The danger .of ,electing Copperhead
Judge is shown,-by reference to - the
past JUdicial "Opithons„ of the magis
trates of that stamp.
In 1861, rwhen !the South seceded,
Judge Black, Pilesident Buchanan's
attorney '
General promulgated the
"Opinion," , officially, that the General
Government had no right to coerce a
State even in so'grave a matter as Re
bellion: President Buchanan adopted
that view, and refused to reirrforce ,or
provision the garrison at Fart Sumpter,
or to.resist the hostile measurei of the
traitors which ,finally resulted in the
surrender of that Fort, and gave to the
Rebels their first success. .Judgeßlack,
at the late Harrisburg Convention, en
dorsed Judge Sharswood as having "no
unsound spot on him,"—which may be
taken to mean that he held the same
views.
In 1863 the Copperhead Judges of the
SuoremeCourt of Pennsylvania declared
_ r it a. ktei.rwax - ho.sr
lutving at that time a major! y on the
bench. ,Fortunately the Republicans
elected Judge Agnew in that year, and
this decision was over-ruled soon after,
by his vote. But for this circumstance
our State would have been involved in
direct conflict with the General Gov
ernment, and our own citizens probably
with pleb other in this deeply impor
tant'question. 'Judge Sharswood en
dorsed Judge Woodward, who was at
;tlie head aif this conspiracy, at that
time, and Judge Woodward now
en
dorses Judge Sharswood' as a fit and
'proper man to succeed hlm on the Su
preme Bench of the State.
Ili- 1864,Judge Sharswood himself
tried fro get his Court in Philadelphia to
"(Wein - i . e . - that U. S. Treasury Notes were
:not alegal tender—and promulgated au
elaborate Opinion that the Act of Con
gress declaring them to be so was un
comatutional and therefore void: For
tunately again, his two Republican col
leagues, Judges Storm and Hare over
rule him, and this second attempt .at
nullification was averted and Pennsyl-
van - la saved from . disgrace.
The people can judge from this what
sort of law may be anticipated from the
Supreme Bench of the - State if Judge
Sharswood should bold the balance of
power. Let them-tage care not to afford
Judge S. an opportunity to give more
decisions of the sai.me sort.

getting their eyes open to the evil in

newspapers similar in tone -to the fob.

We therefore do repeat what we have
already frequently called - attention to,
that the first step for the Southern peb

SAD OCCURRENCE.—A correspondent
informs us that Butler Burdick; while
attending an ice cream and strawberry
festival in a grove of Uniondale, in
Herdick township, on the Fourth, was
struck by lightning and instantly killed.
The unfortunate young man was stand
ing leaning against a large maple tree
when the lightningstruck it, and passed
down his body' and both legs to the
ground. Owen Carpenter, Freeman
Carpenter, Newell Burritt, Elias West
gate, T. B. Dimmick, and Mr. Stark
were standing near two trees fifteen or
twenty feet from the maple, and were
an knocked down and more or less
paralyzed.. Many others felt the shock.
The deceased was carried to the house
of Daniel Carpenter, and efforts made
to restore him, but he was no doubt
struck dean instantly. His remains
were then taken to hissorrowing friends,
at home. It was considered remarkable
that no one else was injured.—Montrose

of a short time the mother went to look
after her child and,' to her:indescribable

HARVEM-Our farmers are now
engaged in harvesting their wheat
crop; which is said to be the best that
has been raised in this county for many
years. The crop in the adjoining confi
des also comes fully up to the expect
ation, and promises an Immense yield.
As a natural consequence of this . holm?
tiful outpouring of OOd's• goodness; a
reduction in the, price of flour; • which
has been enormously high for a , long
time, must ensue.
If wheat brings two dollars a bushel
after harvest, we will be very much
dissapointed. Of course speculators
will endeaVor to:kecp the prices up, , but
the yield will be

