I, the undersigned, having been under the treat
ment of DR.. l., j. Czapkay, although unsolicited,
feel called upon to give publicity to the efficacy of
his treatment, hoping that by so doing, may be
instrumental in preventing others from the fearful
suffering and misery which | experienced, and
which so often result from the perncious practice
of pretcnders. My disease has been that of physi-
cal and mental debility, which follows in conse-
quence OF the indiscreton of youth. The agonies
which endured are, perhaps unnecessary for me
to detail; they are known TO those who have expe-
renced them. Suffice ii to say that having called
the services of DR.. l.. j. Czapkay in requisition,
all my expectations which may have formed OF
him were more than realized. would, therefore
recommend Dr. Czapkay to all who may find them.

ject in so doing being sympathy for suffering hu

called to mind many of the gems that have fall

we have admired and laughed over, and read
mired and laughed again. years ago. We must
hunt up some of his productions and publish

around the butt of the stick would have hollow
Of II inches and therefore be too large to fit
over the 10 inch end
FDDIETowN--Your answer of $40 feet is too
much. You doubtless squared both ends and
took the average. That rule will always give
too much.

Democratic Meeting at Pine Grove.
PIKE GROVE, Aug. 26th, 1851


EDIToRs LEDGER-G EYrs: The Democratic
meeting at this place was well attended con-
sdering the slight interest manifested by all
parties for the reason that all concede, that
John b. Weller is to be our next Governor
and that our county ticket will prevail by
a large majority.
The meeting was organized by calling TO the
chair Thos s. Crafts who introduced Mr. l..
\, ketcham, proceeding quite unnecessary,
aS the sight of the pleasant face of our can
didate for Senator brought out three hearty
cheers from our hardy miners who, of course,
recognized him as being one of their number;
DIX having practised in our banks and bed
rock,swith the pick and shovel for a long
time--success to Ketcham, is the word with
our miners After an excellent, appropriate
and we'll seasoned address from DIR. Ketcham,
the following Gents were successively called
out who entertained the audience until late
hour, viz: King and Stewart nominees for as
sembly and also Geo l.. Gale, A. ii. Rose,
\. NJ. Ballard, Rynerson, Miller and A. w.
Rose, mostly candidates in our township, and
Frank Mcbride, nominee for Supervisor;
several of these we're quite happy in their
remarks, particularly SO was Mr.. Ballard,
who said that the other night after having
listened to the speech of Col. Weller, so i'm

distinguished man and his own insignifcance,

The State Debt-who is Responsible.

1t is charged by the opponents of the De
mocracy that the Democratic party are alone
responsible for the debt that hangs over the
people of this State. To use plain language,
they sag that whiA is false
Let any fair man examine the financial affairs
OF the State and they will see that the oppo-
nents OF Democracy have been the great leech-
es on the public treasury WALDO BEG
GED TWENTY-SEvEN THOUSAND
DOLLARS out of the State for money he ex
pended in aiding emigrants; and PICKET
begged NINE THOUSAND FIVE HUN
DRIED DOLLARS at the same session of
the Legislature, the wings going for both the
appropriations. Waldo expended his in rum
ming against Bigler in '53, and Picket has
spent his in fighting the party and still keeps
up his crazy warfare. Bates, the American
party Treasurer is defaulter for ONLY A
HUNDRED AND TWENTY FOUR
THOUSAND DOLLARS IN ONE
LUMP, besides several thousands for spend
ing money. We dare the opposition to ex-
anime the record and see who voted for ex-
penditures and who got the money.
There has been probably five hundred
thousand dollars uselessly voted away, but if
any one says that the Democrats alone voted
it away, they tell falsehood again, either ig-
norantly or wilfuy.
The remainder of the State debt is for
regular expenses, such as pay to Know Moth
ing officials among the rest, like Coffroth and
Bates and McCallum and Murrey and Brews-
ter and the horde Of others, Republicans
among them, that from time to time have
been in Office in this State Every man who
received dollar from the State added to the
debt THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A
DOLLAR BORROWED at any time, al
though Know Nothing and Republican speak
ers convey that idea.
We do not intend to sustain the running
mp of such a debt; far from it, but we ask
DID Ill Ia VI L OSlllON ~ ll1E 1JE-
MOCRACY TRY TO PREVENT IT p
Dill they refuse to cote an farOr Of any mare
appropriations after the debt lcas teyond tie
constitutional limit? NO! And yet the debt
has been above that limit for about six years!
They were anxious to secure the spoils and
so long as they had chance for a grab they
kept dark
Then why do they try to throw the blame
all on the Democracy? Because they want
to get their noses again into the public crib
for the purpose of robbing the treasury.
Mushroom parties wont do to trust They
know they are to be short lived aud there
fore they steal with vengence. Look at the
short time the Republicans were in power in
Congress-three members, elected by tie
Republican Know Nothings,) had to be ex
PEELED for bribery The short career of the
Know Nothings in this State is needless to
refer to-it was nothing but corruption.
The fact is, the Democracy is the true re-
form party-the only one it is safe to trust.
