JEFFERSONIAN REPUBLICAN
The Election.

On Tuesday next the General Election taxes
place, when the freemen of Pennsylvania will
again be called upon to exercise the Invaluable
right of suffrage, and choose their public servants
for the coming year. In nearly all the counties
also they will have to elect their County House
officers; task imposed upon them by the new or
amended Constitution. This is an important du-
ty-and as every man is more or less interested
in having the public records and papers of the
different offices correctly and carefully preserved,
great care should be taken to have the offices
filed with honest and capable men.
The man of property and of business, the rich
and the poor, and the widow and the orphan. all
have deep interest in this matter, and few great
er evils could befal community than the seec-
,ion of bad or incompetent men, to take charge OF
the offices in which are deposited the evidences
of their Judgments their Land Titles, their Wills,
and the Criminal convictions. To the Legislature
TO be then chosen, the people will look for great
and important reforms The credit of the State
has been stretched to its utmost point. The IN
terest on the State Debt due on the lst of August
has not been paid, and no money will be in the
Treasury to pay that which will! fall due on the
first of February. And it depends altogether upon
the action of the next Legislature whether Penn
sylvania must in fact repudiate, or whether she
will be honest and retrieve her ancient good name.
When the people 60 TO the polls, let them remen-
Der these things.

Freemen. 10 the Polls!

In urging tie citizens of Monroe, this fall, to go
70 the Polls and faithfully to discharge the sacred
trust secured to them by the patriots of seventy
sir. we have no party ends to answer. The
Wings have presented no candidates for office,
and are therefore left free to choose who they will
support, independent of party. 1t is the duty Of
every man to go the polls and cast his vote for
those candidates who are the most worthy and de-
serving of office. The right of suffrage is privi-
lege which none but freemen possess. 1t exists,
in its purity, only in those countries where liberty
has taken up her abode; and in those places where
it is most dearly cherished, and the most careful
ly exercised the people are the freest and haPpi-
est The voters cannot be too careful in examin-
ing the merits of the different candidates. If a
bad or incompetent man is chosen, the whole
community are the sufferers, besides the evil ex-
ample resulting to others from his detection. Vir-
tue must be the guiding star both Of the candid
ale and the ElectOr, or else our form of govern
ment instead of being blessing, will become one
of the worst of evils.

Politics i'm Northampton.

The Delegate System in Old Northampton IS
all in ruins, and the organization Of the Loco Fo-
co party entirely broken up The Regular Tick
ct, selected by the Delegates to the County Con-
ventior, is a poor affair, and most of the men on
it were nominated against the wishes of large
majority of the party. Volunteer candidates are
out for the different county offices, with good
prospects Of success.
The friends Of the Regular Ticketheld meet
ing at Bath, on Saturday, which is represented as
having been a slim affair. Andrew H. Reeder
made speech on the occasion, and read James
M Porter out of the party. J. K. Hickman also
made a speech, during the delivery Of which ne
displayed number of coffin hand bills. The pro-
ceedings were denunciatory and ultra III the ex-
tTeme.
The disaTected portion Of the party, who are
IN favor of the Volunteers, held meeting on the
same day at Freemansburg. 1t was more than
twice as large as that at Bath, and every thing
passed off in the happiest manner. NJ. H. Jones
ESQ addressed the meeting.

A Lady Hnulcted for Breach of
Promise.

The rule that hard dollars will heal
wounded soft hearts, it seems, works
both ways. Men have been made to
suffer, at divers times, for those per-
juries at which ancient poets said Jove
laughs; but the Boston Post gives us
the first notice of a case In which the
lady is the sufferer. 1t seems that
Miss Emily S. Browne, of Sea Brook,
n. H., promised to marry Mr.. Pet
tengill Of Amesbury-at his special
request'--and assisted him in selecting
wedding garments, household furnl-
ture, and the like necessaries. Du-
ring all this time, however, she was
receiving the attentions of MIR.
McGregor, with whom just before
the day fixed for her marriage with
Mr., P, she eloped and became Mrs,
McGregor Mr. Pettengill, deemlng
himself treacherously dealt with and
insulted, sued the lady for breach of
promise, and obtained verdict "a
gainst her for 81 ,6OO-which her hus-
band had to pay. He found her thus,
at least in one sense, a dear compan-
ion.-N. 7. Tribune.

Sentence of John G. Colt, for Murder

We learn from the New York Commercial
Of last evening, that the convict, John e. Colt,
was sentenced by Judge Kent, of the Court Of
Oyer and Terminer, for The murder of Samuel
Adams, yesterday morning. The Judge sem
,enced him 10 be hanged on The 18th NOvem-
Der next,
Previous to receiving his sentence Coli read
paper, the substance of which was that he
wished his case might be carried 10 The Court
for he Correction Of Errors, and application
was made 10 that effect by his counsel.
Colt requested the Court, if sentence were
passed, 10 omit the usual remarks made under
such circumstances, as unnecessary in his case.
Judge Kent having made an alusion 10 The
jurymen who heard the testimony, and return.
ed the verdict, Colt rose, as firm and self-pos.
sessed, as ever man showed himself in such
situation, and said that he did not intend 10
cast the slightest reflection on The jury He
doubted not they had acted conscieniiously.
But he said, public opinion had changed, and
he believed that nine-teRihs Of the community
were convinced that he had not committed a
wilful murder.
81 have never committed an action in my
life," said he, (which, under the same circum-
stances, would not do again. | was insuled
in my Office, and resented il then, as | would
do now, which led 10 this result"
The manner and matter of this speech was
strikingly characteristic of the whole character
and life OF this unfortunate man.
Colt exhibited his usual firmness Of character,
and during the delivery Of the sentence, did not
seem 10 betray the slightest enolion-Daily

The Assembly Ticket.

