizemhip and disqualified us aforesaid,
&ball at and• eleetion hereafter to be hel4 in
this Commonwealth, vote or tender to the
officers theraof and uffor to vote a ballot or
ballots, any person so offending shall be
thuuued guilty of a misdemeanor, and on
conviction thereof in any court of quarter
sessions of this Commonwealth, shall for
each offence be punished in like manner BB
is provided in the preceding section of this
aet in cases of officers of election receiving
such unlawful ballot or ballots.
Now let all who arc interested;in this
question know once and for all that the pro
visions of this law will be carried out to the
letter. If men who know themselves to bo
deserters offer their votes, THEY WILL 13IC
PU.NISLIED TO TUE EXTENT O 1 THE LAW. If
any election officer takes a vote contrary to
the provisions of the act, /I.E WILL BE DEALT
WITH ACCORDINO TO ITS PROVISIONS. And
if any person knowingly UROICS ANY SUCH
DESERTER TO PRESENT HIS VOTE such PER-
SONS WILL. ALSO BE PROCEEDED AGAINST AS
THE LAW DIRECTS.'q Noir gentlemen if you
are going to disregard the laws of the State
depend on it you will feel its penalties.
WHO SUPPORT CLYMER.
Every vile Oopporhoad who opposed the
war for the Union, and who called our brave
soldiers that were porilling their lives for
its preservation, " Lincoln hirelings," is
working for the Clymer ticket. Every un
principled demagogue whose appeals are to
the worst passions and prejudices of those
,whom ho trios to influence, ardently desires
the success of Mester Clymer. Every
defiant rebel whoso hands are yet red with
the blood of our soldiers, and who still con
tinues to cheer on his miserable dupes to
murder loyal Unkin men, wishes that Cly
mer may be Bloated. Every renegade Re
publican who was willing to barter principles
for the sake of continuing in, or obtaining
'office, is Working. for Clymer. Jefferson
Davis and his co,conspiraters, who starved
thousands of • our bravo boys in' Anderson

If the times were not so Badly out of joint, and fear
less independence and consistency were not imperative
ly demanded of every publicjournal Which Books to con
trol public sentiment, the contortions of the emit:sin
Herald on the negro question would be intensely amus
ing. In March or April last, in a rare mud sudden fit of
honesty, the Herald declared itself in favor of confer
ring the elective franchise upon the negro, and made an
argument of a column and a half to strengthen its posi
tion. It told us the negro was entitled to vote by rea
son of his services in tho war, and that he. might pro
tect himself in his rights. As was our ,duty, we an
pounced that the herald had swallowed the pogto and
was out flat-footed in favor of Stevens' most radical dog
mas. The ensuing week, our neighbor over the way,
frightened at the mutterings of the coming storm, and
having been waited on by some of the leading riplrits of
its political "ring," devoted another column and ii. half
to show that It was not in favor of negro suffrage. In
duty bound, we again announced that there was some
mistake in our mOVilillEl statement, and that the Herald
woe not in favor of negro suffrage; when, marvellous to
behold, the next issue of the herald contained another
labored argument to prove that it woo neither fur nor
against negro suffrage, that there wan no each question
as negro suffrage before the people, an that ft had
merely been indulging in a little harslet a speculation
upon II question which way of Ile practicd importance
whatever. Since that time our featherM friend over
the way has been balaucing himself on ole foot, on the
topmost rail of the political fence; and Who would only
condescend to come down and take one dale or the oth
er, we assure him it would bu a nource of great gratifi
cation to 'his numerous friends end the public general
ly." If he will simply say whotlier ho s for negro fed - -
frogs or against it, and then stick to oat he does nay
like ft man, it will greatly facilitate argument upon this
vexed question.
We have ales shown that the first if these amend
ments is as follows :
"All persons born or naturalized in the United States,
and subject to the Jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of
the United States and of the State wherein they reside
and no state shalt stake or enforce any km 'which shall
abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the
United States."
We have shown that by this amendment negroes aro
declared to be "eITIZENS of the United Sates and of
the State wherein they reside." Thus far the Herald
finds no limit with our argument. Now wi at is a "citi
zen 1" Ile is defined to be "a person mists or natural
who has theAirivilege of exercising the elective fran
chise, or Me qualifications which enable bin to vote for
rulers." Here is where the Herald takes issue with us,
or rather with WEBSTER, and with I.ll.seasTONE. and
KENT, for Webster draws his definition froth the pritici
plenhild down by these eminent comment atom Whet
"gar of the Herald is right, or wheth
er the leading commentators has given rufgoodlaw,our
legal attalomonts are not presumptions (aweigh to al
low us to determine ; but of one point we have uo
loubt—and thth ii was the object of our original argu
ment to prow—that the radical Wailers intend to use
this debatable question as a means to force negro suf
frage upon the people of Pommy' mum against their
wishes. We aro net so silly an to assert that the legal
effect of such an runendment to the Constitution would
be to overthrow the Constitution of Pennsylvania—and
we never maintained that it would, as the lirraid well
knows. But We did say, in the article which has given
rise to so much Iliaenesion. "What care they for State
Constitutions and State laws, if they can effect by indi
rection, through their policy of centralization, what
they know full well they could not accomplidla direct
iy ;" and we did say us the object of argument that it
was their purpose thus to force mug, o sulfram up o n the
people, "against taw and against their wishes." If the
Herald would be it little Less mean in its perversions, it
would not injur" its reputation for fairness.
It is scarcely necessary to say that all the
statements contained in the above are with
out foundation. Congress passed an act
giving negroes the right to vote in the Dis
trict of Columbia. Wc approved an I de
fended that action because the negroes were
the only loyal resident population of the
District. This wits in strict accordance
with the ductrine of Andrew Johmun,
loyal eon whether white or black, should
rule, and because it was notorious that all
Whito populationr, As a choice between
negro sulfrage and injustice in that district,
men were forced to adopt the for
mer. We stated distinctly that in the Baste,,
Congress had neither the right nor the putret
to regulate the question of suffrage. We
also stated that in Pennsylvania tiler., wag
im necessity that the negro race should, hav e
tiny further safe guards to either their per
sons or property ; that possessing every civil
right .that any white man enjoyed, there
could be no reason founded on absolute ne
cessity for conferring the right of sell:rag,•
them and therefore we did not, ad Vi , c:C..o

