that such is really the case" Under such circum.

Washington's Warning Voice to the

"The wnity of government which con-

safety, of your prosperity, efthat Uery
E5ertY arhich y0u SO highly prize. But,
as it is easy to %foresee that, from differ

should cherish a cordial, habi'ual, and

WHAT HIs NEIGHBOURS SAY OF
HIM.

1t is no matter of trifiDg consideration
and Importance, that those who know a
man best should eulogize him most.
More especially is praise to be valued
when it is extorted from a political op-
ponent. The Lancaster (Pa.) Express,
a Known thing Republican paper, pub
lished in the immediate neighborhood
of MI. B~uchanan's residence, is compel
led to bear testimony to Lis unbending
integrity aud blameless life. After a
few Introductory remarks the editor pro-
ceeds to say
We know the man as one of our most
respected fellow-citizens; a gentleman of
unblemished personal integrity and un-
usually agreeable manners in his social
intercourse with all classes. We know
him as the friend of the poor, as q per-
Fetual benefactor to the poor widows of
this city, who when the piercing blasts
of each successive winter brought shrieks
of cold and hunger, and want, in the frail
tenements of poverty, could apply to the
Buchanan Relief Donation" for their
annual supply Of wood, and sitting
down with their orphaned children in the
cheerful warmth of q blazing fire, lift
their hearts in silent gratitude to God,
and teach their little mes to bless the
name of james Buchanan. As a citizen,
a neighbor, a friend, in a word, as sim
ply James Buchanan, We yielded to no
man in the measure of our respect and
esteem, and were he still before us as
simply jane sBuchanan, as he was a few
years, since and when he and we occupied
the same broad Jeffersonian republi-
can platform, when at least one o the edi-
tors of this paper voted with him year
after year the same Democratic ticket,
then ours would be the more pleasing
duty of supporting instead of opposing
the election of our esteemed fellow-citi-
zen and neighbor to the highest office in
the gift of the American people, and
the highest position of political distinct
ion in the world.

appear To be laboring with comniendable zeal
to keep your readers posted in regard to all
matters affecting their political. social and PEE
culinary welfnrcs, permit us to call their atten-
ton to the fact that we have just received the
heaviest stock Of Spring and Summer Goods
that we have ever brought to this market. An
extended enumeration OF our stock we deem
altogether unnecessary for the reason that eve
~ one who will favor us with a call viii find it
complete in every department. We would
simply simply say that it embraces articles of
every style, variety and quality of Ladies'
Dress Goods, and Gentlemen's Summer Wear,
together with a large assortment of House
Keeping Goods, Queensware, Groceries, DC.
Having changed our mode of doing business,
it will be proper for us to STATE, for the salts
faction Ct our old customers, briefly, our req
sons for so doing. Our first great object is to
sell goods CHEAP. To do this we must have the
money to buy our goods cheap. We wish TO
avoid The losses of bad debts and " long wind
ed customers we wish to save the expense
of keeping books and m making collections. BY.
50 doing we can and will sell goods at much
less profits than is possible for any credit store
to do LIST, because we shall have the money
to buy our goods, which will save US 10 per.
cent, End, because we shall save the expense
of one Clerk Sd, we will save per cent. for
making collections, losses by bad debts and
expense of books. All things considered, We
think it safe to say that it will make al differ
enee of at least 10 per cent. to the consumer.
This being true we think every man, woman
and child who can pay for their goods, viii
avail themselves of the advantages of this sys-
tenn. Those who never expect to pay for their
goods, of course care but little about the price.
All those who wish to buy goods cheap for rea-
dy paycan inc a stock of goods which for va.

equaicd in the County, by calling on their

AN ELOQUENT AND PATRIOTIC
LETTER.

We call especial attention to Mr.. b.
cHANAN's letter of acceptance which we
publish in to-day's paper. 1t will be
the pride of every Democrat in the land,
during the campaign, to point his err
ring Black Republican brother to this
noble exposition of the patriotic senti.
ments of his illustrious standard bearer.
At his home, the Sage Of Wheatland now
looks out upon the storm of fanatical ex-
element which is sweeping over the
land, and trembling for the fate of his
country, in a spirit of lofty patriotism
exclaims: "Under these circumstances,
I most cAeertuHy pledge mySeyf; should
the nomination Of the Convent on be
ratified by the people, that all the polcer
ard influence, constitutionally possessed
by the Executive, SHALL BE ExERTED, IN
q firm bit cOnciIiatory spirit, during
the single term I shall remain in Office,
to restore tie same harmony among the
sister States which prevailed before this
apple Of discard, IN the form Of slavery
agitation, had been cast into their
midst !" Freemen of Ashland County,
mark well this emphatic declaration.
Who that desires this eternal slavery
agitation to cease-where is the man
that loves the Union and the Coustitu-
ton, and longs for tho triumph of free
dom throughout all the land, that is not
satisfied with this declaration? Are
the American people SO lost to reason, to
their own and their country's welfare,
that they will sacrifice such a mar as
JAMES BUCHANAN and elevate to the
Presidency in his stead, that smallest of
all small politicians, JOHN G. FREMONT?
We cannot, We will not believe it. Let
every Democrat preserve this letter. 1t
will remain to perpetrate the nam and
fame of its illustrious author, long after
all recollection of FREMONT and his Buff.
falo hunts shall have passed away.
