TIE BLOOMsBURG BAND

THE BLOOMSBURG BAND.
The Committee of arrangements of the
democratic celebration owe this Band their
thanks for their generous manner in whics
they volunteered the services for the day.
1t is now less than year since this Band
was organized, and we venture to say that
few even elder associations can excel them
in the skill and taste with which they play.
Indeed, it was remarked by distinguished
gentleman present, that he had never heard
" Yankee Doodle played better. We sin
cerely hope that the citizens Of this place
will encourage them onward in their march
of improvement, that they may continue to
be what they now are, credit to them
selves and to the village in which they re-
side.

"The "Sraight-out Harrisonian' of the
9th June, published at Columbus, holds the
following language, it being tie concluding
paragraph of long editorial article in IA
vor of National Bank
"But the banks, as they now stand re-.
qulrs an institution to keep them wi,hin
proper bounds as to their issues of bank
notes: so FAR as experience goes, nothing
will do it but A NATIONAL BANK"
The Federal faction are becoming sensi-
BILE that disgrace is fastening on them, from
the secret and crooked policy which they
have adopted They have therefore, by
way of assuming an appearance of bold
frankness, established print which they
call the "S'TRAIGHT-OUT HARRISO-
MAN !! !" This organ proves its sense of
the mischief Of the non-committal policy,by
coming stSaight-ou for National Bank.
ConceaIment on this subject was indeed al
most ludicEous, when the cashered Bank
and its parlizans were pouring out hundreds
of thousands of dollars in electioneering
appliances, to gain, with the reelection
of HARRISON, new national charter.

Log Cabin Fare.-FederaI Whiggery,
says the Pennsylvania in its ludicrous at.
tempts to assume popular manner, and 10
descend and take the people by the hand,
talks much about " log cabin fare" 1t will
be seen however from the subjoined, that
their notions on this subject are about as en-
lighiened as The ideas of the French pin
cess, who on hearing that the people Of
Paris were starving for want OF bread, ask
ed why they did not eat cakes--she would,
rather than starve. In a Boston paper Of
the goth of June, we find an invitation to a
great Harrison Jubilee, TO be held in South
Boston, on the 4lh Of July, at which a
" morning collation." was to be served up,
consisting of the following articles, which
are designated as (" log cabin fare"
." Cold ham and tongue; do. saltpetered
beef; do. boenf lamod; do. veal and lamb;
sandwiches, bread and butter; crackers and
cheese, RED CIDER; iced lemon ade."
The New York Evening Post says that
this brings to mind the story Of pamperd
scion OF royalty, who being told Of the
bardships of a military life, exclaimed,
" Who cares for hardships (! Give me
cold fowl and bottle Of elaret, and cen
get on any where"