COLOISIBTA.—We ,aee that Special ',dis

defeat of Mosquera, and of his eirort at
a revolution. , The nine States of the
Colombian Confederation have United-:
riy resolved to overthrow the ex-dictator,
as a traitor to the Liberal party and to'
his country. His support lies in an
armY-specially constituted by him, and
sustained by Engliab and French pow
ers or corporations, which desire to, con
trol the Panama route. His defeali . Will
be the defeat of foreign influence. 'Lind

as we of the northern portion of the

the report is true that he has been cap

The sufferings are far fewer to-day than

in preparing for the Indian war Gen

full elneation and was admitted to the
bar; ,tined the Young Ireland move

So far, no Democratic paper, in this
State has dared to pulisla the opinion of
Judge Shorewood in the' case of Bone
vs. Trott , against the ,constitutionality
of legal-tSnder notes. They abuse us
for giving it to the country, and defend
Judge Sharswood for, rendering it but
they will not print the opinion. They
graciously instruct their readers what
it all means, but they decline letting
them see it in Judge Sharawood's own
words. Now, we think that even the
men who read Democratic papers are
entitled to think and judge for them
selves, and not take the word of a par
tisan editor. Print the 'opinion, gentle
men, if you dare trust your readers.--
Lot Judge Shorewood plead, his own
ease. He will certainly do it better
than yen can for him.—. Press.
A funny case came before a justice In
Milwaukee- the otherday.„ A young
woman who had • accepted the atten
tions and civilities , of a gentleman for
some time, at length was married to
somebody else, whereupon the deceived
individual sued for a bill of $204 25, the
amount he had paid in her behalf in
taking her to concerts, operas, picnics,
rides and ice cream saloons. As an off=
set he credited her with sundry kisses
valued at $16,67i; several squeezes of
the hand, $3,3771; an unreturned photo
graph and a ring; making, In all, a to
tal of $37,75. He recovered the bill,
the judge allowing the plaintiff the
kisses at his own valuation.
GEO. FRANCIS TRAIN drives a mall of
truth in the following brief biographi
cal sketch of his own life :
"When I started out' in life travel
was my idol ; the world doubted. Then
I tried knowledge ; I got no praise.—
Then books ; they ridiculed. Then lan
guages; they sneered. Then patriotism;
they cheered first, then knocked me
down in Boston, • shot me in Dayton,
bayoneted 'me in' Davenport, arrested
toe in St. Louis, and tried to aaaasainate
me In Alton. But in spite of this I hate
my independence and individuality.—
(Loud ,api - .4aiiSe,). I asked the world

have made it; and'. am now devoting

A CARD' FROJf THE
AMERICAN ; WAT9II, CIPJJ'Ag
OF
WAL'iIiAM, MASS.
This Company bag leave to inform the public
that they commenced operations in 1850, and
their factory now covers four acres of ground,.
and has cost more than a million dollars, and
employs over . 7oo operatives. They produce 75,-
000 Watcheia yetir;and ina4e wad sell 'not less
than one-half of all thit watehes cold in the Uni
ted States. ;
The difference betwer their manufacture and
the Entopean, hariefly European Watchea
aro made almost entirely by hand,,and the result
is of necessity a lack of that, uniformity, which
is indispensable to correct timeAeeping. Both
the eye and the band of the most skillful opera
tive must vary. But it is a fact that, except
watches of the higher grades, European watches
are the product of the cheapest labor of Switz-,
erland, and the:result, is the worthiest! Antares,
Levines and so called Pattint Levers—which soon
cost more in attempted repairs, than their origi.
nal price. Common workmen,,boys and women,
_these watches
from various factories, polish and put them to
gether, and take them to the nearest watch mer
chant, who stamps and engraves them with any
name or brand that may bo ordered.
Slow AmeriCan,Watches arc Made.
The American Waltham Watch is made by no
such uncertain process—and by no such incom
petent workmen. All the Company's operations,
from the reception of the raw, materials to the
completion of the Watch, are carried on tipier
one roof, and under one skillful and comp tent
direction. Bat the groat distinguishing feature
of their Watches, Is the feet that their' - several
parte are all made by the finest, the most perfect
and delicate . machinery ever brought tertho aid
of human industry. Every one of then:lore than
a hundred parts' of every watch is made by a
machine—that infallibly reproduces every sue
Goulding part with the moat unvarying accuracy.-
It was only lascoseary to mane one perfect watch
of any particular style and then to adjust the
hundred machines necessary to repredime every
part of that watch, and it follows that every suc
ceeding watch must bo like it. '
The Company respectfully submit their watch
es on their merits only. They claim to make

that they shall be GOOD TIMEKEEPERS. It
