we are obliged to omit for the present par
aphrasing on our nominee for Congress.
But we can assure our readers that it wolig
be difficult to fi nd a man better qualifira
to fill that exalted station than S. Steel
Blair, Esq.,. We will have something to
say of him next week.
The excitement consequent upon
the suspicion raised against one of our cit
izens, Mr. Patrick McAteer, as being con
cerned in passing spurious money with a
man by the name of Brooks, has subsided.
Mr. McAteer WBl last week brought be
fore David Snare, Esq., one of tie Justi
ces of the Peace of our Borough, ai d af
ter a patient investigation, and all allega
tions, and witnesses brought by the Com
monwealth's A ttornry, it was made appa
rent and clear to every by-etander, and the
Justice himself, that not a spark or
testimony was elicited from all the nu
merous witnesses to implicate Mr. Mc-
Aten, although the prosecution was con
ducted wth all the ingenuity that astute
attorney was capable of. But after all the
turnings and twistings. Mr. McAteer was
triumphantly acquitted and fully exonera
ted by the magistrate from all participation
in the transaction, to the great gratification
of his numerous friends, who are all satis
fied of his entire inno'ence.
Accident on the Penna. Railroad.
An acc'dent occurred near Newton Re.
Witco, fourteen miles below this place, on
Wednesday morning, the Bth inst., to the
express passenger train, in consequence of
*switch being misplaced, through the ne.
gligence of a conductor of a freight train.
The entire train was thrown from the track
and the engine, express and baggage cars
very much injured ; the express agent was
so injured that he died in a short time af
terwards. The firemen was badly scald-'

For the Journal:
MR. EDITOR—We are so democratic as to
believe in the people's abstract right to in
struct their Representatives in all the business
for which they are employed,. But it will not
be denied that all good citizens feel themselves
bound by both principle and expediency, very
frequently to waive their rights. And the only
practical mode of giving instruction ie by Con
%million. Thus, the candidate for nomination
in known to be for, or against come very im
portant measure, or :reinsures; his constituents
knows kin opinions, and nominate him as their
Representative, and so far as those important
measures are concerned he is by hie !minim,
Lion tacitly instructed. But so far as men or
measures are concerned, we hare always wai
ved our abstract rights, upon ground of expe.
diency.
Mr. Wigton's opinion upon the Iwo great
questions, the protection of our home induetry,
and the extention and perpetuation of of Slay.
cry were well known, and he received the nom
ination for Assembly accordingly, and was so
instructed. But the delegates of the people in
convention positively refused to instruct the
nominee in reference to the three mill tax, or
in any of the minor questions which may come
before the Legislature. And although we have
a decided opinion of eur own as regards the re•
peal of the three mill tax, yet we think the con.
mention did well to refuse loading Mr. Wigton
with Bide issues, which would only tend to di
vide hie friend, defeat his election, and place
his and our opponent in power.
If your mansion house was on fire you would
not turn your first atttention to save your hen
coop and pigsty? Nor do we deem it wise to
require Mr. Wigton, at this time to give an ex•
position of opinion as regards the repeal of the
three mill tax law, a sunject upon which whirl
and good men may and do, differ in opinion.
But to place the subject in a clear light, sup.
pose that our class of men interrogate our can
didate with regard to his views upon the three
mill tax, another class press him to say that
he is in favor of abolishing the county Riper
tntendency of common-schoole, and still an
other demands that he shall agree to abolish
the office of Township road Supervisors, and
make it a county office and so adqVisailum.
Is it not very plain, that instead of settling
those great National questone which thrills
every patriots breast, the friends of liberty
would fall out by the way, and suffer deepest
corruption to go unwhipped.
And now lot us ask in ell minder and kind
ness, that we agree upon the small issues
which often perplex our legislature in m•der
that wo may present an unbroken front to
oppose an administration, which has been ac•
cessary to staining the fair fields of liberty,
with the patriots blood, which has labored as
siduously and industriously to extend Slavery
over that fair region which we hold in reserve
for our children. An administration which ,
has exhausted the treasury, and refused to pro •
daet Air fxdriOry welsh the pnerper ?air if
Europe.
In politics we can never have an issue fully
14 to our mind, and consequently, we must employ
our beat endeavor to strike down the paramount
vil. We might write out a utopian political
platform, which, if carried into effect, would
supersede all future legislative, as well as trim .
