State was to be obtained only by means of
measures looking to the transfer of our work
shops from the soil of Europe to our own
hesotoed, That it is our determination at
the coming election to vote for no man for
congress who is not in favor of the restora-
ton OF the system SO ably advocated by those
great men; that with the Hon. James T.
Hale of Centre county for our candidate. we
will 60 to the polls, knowing that we have
man IN whose honesty, integrity, ability and
unwaveringfirmn we have eeveryconidenee,
and therefore heartily approve of the instruc-
tons given to the Congressional Conferees,
ut our late County meeting, in his favor, as q
candidate for Congress in this congressional
district.
Res0lred, That we recommend to the people
of this county the candidates this day nomi-
mated as deserving of their support, being
well qualified, honest and faithful.
ResO{red, That DIR. Charles Bower, in his
votes on all the principal acts before the Leg
islature. has not represented the wishes of the
people OF this county, nor, in giving them,
consulted " the greatest good to the greatest
number" thus showing that, instead of being
the representative of the people, he is but the
voice of faction
FROST IN Acknowledgement valley,
Big valley, Decatur, and other localities in
this county, were visited with frost on
Tuesday morning last. We have not heard
that much injury was sustained in conse-
quence thereof, the weather being very dry,
but this earl indication of cold nights Gre
ates strong fears that the only good crop
our farmers are likely to realize this year,
namely, corn, will also be injured
CAMP MEETING.-The camp meeting
for Lewistown Circuit commenced on Fri
day last and terminated yesterday Some
twenty-four tents were up, most of them
filled to overfowing The number of per-
sons in attendance on Sunday was large,
and everything we believe passed off in
a satisfactory manner, though we opinc the
cold nights would have been more agreeably
passed at home On Friday next the camp
near ReedsYille commences. Both these
camps are located in rather out-ofthe-way
Places mistake we think
The Bridge over the canal at this
place was repaired in a very substantial
manner last week by the hands in the en-
ploy Of the Canal Department of the Penn
sylvania Railroad Company. This action
is in marked contrast with the state Of things
existing while the canal was owned by the
State, so much being wanted for "stealings,"
that in almost every instance difficulties of
sonic kind were boroughs being
asked to contribute, funds or authority
wanting, or some other excuse Quite
number of farm and other bridges we no.
tee have been either repaired or rebuilt.
and VIC have no doubt before long people
along the canal will find that while the
company will claim its rights, The rights of
others will also be respected.
