Tire ELECTlON.—Contrary to all the expo.

candidate fe. the Presidency. A. rebuke open,

fire pettifoging blood-suckers, who presume to
direct the course of Americanism, and, who,
"considering themselves the heart and bead of
the 'American Party of Huntingdon County,
declare their ratification of an ill-timed nomi
nation. the voice of the free tchite men of this
county. The people of the county we know,
If they were properly acquainted with the Jes
uistic principles of some of their would-be lea
ders, would not recognize certain worn-out,
party hags in theFfuntingdon Council, N 0.67,
ns such. We despise party men who are such
not from principle,.but for selfglorification, if
we may be permitted the term. And who will
*deny the self evident fact, that scores of shabby
oflice.seekers in this county, have mounted
the hobby "Sam," for the sole purpose of riding
into fist ofliees and as natural consequent now
a.days, squandering the publiefunds.
All the American candidates with the excep
tion of 'School Directors, were defeated. No

Too MANY &Hoot IllooNs.—We saw a
score of juveniles of both sexes, coming from
School yesterday, and were astonished at the
number of boo!,. the little creatures curried.
One bright-eyed hot had thorn heaped up, like
Dominic Sampson when he revelled in the
li

/I{o I, TOP.—Anotber splendid now engine
designed fur the Huntingdon and Broad Top
Railroad, arrived here on Monday.—The
Broad Top have "struck" fur higher
wages. The price they demand per ton, is 60
cents, they have been receiving 40 cents, and
wo understand they have been offered 45.—The
town of Stenerstown, is decidedly a "fast instd

is no new occurrence.—The basin and weigh

doubtful whether the latter will be finished by
the opening of navigation.—A 'turndable' bas

for it is very great. •

accompany him to treat the ''good people" of
Huntingdon to some excellent music. All are
respectfully invited to 40[11.0 and hoar and see

"GALTDETE EXULTEMVS !"—We have no ad
jectives—positive, comparative or superlative—
to express our satisfaction in announcing that
spring has come at last, and that those int.

collected during the winter in our streets, block

generally, will he removed. We are living in
,tlAc joyful anticipation that if we have a here'
government, this matter will be attended to.

ST. PATRICK'S DAY Ix TILE MORKING.-A
lovely day was the 17th, and the people eeies of
rain were all unfulfilled. We venture the sug
gestion that as February had, this year, twenty
nine days, and St. Patrick did not recognize
the institution of leap year, it being a modern
invention, Sunday was the true St. Patrick's
slay, and consequently the snow that fell and
the raw, lowering sky that hung over us, were
the proper marks of his arrival. This being
,the case, the public will piirdon the failure to
,celebrate the 17th of March with a rain or a
snow storm.
REPUBLICAN MnaTlso.—A Bopubliaan mee

mad, sentimental young lady Muse stuff. "Ab•
pins," and "stars," and "primal depths," and
"chaos voices," and "sperial melodies," togetly

of souls iu purgatory, are the chief materials
of which the poetry of the last fifteen years
has been manufactured.
llnvrixos.—The quarterly meeting for the
Huntingdon Circuit, will be held in the

colored man Brutus, at the Baptist Church, a
month or so ago, was arrested on Saturday last,
and after a hearing before Esquire Snare, was
bound over in the suns °MOO° fur his appear•
ante at the April Court. He will then no doubt
find a pretty "rough road to travol."