Mal jurisprudence, and dry up the fountain of
moral evil. But all such efforts must prove
chimerical, till our race is so purified us to
need less coercive legislation.
Let us trust Mr. Wigton. The writer has
known him since boyhood, and has been long
acquainted with his antecedents, and can fear•
lessly pledge him against aliihe allurements of
hribery and corruption, whether it be two hum
dred or two thousand dollars. Of him a e any
in unqualified terms, he is honest and he is ca•
pable to discharge the ditties of the office which
he is doubtless going to receive at the hands
of the people.
JUSTICE.
For the Journal.
The weather here is delightful and is
fine prospect of its continuing. Old jack
frost has paid us several visits, but thus
.ar, they have been attended with no ma
terial injury. The citizens of our usual.
ly quiet borough were agreeably enter
tained on last Saturday (the 11th.,) by
the new Dragoon Company lately formed
in this place. It numbers at this time
some thirty members—and a•e venture to
any that when fully equipped, cannot find
its equal in the State.
The Cassville S. minary now in success
ful operation under the supervision of
Prof. M. McN Walsh , cloaca its present
session on the tat of October.
The farmers are now busily engaged in
preparing the soil for the reception of
their fa:l crops--and indeed many have
already completed their seed —sowing.--
The wheat crop entirely failed in this sec
tion of the country; but from present in
dications the loss will partially be suppli
ed by a reasonable crop of corn and pota
toes. The fruitso tar as we can ascertain
will be almost a total miss--consequently,
the specimens from this neighborhood at
the coming County Fair, will be "few and
far between." Business is very dull
here, and the want of money very much
felt. Those who had anticipated good'
crops this year, will be compelled to gn to
distant neighborhoods for their winters
food ; and those who are not favored with
the needful, the coming winter lowers ra
ther gloomy. But notwithstanding, the
present prostration of business, the politi
cal feeling waxes warmer and warmer as
the election approaches, The nomina•
Lions made in Union Convention are endor
wil i n this. e d agen„ ini n ie
ti t / wtins hipe,
seunpd
port of the people.
In the Hobe' of last week, "Milton," a
knowing correspondent from this place
speaking of the Democratic nominees.
says : "I never heard of so general satis
faction. The ticket is regarded as one
that cannot be defeated, but before which
successful opposition must flee." Had
"Milton," versed (?) as he is in the poli
tics of the county, and more especially
here, made further it quiries relative to
public opinion, he would soon learn that
he labors under a very grass mistake.—
' lle would discover that therein considers
ble dissatisfaction in the ranks el the so
called Democratic party ; that there are
many Democrats who will not support his
darling ticket, and look upon its defeat as
a settld fact. Further: "In Clay, Spring.
field and Cromwell, the universal opinion
10, that Mr. Myerly will run two thirds of
the entire vote; and throughout this whole
valley he will receive such a poll as never
was given to Democratic nominees "--
Now this is not the fact. neither in it the
"universal opinion." Should i I ion''
ogainiaqiiire, he will ascertain satisfactori•
ly to himself, that his bold assertion is not
backed by public opinion. We have in
our possession, letters from leading and
relinblr men in Clay Springfield, Cromwell
' Tod mid other townships. which testify to
the popularity of the Union ticket, and the
certainty of a glorious victory' over all op
position. These are the proofs, Freemen
of Huntingdon county, that our whole
ticket will be elected beyond a douli, and
of a most consummate triumph over the
friends of a misguided and corrupt Admin
istration. True before the nominations
it wa+ presumed by some that the entire
Locufoco ticket would be elected. But
the feeling of success and victory, which
now prevades the minds of the people, is
in pleasing contrast to the utter despondcn
cy and tear of defeat, which was minutes
tad prior to the assembling of the people's
convention.
I.3elore closing, wo cnnnot refrain from
mentioning the name of David Clarkson,
Esq., of this place, our present nominee
for Poor Director. Mr, Chtrkson, born
and raised in Cass township, it personal
ly and favorably known throughout the
county. It is a high compliment to his
merits, his honesty and integrity of charac
ter, and a noble ondorsement of his past
upright course, to have the warm and deci
ded approbation of every township in the
county. Mr. Clarkson is a gentlemen of
good education, and his knowledge of bu• I
Slims eminently qualifies him to discharge
the arduous duties of the office, The in•
terests of the honest taxpayers of th e
county, will he faithfully guarded ir, his
kande.
