MR. EDITOR :-
In the Globe I see a piece',
headed "Wharton and the town jakeys,"i
that we in the country would like you to
explain. If we understand the language,
it says "we knew a despicable opposition
would be raised to his election." Whar
ton was the regular Whig candidate; and
the "Globe" and its party leaders are the
"despicable opposition" to all suoh can
didates, of course. In this township, it
was just the likes of them who brought out
the Friedley tickets and circulated them,
and the "Globe" does not tell the truth,
when it says "the only opposition to Col.
Wharton was made by Whigs." But if it
was true, 661 Whigs in the county voted
against Wharton. As the Colonel's par
ticular friend, this is unkind of the 'Globe,'
for it proves that be only got 1492 Whig
totes in a county that can poll 2500, and
et course it claims Wharton 's success as a
loco foco victory. May be after all, that
the "Globe" thinks it has got up a fight
among the Whigs, and it must do some
thing to keep up the fire. Well, we in the
country have determined to have nothing
to do with the Whigs,
who arc dancing
hug-em-snug with the "Globe" and its par
ty. MILL BOY.

CHEAP BOOKS.—We learn, and notice'
with pleasure that our esteemed fellow
citizen Eliel Smith, Esq., has been appoin
ted as a colporteur for the sale of the pub
lications of the American Tract Society.—
The publications of the Society are among
the most valuable religious work of the ,
times, and as all know, who are acquain
ted with the history of that Society, are
entirely free from Sectarian bias, and cal
culated to further the cause of Evangeli
cal religion, and the spread of Gospel
truth. They are the cheapest Books we
might almost say in the world.
We have received the first number
of the "Weekly Ledger," an independent,
dollar paper, just started in Littletdown,
Adams county, Pa. by Francis B. Davis.
We can hardly realize the fact that we
have before us a neat and spirited .11 , ews
paper issued within a few rods of the spot,
where thirty odd years ago, we toddled
with our New England Primmer to al
most the only English school in the town
or neighborhood, and that held in a delapi
dated Smithshop! But it is even so; and
we rejoice at this pleasing evidence of in
tellectual progress in our place of nativity,
and cordially wish the talented editor the
highest success in his noble enterprise.
MARRIED.
In Huntingdon, on the 10th inst., at th
Rail Road Hotel, by Rev. J. B. Williams,
Mr. WILSON D. DUFFEY to Miss MARGA

On the evening of the 14th inst., by the-
Rev. Samuel Hill, Mr. ASBURY R. STEW

Judge Hutchinson, of Blair co.
DIED.
At the residence of her father, in thi;
county, on the oth inst., Miss MARY J. C.
Cotten, aged 20 years, 3 months and 24
days.
"Thou art gone to the grave, but wo will not de
plore thee,
Though sorrow and darkness encompass the
tomb—
The Saviour has passed through its portals be
fore thee,
And the lamp of his love is thy guide through
the gloom." J. B. \V.
On Thursday, the 21st inst., in Alexan
dria, CONRAD BUCHER, aged 77 years and
five months.
The deceased was an old and valued citizen, o
our county, and one who enjoyed the confidence
and respect of the whole community. Ills loss,
though not unexpected, will be felt and mourned
by all who knew him. Ile filled many places of
trust and confidence, to which lie was called sit
different times by the voice of his fellow• citizens,
and enjoyed the high reputation of being an hon
est man, a good citizen, a kind husband and an
indulgent father. A devout Christian he died--
. Like one that draws the drapery of his couch
About !din, and lice down to pleasant dreams."
But, though he is gone, lie still lives, for—
" Can that man be dead
Whose spiritual influence is upon las kind?
VA lives in glory; and his speaking dust
Jlas more of life than half its breathing moulds."
