Molly Maguire.


This is the name says the MOnfour
.American, of a secret political order of
Roman Catholics in the city of Philadel-
phia, and they are no doubt also organ
lzed all over the State. They are
so,emnly sworn against every American
by birth, whether he belongs to the
Democratic party or not Papists are to
be put into power wherever it can be done.
They believe that the Democratic party
cannot succeed without their votes, and
thus holding the balance ofpOwer in their
hands, they will force the Democrats to
60 for the men the secret order may select
for office. They are so well organized
that already they defy the democraic.palty
to reject any OF the candidates presented
by'Molly Mcguire. Thus The Democrat
of American birth finds himself in the
hands and in the power Of secret order
of foreign Catholics, thousand fold
more dangerous to Democracy than the
dreaded Know No!hings, How can The
Democrats act with these sworn and secret
lodges into which they canhot enter .
All ! say the Molly Maguires, we have
followed the Democratic party long
enough now let them follow us. When
James II. Campbell was the Democratic
candidate for Supreme Judge, he fell
short some thousands of the party vote.
This the Papists have not forgotten and
they are determined to rule the Demo
cratic party and make it subservient to
their own peculiar interests,
Since the nomination Of Esq, McKin-
ney, for the State Senate, by the Demo
cratic party, in this district, in opposition
to Blakey, Jealous Catholic of the
Roman Church it is thought by many
outsiders that the Molly Magssire asso
citation is taking strong hold Of the
Catholic wing of that party in this, and in
Columbiana county. What say you
American Democrats We should not
be surprised if self protection would yet
compel you to fly for refuge TO the Amer
can party. Come along there is room on
the KnOw Nothing platform for every
good Protestant Democrat in the county,
State and Nation. Iii the only party
that can elIectualIy check Catholic usur-
patton.

BEST REMEDY FOR TOOTH AoHE.-A
drop or two of Bragg's Arctic Liniment,
put into the hollow Of an aching TOOTH,
will quickly relieve the sufferers agony.
Its penetrative property is SO great that
it instantly reaches the seat of the pain,
and drives out the inflammation from the
throbbing nerve. If the face be swollen,
one or two applications of the Lini ment
will remove the swelling by causing the
bad humor to be absorbed and driven off.
There is no longer any occasion for suffe-
ers from tooth ache passing sleepless
nights of agony: Braces ARCTIC LINIMENT
affords speedy relief and may be OBJ
tanned at any respectable Dfug store.

CIRcUsEs.-The editor of the Nashville
Christian Advocate expresses the follow
ing decided and earnest sentiments in
reference to circus exhibitions
"These itinerating pests have been
among US. They constitute national
institution, and one more demoralizing
can scarcely be found. And. yet we are
sometimes asked whether it is wrong for
members of the church to attend them J.
Professors of religion who can ask such
a question tell their own tale; it is very
obvious they have neither part nor lot in
this matter--lheir hearts are not right in
the sight of God. We advise them. as
we should advise all other unregenerate
persons, 10 repent; and if they will not
do this, let them go out ofthe church, and
60 where they belong, to the world. See
EphesiaIs v. II any of them rpfuse to
do this, but on the contrary will visit cir
cuses, theatres and balls, those who have
them in spiritual charge are fearlully
dercict in regard to their official duty, il
they do not apply the Discipline 10 them,
and save the church from the scandal
and reproach Of their inconsistency.

INDIAN SUMMER OF LIFE. In the life
Of the good man there is an Indian Sum.
mer more beautiful Than that of the sea-
sons richer, SUMMER and more sublime
than The most glorious Indian summer of
the soil, When the glow Of youth has
departed when the warmth of middle age
is gone, and the buds and blossoms of
spring are changing to the sere and yel-
low leaf, tten the mind Of the good man,
still ripe and vigorous, relaxes its labors,
and the memories OF "a well.spent life
gush forth from their secret fountains
enriching, rejoicing, and fertilizing; then
the trustlul resignation of the Christian
sheds around swee. and holy warmth.
and the soul, assuming heavenly lusIer,
is no longer restricted to the narrow con,
fines of business, but scars far beyond
the winter of hoary age, and dwells peace
fully and happily upon that bright spring
and sun. mer which await him within The
gates of Paradise evermore. Let us
strive for and look truslfully forward to
an Indian summer like this.

We see by the court records that the
two counterfeiters White of Buffalo, and !
Lawrence of Epping N. Hampshire, have
been placed under ten thousand dollars
bonds, each, for making and selling, imi-
tations of Ayers Cherry Pectoral. This
is right. If the law should protect men
from imposition, it should certainly pro-
tect them from being imposed upon by q
worthless counterfeit of such a medicine.
as Ayers Cherry Pectoral. We can only
complain that the punishment is not hall
enough. The villain who would for paitry
gain, deliberately trifle with the health OF
his fellow man, by taking from their lips'
the cup of hope, when they are sinking
and substitute falsehood-an utter delu-
sion, should be punished ut least as severe
" as he who counterfeits the coin OF ms

STUpRNDos FRAUDs.-The committee

official stealing and malleasunce to the

A FAMIsHED WANDERER.-"1 should
like very much to hear story" said
tickle and thoughtless youth to his teacher.
II hate serious instruction; can't bear
preaching"
+ 'Listen,s theu,n- said the teacher: a
wanderer filled his travelling pouch with
savory meats and frais, as his way would
lead him across a wide desert! During
the first lew days he journeyed through
the smiling, fertile fields, But instead
of plucking the fruits which nature here
offered for the re(reshment Of the traveller,
he found it more convenient to eat of the
provisions which he carried with him.
He soon reached the desert, After Jour-
neying on for a few days, his whole store
of food was exhausted He now began to
wall and lament, for nowhere sprouted
blade of grass; everything was covered
with burning sand. After suffering for
two long days in torments of hunger and
thirst he expired" ..-. .. =
at was foolish in him." said the youth.
"to forget that he had to cross the desert"
"Do you act more wisely?" asked the
teacher in an earnest tone. "You are
setting forth on the journey Of life--a
journey that leads to- eternity. Now is,
the time when you should seek after
knowledge, and collect the treasures of
wisdom but the labor atfrights you, and
you prefer TO triae away the spring.time
of years amid useless and childish pleas
ures. Continue to act thus, and you will
yet, upon the journey oflife, when wisdom
and virtue fail you, fare like that hapless
wanderer. "--StudeM and Schoolmate.

Great American Victory

Overwhelming Triumph,-The issue
Of yesterday says the Baltimore Clipper,
of the 18th ult, is glorious to dwell
upon not indeed from the paramount
importance of the simple end achieved so
mnch as the whitening condemnation oI
our reviIers, at home and abroad, which
the mighty result thunders forth to their
CONSERVATION, and in tones not TO be mis-
understood. 1t has been the empty boast
of our slanderers that Baltimore was
"iired". of American rule, and that con-
seryaiye element was in the ascendancy.
Good lacka.day! what chimera The
motley host has been "routed, horse, foot
and dragoon," and so sadly disromf'ted
that to rally again is impossible. Poor
conglomerated Democracy is badly, aye
numerically whipped, and it will he a
long time before we shall be seriously
troubled with its imperiinent hangers on
in or seats of public authority.
The increased majority, for the Amer
lean ticket in one year, is 1864.