WE h se ellte•teekfr, 1 4 tpt eiontsW •
before the people at the earnest solicits.
lions of his numerous friends.
'Truthfully, did "Milton' , remark, that,
"the candidates for Poor Director are bro.
thers•in law, and thai a personal effort by
either competitor will be rather delicate."
Mr. Clarkson's personal diens will not be
called into requisition, for he has a host of
friends who will work unceasingly for
him, and will bear witness of their firm
and never-doubting confidence in his hon
esty and integrity, on the second Tuesday
of Octol•er. Such will be the poll at horn
and abroad, that "Milton" and his friends
will be forced to acknowledge that it is not
the opinion of one or two private individ
uals. but the voice of the whet, people,
and in his own eloquent language exclaim:
Verily there is a "successful apposition"
to the psemio-Democracy.
Yours truly,

For the Journal.
Mr. Editor: --By your kind permission,
attention is called to a statement in the
proceedings, published last week, of a
Railroad Meeting, held in Ortosonia, on
the 26th ult. It is stated that the side
line, which has been recently explored
through Clay township, is 15 to 20 miles
shorter than the original line via Burnt
Cabins, Fort Littleton, &c. When we
consid r the distances of each route, we
find the difference of their lengths does
not agree with this report. From Concord
to Burnt Oabins, 18 miles ; to Fnt Little
ton, 4 miles ; to point of intersection at
Cortnn's upper Farm, 6 miles; total, 28
miles. From Concord to Shade Gap, 14
miles ; to Rockhill, 5 miles ; to Scot tsville,
7 miles ; to point of intersection at Corbin's
upper Farm, 5/ miles; total. 3l& miles.

eir The Union of Wednesday devotes
snore than two of its heavy columns to crush
ing out Senator Douglas The Union
proves that he is not at unity with the Dem
ocratic party of the county or with the
Democratic Administration of President
Buchanan. He has vbell d against the
President, and the party; he has never con
fessed his sins end brought forth works of
repentance, but has continued a foe and a
reviler of both to this day. Let him go to
the wall then! We quote :
"Mr Douglas chose to go out of his own
encampment—to wander away troin his
old comrades; to cone°, t as he did, with the
common eqnny. If he finds himself con.
"ury w torexpeciations, now engag
one of that enemy he has not right to call
upon Democracy to leave its awn intrench
t'd and well fortified camp and to run to any
new position outside of the Democratic
lines, and to come and extend io hiru relief
and protection. The Democratic party is
under no such obligation to any of its ern •
ant sons Let them come horse from their 1
wanderings. If enemies assail them, let
them return within the Democratic encamp
ment, and then they shall be protected by
her battlements and towers. But if Mr.
Douglas will not come within our lines by
acknowledging his willingness to abide by
the sole•nn decision of his owu party, it is
craven folly, and indeed an insult, to a.k
fo Os assistance of the Aduainiatration De
mocracy.
* * * * "It becomes, therefore, the
duty of every good Democrat, both to and
out of Illinois, to guard against any nasals.
plied sympathy for Mr. Douglas while in
his present defiant position. Between him
and democracy, the true Democracy, there
must column to oe a deep gulf, until he
shall chose to clone it by a ready Resoles
eence in the dicisions of the party on any
great question—such as the United Suites
Bank and the Sub-Treasury in the days of
Jackson, the rexns question. under Mr.
Polk, the Kansas and Nebraska bill under
Mr. Pierce, the Lecompton and English
bills under James Buchanan. On non•
of these was it ever petnitted to any one to
go off from the party and join the enemy
battering down our walls, defeating one by
one our favorite measuses, and then to re
turn, still armed to the teeth and defiant to
temper, to demand protection against that
very enemy with which he hnd jus. been
in clone league and alliance."

of the• captured slaver, says: '.Under the
laws of the United Slates, the vessel is for
feited; ono•hulf of its value goes to the rap
tors, who are also entitled to $55 per head
for eoch regrow captured. The law also
directs the President to take measures fur
the removal no the negroes beyond the
limits of the United States, and to appoint
an agent nit the coast of A (hien to receive
