Tuesday Next, —The day of the general elec
tion. v
Tickets.—The Tickets are now printed and ready
for distribution.
Crowded out. --Several communications received
by us. They will appear in our next.
Remember, —That on Tuesday next, is the day
of election, On that day let democrats do their du
ty, their whole duty, and nothing but their duty.
Sid Bereavement.—We noticed last week the
death from Diptheri* of two members of the family
of Mr. Frutchy. Since that time two more of his
Children have fallen victims to this terribly fatal
disease ; making four in all taken out of the same
family circle, within the short period of about one
Week.
Democratic Meetings.— Hand bilts have been
Issued from this office, calling meetings at the follows
ingtimes and places:
On Friday at 1 o'clock, p. m. at the Forks in Forks
ton. In the evening of same day at Mehoopany.
On Saturday evening at the Bacon Stand in Nich
olson.
Speakers from abroad will be in attendance.
The News of the War for the past week has
been very meager. No battles have been fought, < r
important.changes taken place along the line of the
Potomac. A despatch from Gen. Grant, says that
our forces have gained a victory at Corinth, Mis-, in
which two batteries and several hundred prisoners
were taken. The loss in killed and wounded, is se
rious.
I*'at Yeai ling.—Mr Stemples tho butcher at
this place, last week, slaughtered a yearling of the
common stock, which weighed, when dressed, four
nundred and eleven pounds. As the tax on all cat
tle slaughtered, under the age of 18 months, is now
but 5 cents per head, while on those above that, it is
30 cts, it is feared that our friend John, will be
charged with selling too much meat, and paying to
little tax. Congress will probably remedy the mat
ter by increasing the tax, or " old Abe" will issue
• proclamation forbidding steers growing so large.
