PENNSYLVANIA.

The contest in this State this fall will be
one Of the grandest in the political annals
of the country. 1t has always been consider
ed :he Keystone of the Democratic arch,
and is the home OF the President. On one
side will be arrayed once powerful, but
fast waning party, and all the patronage OF
corrupt Administration, on the other the
energetic and determined Republicans, and
the brave Anti-Administration Democrat Ii,
led by the fearless FoRsEY. They are
measuring arms, and throughout the entire
State the din of preparation is heard for the
great conflict We see it stated somewhere
that Pennsylvania viii return but two Dem
ocrats to Congress. ''As goes Pennsy Iva
MIA SO goes the Union," has been the
wstchword for years. The result cannot
but be gratifying to every lover Of right,
wherever found. Poor "old Buck" will be
bucked out o. the Presidential chair with
less credit than his unfortunate predecessor.

The Philadelphia Press says of Col.
Kane:
ale locks, naturally enough. bronzed with
the hue Of travel; but he comes back in
buoyant spirits and hearty good health. His
tour, full of exciting romance and strewn
with incidents of peril, has strengthened
rather than impaired his system"
The New York Tribune says of Col K:
The Government having disavoUed all
connection with Col. Kane's efforts the
credit of making them, and of the success
with which they have been crowned, be.
longs entirely 20 him. Ir our judgment thew
constitute claim upon the esteem and
gratitude OF the country which can never be
disputed. He has avoided the effusion ot
blood, he has saved the expenditure of mi /.
lions; he has substituted peace for war in
which glory was impossible. A private
citizen, he has done what all the power OF
the Government could not accomplish
Honor to the patriot and peace maker!
The Press quotes this, and says:
We are sure that the entire country will
echo a cord ia assent TO the sentiments ex-
pressed in ;his paragraph. They are simply
just, and cannot, by any construction, be
strained into the language of flaitery or
adulation. Few SO young in years have won
so deserved and imperishabe a need of fame.

The Gazette on Fusion.

The lugubrious waling CT the Ga,ette oi
last week sounds like funeral note in ad-
ynnce. Our Falstaffian neighbor throws
up his hands in. pious ecstacy aud exclaims,
1--WE want to see a union of the opposition.
Hundreds who have heretofore acted with
these organizations (Republisan end Amer
icsn) will promptly take their positions in
the Democratic ranks, the moment they
find the;r leaders are about 10 betray them"
As set off.to this reckless assertion, we
will agree TO find two Democrats who will
cut loose from their fast sinking ship, the
u,oment this union against fraud and treach-
erv is consummated, TO every Republican
who will Join it. Perhaps il the editor was
% cast his e;es over the names attached TO
the call, in tl-day's paper, he might find
s,ne familiar in the Democratic camp
Here is q crurnb OF comfort. A reliable gen.
,Ieman. who has been instrumental in cir
cula,inr the call, in distant part of the
county, writing under date of tie 9TH inst,
SAYS:
IL have moi bad time TO go all through
the n.iphborhood, OF | might have pro-
cured as MANY more. Many OF the persons
ub, sioned the call are Democrats, but are
getting tired Of the misrule of Buck e.

And SO it goes. Lsgions of honest Dem
ocrats all over the North are preparing to
sever their connections with that defunct,
putrid party, and are determined to nave
their voices heard, and make this influence
felt.
We have an abiding faith in the honesty
and integrity of the people. Party spirit
and party prejudices may for time lead
them sstray; but let them have light--let
them see where corrupt leaders are taking
they will eagerly and with one
voice unite in putting them down.

Gravel and Stone.

By this we understand collection Of
sand like substance having been lodged in
The passage of the urine When the sys-
fem is in healthy state, this substance is
carried off by the natural passage of the
body; but when there is a weakness OF any
organ,. especially the kidneys, they become
inca paLle of expell:ng such sandy concre-
tons, and consequently they are lodged in
the kidneys, uretha, or the bladder, causing
great Inflammation TO those organs and
great pains and swelling ,and great difficulty
in voiding urine. 1t has been admitted by
many physicians, that Morse's Indian Roo.
Pills are made out Of some particular plants
which have a wonderful charming influence
in dissoiving the subs tance which has
clogged the passage, and by their cooling
properties, they expel all inflammation, and
leave the water passage in an active and
healthy state. From three TO four OF these
Pills night and morning, from one to two
weeks, will decide how this Dreadful disease
is to be treated, and as they remove the
auss o! every kind of diseese, it is utterly
for them TO fail in curing the
gravel, as they unclog the passage, and
leave the parts in "a healthy and lively con-
dition.
Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills are sold by
all dealers in Medicines.

with his career, is very correct. 1t is very
plain in front, the entrance being barred
by substantial iron door. The whole rock

a keavy chain, supported by small stone

DR.. Roback's Theory abd Practice

DR.. Roback's Theory apd Practice
1t would seem that DR.. ROback's "Scan-
dinavian Remedies" have taken the highest
rank among toe standard medicines of the
day. His theory is, that in whatever organ
disease may show itself, its roots are in the
blood. Hence bis famous Swedish curatyes
the Blood Purifier and the Blood Pills arc
designed to act upon the sanguineous fluid.
One IT, ing cannot be disputed, they produce
most sau,ary effects even in apparently
hope ess cases. Individuals who have suf-
Tered for years from dyspepsia, scrolulaY
eruptions of the skin, bronchitis, asthma,
general prostration, liver complaint, rheu-
matsm, neuralgia, and many other distress
ing maladies, report themselves, over their
own signatures, as radically cured by
course Of these Remedies. The claims of
DR.. Roback's advertisements are therefore
supported BY competent proof.-&e Ad-