cising the elective franchise, - is to lie
itted to the next Legislature for ratification
or rejection, and the member to he elected
from this county will vote directly upon the
question whether negroes shall be declared
to be citizens of Pennsylvania, whether they
shall be entitled to vote in Cumberland
county, in Carlisle, at every poll in the State
Uonsequently, the provision of Our state
constitution which declares that only "while.
freemen of. the ago of twenty ono years"
shall bo entitled to vote, will be declared
null and void, because it conflicts with this
amendment to the Constitution of the Unit-
ed Sty tes. And this amend nun t, denying
the State of Pennsylvania the right to say
that negroes shall not 'Ate, iq to be acted
upon by tho next Legislature; and it has
been "heartily endorsed" by the Republican
county Convention, their candidate for the
Legislature, should he be fortunatc enough
to be elected, will veto to ratify this amend
ment and thus force negro suffrage upon the
people of the State against their wishes."
Pray what have you to offer further on
this subject. Then you said that the amend
ment did,overthrow the Constitution of the
State: would give nogroos the right to vote
in Cumberland county, in Carlisle and at
every poll in the State, and force negro sff
frage upon the people of the Stale against
their wishes, Now you say that you were
not so silly as to assort that the 'proposed
amendments would overthrow our State
Constitution. Now please toll us your po
sition on this question. If the " proposed
amendments to the Federal Constitution
were adopted and in force now, oould a no
gro vote in Pennsylvania at the coming elec
tion ? Can negroes over vote in Pennsyl
vania until the word whit.e is stricken from
our Stato Constitution ? Can our State Con
stitution be altered or changed without a
direct vote of the peoplo on an amendment
which has been proposed by the majorities
of tWo conso_cutivn- Legislatures? Can any
such sondndmOnt be-submitted to tho people
before 180 Is any question at issue, in
any. sonsolof the' word; now, which caniibt
be voted upon for thioe)rears ? We • have
asked these questions before and we ask them
again in the hope of getting direat
,and-citt
egOrloal answer's.As , soon' as they are
sword(' insist on knowing your opin
ion of the men who. denounce other men as
knaves and fools for Saying that, negro suf
frage is not at issue in this State ivlion every
schoolboy ought to know that it is impos-
MIA° to put it at issue inside of threg years.,
You''are kind enough ILO insinuate 'that
we are moan in our pervorslons " 7
---on this
point allow us a suggestion. You began thO

Jost Myatt this time the community will be flooded
with incendiary appeals to the passions and prejudices
of the people. These will be found in the radical pa
pers of the day and thoiL electioneering pamphlets. In
these, concocted storloW great cruelty to the " poo.t
negro" and Union monolerpetrated by the people of
the South, will be not forth in glaring rotors. The fer
tile imaginations of the distminnists will he severely
tested to furnish political capital for the radicals. We
ask the people to beware of these false and wicked sto.
ries. It is a well digested plan of the radical members
of Congress, to divert the attention of the public from
their own criminal acts. They know that they cannot
face their constituents with the record of their votes
against themselves. Hence the new cry of the " poor
negro" and Union men of the South,
It is highly probable that a good many
stories of rebel cruelty will be handed around
pretty extensively about now. There are
lots of them and all well authentiAted.
There is a certain gentleman in New Or
leans known as Pull,. SnAarmys who has
been sending up some strong stories about
the doings of the reconstructed down there
and these pesky radicals are giving them a
wide circulation. Here is a couple of them.

