isr We hear it broadly hinted in cer
tam quarters, that Mr. J. A. Hall edits
and controls our paper; we don't pretend
to say that he arrogates to himself the edi
torship of the Journal; but we feel bound
to correct the mistake; we claim to edit
our paper ourself, and are independent of
Mr. Hall and every other man or set of
men. The truth of the matter as regards
Mr. Hall is just this and nothing more ; I
we have always regarded him as a friend I
under all circumstances, but he never had
anything to do editing the Journal !
!since we own lil he did up to last
spring was to write as article occasionally
which expressed our sentiments ; and to
give his opinion of matters and things
when we asked his opinion ; and it he is I
the man we have taken him to be he will
-confirm thin.
But last spring or eaCy summer when
the first move wan made ;it rJounty politics
in a conversation with Mr. Hill a certai n
course was suggested, and he volunteered
if the Journal would take that course he
(Hall) would do the necessary writing to
elect a sound Union Convention that would
put up a popular ticket ; and this suggev.
lion came up to our notion exactly, It was
the views of al! good Republicans and A.
mericans as tar as we are aware of. And
As we expected to be a good deal from
home during tho summer we accepted Mr.
Hall's ofler, but reserved the privilege to
reject anything that should not meet our
views fully. With this arrangement Mr.
Hall used our columns till the Nominating
Convention met, and being pleased with
the ticket and we being unusually throng
ed with job-work, he continued to prepare
articles for our paper, and we believe
wrote all the article except one or two up
to the election. Since the week before thin
election Mr. Hall has not been in our of
ice. This is the whole sum and sub
stance of the matter on which the hue and
cry is raised that we are the tool of ano
ther, because forsooth that other has for n
few weeks been writing our sentiments
and we published them. What does all
this amount tot More or less writing is
done for every editor in the country ; does
that deprive the editor of his position and
make a tool of him ; with the same propri
ety you might consider Milton's amenu
oasis the author of his poems. We seek
no quarrel with Mr, Hall; but the plain
truth of the matter is. he has positively re
fused to make a public denial, and we have
no other way left to put ourself right be

that comes to the lips when examining the

it is an honor to old Huntingdon. his

HONEST CONFESSIONS.
The Democrlicy is at the confessional,
and every now and then one of its mem.

heard by the world. Thus ' , Occasional,'

grave question whether the highest inter

Government should interpose a decided
check to the growing arrogance and dic•
tation of Presidential power. Do not be
surprised to see an earnest movement in
this direction at the next session. It is a
favorite old Democratic maxim that power
is constantly being taken front the bands
of many into the possession of the few.
There never was a better illus,ration of
this truism than that we have witnessed

New Law in York County.
We learn from ono of the York papers
that there was a great deal of 'scratching"
of tickets at the late election Especially
was this the case with the Congressional
and Senatorial tickets. Bat the election
officers in York township inaugurated a
new principal of law. The tiokets were
of course scratched with a pencil, for vo
ters are not in the habit of carrying ink
stands and pens in their pockets. But the
officers decided that lead pencil marks were
not lawrul, and so the candidates whose
names were stricken out, received the full
benefit of the pencil strokes; the tickets
were counted full the same as though no
scratching had occurred. We imagine
that those voters who scratched certain
candidates, are not exactly satisfied to learn
that no respect was paid to their" express

Progressive Democracy.
A Democratic editor in Tennessee tells
some plain truths about his own party.
He glories in the fact that the Democracy
of to day is not that of Jefferson, Madison
Jackson, or even Van Buren. Here is
h.s testimony.
•
Democracy is progression. What was
Democracy in Jefferson's time, is not De
mocracy at the present day. What was
Democracy in Gem Jackson's day is not
Democracy now.—And, indeed, what was
Democracy ten years ago, is now Democ
racy today.
That's a fact. One sort of Democracy
dies. and a very different sort of Democra
cy takes its place. Then this latter De
mocracy passes away, and a Democracy
utterly unlike it in everything becomra its
successor. Then this last Democracy van
ishes int", thin air, and another monster
stalks upon the stage and takes its name•
And yet we are told that the Democratic
“the great party ot permanency." 'Phut
sort of "permanency" is no doubt n won
derful invention Apply the term Demrc
racy to all sorts of nightmares, and unques
tionably nemocracy will be permanent ;

phantasmagoria. will last an long as men

II is believed that a murder took place,
on Wednesday morning last, on the lino

man of stout build, ,nd about five fe .t, six
inches in height, was found lying on the
track, at an early hour. there were no
scars or bruises on his person, with the
exception of a wound received on the left
side of his head• which fractured his kul!
thereby causing death. The wound was
evidently given by a slur,,g shot or some

That they are awake to the destructive ten•

of probably thirty millions of dollars, annually
for the payment of interest alone.

borers are badly fed and badly clothed, because
unemployed.
That the belief in a necessity for total change

That it needs but union among ourselves

Gregg's Majority, 584
In 1855 Mr. qregg's maj. was only sixty
ndd votes. He then rnn ngainst Mr. Diet
rich, and the increase speaks favorably for
Mr. Gregg personally, as well as for his
Senatorial Services. We may add that the
district wrs changed since 1858, but the
change scarcely affected the politics of the
distrist.