There are two Assembly Tickets presented to
the voters of Monroe this fall. The one contains
the names of Joseph Kerr, Asa Packer. and JEFF
ferson X. Hickman, and was formed by the Del
egaies at Ehret's, in Plainfield township. The
other is composed of Joseph Kerr, Asa Packer,
and Isaac Stout, and was confirmed by County
meeting held at Bath. The only difference be-
tween the two is the substitution of the name OF
Isaac Stout for that of ] K. Hickman. They are
both loco focos and it is therefore, as far as party
is concerned, immaterial to US which of them is
elected Mr. Hickman represented the District,
however, in such a manner, last winter, that the
State would loose very little by his defeat.

Great Slaughter Of Il .assians.

According TO letter from the frontier Of Pc
land, of the lS,h ul' the great expedition against
the Lesghees undertaken by General Grabbe,
in June last had completely failed. The fail
ure was ascribed to the obstnacy of The gener-
al, who, in his anxiety 10 strike great blow,
declined attending 10 the recommendations Of
the friendly tribes, by whom he was accom-
panied, and having penetrated TOO far into the
country, was surrounded on all sides, and was
compelled TO fish, his way back, without being
able 10 afford any rest 10 his troops, during four
days and fonr nights. The Russians are said
TO have lost G.000 men in that disastrous re-
treat. The CIrcassians had captured 13 pie
ces of artillery, 70 of which were subsequent
ly taken by the Russians. The former, how
ever, succeeded in carrying off the whole Of
the ammunition -Four battalions, and upwards
of 80 officers had been put to the sword by the
Circassians

VENTRILLooUIsM PRACTICALLY lLLusTRA-
TED.-In Baltimore, as Wyman, the ventrIllo-
qusr was passing the horse market, he was
accosted by jockey with "let me sell you this
poney." "I1ow old is he! 2" said Wylnan.--
''Seven last spring" answered the jockey
ooh, what lle!" calculated a most unearIhly
sound "rm 3, and you know it as we'll as
do" The astonished jockey look around, un-
der the impression that some acquaintance, by
way of joke, had volunteered a speech IN be-
half Of the poney, but discovered no one. This
perplcxed him, and striking the horse across
the neck, the same voice cried "if you do that
again, you blackguard, III throw you Oft and
kick out your brains" This second speech
was too much for The dumioundcd rider, who
leaped from the horse and started to run, much
to the amusement Of the byslanders; and 1t was
with great difficulty that he could be persuaded
10 mount the poney again, after he joke was
explained.

A Strange BIRD.

Col Edward Webster, of Montford
Manor, Baltimore county, shot a bird
a few days since, which is called the
Whskered-combed WhippoormiN 1t
has whiskers on each side of its mouth,
and its feet are provided with combs,
(as they are called, which it is said
to use dexterously on the whiskers.
1t is a curiosity; but we think that its
name should be changed to the Dan
dY Bsrd.-Daily Chronicle.

Texas Patriots.

A New Orleans paper publishes a
list of the delegates WHO signed the
Declaration of Independence of the
Republic of Texas, on the 2nd of
March, 1886. We observe only two
Pennsylvanians, namely, Edward
Conrad, brother of Judge Conrad,
of Philadelphia city, and as gallant a
spirit as ever lived, and S Rhoads
Fisher The editor of the New Or
leans Bulletin, IN publishing this list,
says, "Well do we remember being
in the town of Washington, on the
Brasos river, (Texas,) on the night
when the Declaration Of Indepen-
dence was signed 1t was a night of
alarm and confusion. The disastrous
news of the fall ofthe Alamo--of the
death of Farris, Bowie and Crockett.
was brought at sun-down by mes
senger hot and furious from the seat
ofmassacre"

The Loco Focos have been discovered in
plot to carry the city of Philadelphia, by packing
the different wards with men who have no settled
residence there. and who, soon as the Election
is over, would have left it. The National Clay
Club has offered reward of $500 for the detec-
ton and conviction Of any person who was an ac-
tive participant in the attempted fraud.

Mr. Adams Speech.

We call the attention Of our readers TO an ac-
count on our first page, of the reception OF the
Hon. John Q. Adams, by his constituents at Wey-
mouth on his return from Washington, and to an
abstract of his speech on the occasion. The re-
ception was honorable alike to the people and to
their distinguished Representative. The Speech
like every thing else from Mr.. Adams, is good,

The Desperate Lover.

Michael Francis, an Italian sail
maker, attached to the Revenue cut
ter Taney, the other day at Norfolk,
attempted to shoot Mrs Anderson, the
keeper of boarding house, because
she wouldn't have him Michael dis
charged a pistol at the widows head
and made her jump from balcony
fifteen feet from the ground. He
then threw himself upon the floor and
tried to blow his brains out with an
empty pistol! The desperate man is
in prison.
