ident would look to them for his guidance in
the discharge of his official duties. To us all
this issue is pregnant with importance IF the
citizens Of the slave & non slave holding states
cannot continue to regard each other as brcth-
rem, as fellow countremen, the sooner the
Union is dissolved the better. The Union
between the northern and Southern states,
then would exist only in name, because
there would not be an equality of rights. The
dissolution of The Union would certainly be
the most direful calamity that could befal the
American people; 1t would blot them from
the book of Nations, and place them on an
equality with the citizens of the South Amer
lean States In order to avert this direful
calamity, all sincere democrats shouk stand
firm. They should look to principles and not
to men. They should not degrade themselves
into the position of nan worshippers. But
on the contrary they should at once assume
the position of freemen, maintaining the dig

E Our town at the present time is blessed
with very large assortment of dogs, of all
varieties; from the dignifed Spaniel, to the
impudent snarling cowardly fist. We coun-
ted twelve in the "Dimond" one day last
week at one time. They were all evidently
wide awake and 'Juu Of .feas,'' and like
Burns ''twa dog" seemed bent on wea-
rying each other in diversion. AS our
town contains very large assortment of
CANNES at the present time, il may not be
out of place to inform their owners, that but
few men like to be barked and snarled at by
either full grown bcagles or half grown pup
pies. Dogs which are permitted to prowl
around the streets are always a nuisance in a
town as large as Ebensburg.

eve were informed yesterday that diff
fculty occurred at the Blue Lick polls on
Monday, between two young men, William
Abbott and Delaney, in which their fathers
became involved, when the elder D. struck
the elder A. with piece of lead pipe, which
so enraged the son of the latter that he drew
large bowie-kaife, and thrust it twice
through his breast, the blade passing out at
his back. Delaney died almost Immediately,
but while he was breathing his last, the faith
er of the youth snatched the knife from his
sons hand and cut the dying mans face and
head until he lost all human semblance An
eyewitness says the deceased was literally
carved and cut to pieces.

passing through Paris. in the afternoon of
the election day, he saw crowd running
and great excitement among the people,

fatally; but he could not obtain names or par

@ Principles are eternal Certain Dem
ocrats in our County, are constantly endeavor-
ing to sustain themselves, by appealing to the
common sense of people. 1t IS sometimes
very difficult to tell where they really are.
They evidently regard a Democratic President
merely as the dispenser of a larger amount Of
patronage; and if he does not grant them the
appointments they desire, they are prepared
to denounce him, although he may have faith
fully carried out the principles of the Consti
tuition, in the administration of the Govern
ment.
Principles are eternal, and consequently
they should be watched with jealous care
Certain politicians believe that the days of
tie democratic party have already been
numbered, and that 1t will be powerless in
the Presidential contest next year This is
great mistake. If the principles which it
upholds are right, they will sustain it, and
sooner or later, secure its success The So
Der second thought Of the people is always
right.
We regret exceedingly the dissensions
which at present exist in the ranks of the par
ty in this County. The democracy here, if
united, are invinclble; but when divided thew
cannot accomplish anything which will re-
d0und to the success of the party. The op-
position party "laugh in their sleeves at
those who have been ''duped'' by them.
Certainly no good can result to the party
from electing Know Nothings to Office. We
cannot gain strength by placing in an infu-
ential position those who are hostile to demo-
cratic principles. If we are determined to
stand by the landmark of the party in this
county We must take a position at once The
only ra!lyine point that we have is the Coun-
ty ticket. Its triumphant election will excite
IN the breasts of us all emotions of pride and
pleasure Ifall or portion of it is defeated
we will feel mortified and be compelled to
confess that Cambria is no longer the Demo
cratic Banner County of Western Pennsylva-
MIA.
We cannot gain anything by elccting
Black Republicans to Office. They are hos
tile to our principles, and always when in
power. use their influence against us. Every
democrat should therefore labor honestly and
zealously for the success of the County and
State ticket. By SO doing they will prove to
the world that they are sincere democrats and
pure patriots. The principles of the Black
Republican Party if carried out in the ad-
ministra.ion of the government, would inevi-
tably lead to the dissolution of the Union.
Seward, the leader of. the Black Republicans
has publicly sand that there is aperpetual war
iare IN this country between the slavehoiding
and on-slaveholding states, and that if sla-
very Is not abolished in Virginia, Maryland

A SINGULAR CAsE-Sometime during last
winter Messrs. Strouse & Dahlman, Horse
dealers of New York City, purchased horse
from Mr.. Robert Williams, of Cambria town
ship. They took the horse and number of
others they had purchased in this vicinity
with them to New York City. Shortly
after arriving there gentleman from Massa-
chusetts examined the horse carefully and
then claimed him as his property He stated
that about two years ago the horse was stolen
from his farm near Boston, and that he had
heard nothing of him from that time until he
accidentally recognized him in the manner we
have stated. Messrs Strouse & Dahlman
refusing to give him the horse, he brought
an action of replevin against them, and they
gave bond for the property One of Che
firm brought the horse to this place last week
and sent for Mr.. Williams He Immediately
identified the horse as the one he had sold a
few months ago. He states that he raised
him. and that he was never out of his pos
session for single day, until he sold him to
the above named firm. The Massachusetts,
gentleman is equally confident that he is the
horse which was stolen from him. The case
is singular one, and as the witnesses all
reside considerable distance from New York.
the losing party will be sadded with pretty
large bill of costs.

HE WASHINGTON MoNuMENT-A Curiou,
Experiment Work being about to be re-
newed on the Washington Monument at
washington, preparations were made last
week for commencing operations. Only one
rope was left by which the top could be reach
ed, but 1T was considered unsafe to ascend
by this lest it should prove to be rotten, and
loss Of life ensue. 1t was therefore necessa-
ry to get a rope across the top. To do this
a man was produced who, standing upon the
ground outside the column, threw stone
over 1t, more than hundred and seventy
feet in height. Having ascertained that he
could perform this feat a small pack of
thread was attached to the stone. but the
resistance OF the air to the thread prevented
his casting the stone more than half the
helghth of the column. Next an Indian
bow and arrows were obtained, but the ar
rows, with thread attached, would not rise
above hundred feet. A rife was next OBJ
tanned, and experiments were made inside
the column by shooting the ramrod, with a
pack OF thread attached upwards, in the hope
that 1t would fall across particular brace.
but sometimes the rod took wrong direction
and at others the thread was burned off by
the powder and this plan failed. At last q
pigeon, with rack of thread attached to its
leg. was started on figGt upwards inside
the column, and by dint of whooping and
shoutingiby the persons below, the bird was
frightened into a continuance of his fight,
and rested on the very brace over which IL
was required to cast the thread. A pistol
was then fired to startle him from his perch
and he luckily descended upon the right side
of the column. The pack thread was caught
a heavier cord was attached and drawn nm
then heavier and stronger cords, until rope
OF sufficient size was secured over the brace
to enable the rigers to proceed with safety to
the work of reftting the machienary in COM
plete order for future operations.