Wl4-eil A BRAIIAM LINCOLN foil by the
hand of an assassin, many of the Copper
head journals which had been maligning
Andrew Johnson, intimated that he was
accessory to the horrible crime, and cited J.
IVillice Booth's note, requesting, an interview
with him, us evidence of the fact. This
base calumny was instantly resented by the
journals that had defended Andrew John
son through the Presidential campaign, and.
that tried to cover, as with a mantle of char
ity- his disgraceful conduct on that mernorabie
4th of March. Eighteen months pass by
and Andrew 'Johnson turns his back upon,
and tries to stab to the heart, the party that
elected him to the second office in the gov
ernment; and while the people deplore the
terrible calamity that deprived thorn of their
Chosen loader, this man who, by the assas
sin's bloody deed, became the constitutional
successor of President LINCOLN, declares to
the American people in a public speech,
that he 'is glad of U. Common decency. did
he but possess it, should have prevented him
from thus giving expression to the feelings

President's style. Bead the shove extract
again and then rend some of Joh son 's
speeches. Both style and sentiment are
identical.
The New York 11eral 1 , hitherto a warns
supporter of the President, has deserted him
and gone over squarely to the support of the
Congressional policy. It predicts that the
policy of Congress will bu approved by
every loyal State as decidedly as it has been
or.dorsed in 11laine. It argues that the Con
stitutional Amendment contains the true
policy of reconstruction and says that their
adoption will be amply Sufficient for the
restoration of the Union, internal peace,
sectional harmony and the security of the
Treasury and the Government for many
generations to come against all disturbing
factions of uithell section." The effect of this
sort of talk iu a paper that has heretofore
supported the President steadfa4ly and that
has a daily circulation of 60,000 will be to
drive the little remaining vigor entirely out
of the Democracy. Thus in quick success
ion come the visitations of popular displeas
ure on the head of the party ; hat once con
trolled the entire Nation.
The Heraid gives the President some ad
vice gratuitously which sonic of his friends
hero might heed. This is its counsel :
ThO ProsidouPO quarrel find ropturo with Congress
was an unfortunate mistako. From recent events,
South and North, it to clear that It will woro a fautl
blunder to his administration, unless he nitandons it as
the IMMO hnfore the poop , . 'Rho old contests in England
between King and Psrliantont are full of instruction on
this subject. Had fir. Johnson taken our ftiondly ad

ministration a vigorous foreign pulley and a sound
financial system, Ito might ere this Lava become as
popular a Presidont nn Androw Jaekson. Ito has yid a
fair field before him in which to rutrletio his misfortunes.
Let him begin de nova, Ly a reconstruction of his Cabinet

of thu 17th of September to meet at Oyster's
Point, to discuss the issues of the day, as
sembled and attended to the duties of truly
loyal men (as they tern themselves,) and
at a respectable hour began to disperse and
started as was supposed for their homes
But having consumed in iiumense amount
of lighting whiskey, and being tired with in
diuotation toward a party who, have e ver
had in view the bust interests of our nation,
they were determined to executu their hell-
Lll design, by shamefully I Lbouhig defence_
. less citizens. Cowards that they were, why
did they not attempt this at any other than
the mid hour of night. On they came, and
between the hours of 10 and 11 P. M., at a
time when all lied retired to seek sweet re
pose, save a few who through necessity wore
compelled to labor until a later hour, the
citizens were startled by sin unusual amount
of hallooing and noise caused by the near
approach of these infuriated blackguards.
A few moments more and the attack was
made with stones and other missies, which
they had provided in their wagons before
entering the town. This was followed by,
repeated cheers for 'it'll'. Davis, Andrew
Johnson and Clymer, while many of our
good citizens, who had at this time had been
aroviced and wed themselves at their Win=
dowsigave cheers for our worthy candidate,
Geri. Geary and our Martyred Hero, Presi
dent Lincoln. This was rc„turned by stones,
curses innumerable rind bla r ckguardism
parallelled in the history of our country.

and fl.re traversed the continent of Asia
we , t ward, through Birmah, India, Persia,
the ruins of Babylon and Nineveh, Palestine
nd into Egypt. He possessed unusual fa
cilities for seeing and investigating what .
should be seen by the traveler. his semi
diplomatic character gave him the protection
of the Governments and access to the court
dignitaries in all these countries, and he tells
the story of what he saw in a way that
makes you feel quite familiar with' oriental
life.
Mr. Diehl is not n professional lecturer.
Ile has never lectured for money for him
self; but was engaged occasionaly, within
the last few years, by the Sanitary Commis
sion, and raised for that cause largo sums of
money. Ills lectures are spoken of in the
highest terms of commendation, by the pa
pers in eineinnatti, St. Louis, Nashville,
and other cities in the South-west.
We understand he he has been engaged to
return here to lecture next Thursday and
Friday evng., either in Rheem's Haller one
of the central Churches convenient for the
.citizens to attend. We predict that all who_
hear him will be richly entertained.
