OPPOSES BUCHANAN.

We learn from the Chester Republican that
Mr.. Doughe.ty, one of Mr.. Buchauan's warm
est supporters during the Presidential campaign,
has turned agnlus. the President. That paper
remarks: "hlany of our readers il this Boz
rough, AID elsewhere in our county, will recol.
lect the capital speeches made By Daniel
Doughersy, Esq 10 the Buchanan campaign.
They will also recollec, the excitement he Gre
ated in the Democratic ranks, and the vast num-
bers who rallied to hear the eloquence which
fsll from his lips in advocacy of the claims of
the present Chief Magistrate. 1t is fair to say
that he did good service in the cause, and that
his exertions, here and elsewhere, contributed
no little to the success of the party to which he
was attached. Since then he has been making
another speech, little different, it is true, from
those with which he entertained his hearers du-
ring the campaign to which we have reference,
but none the less interesting on that account.
AT the reception of Hon. Stephen A. Douglas,
IN Philadelphia, on Monday night last, he was
called for, and, in The course of his remarks,
in reference to Mr.. Buchanan's abandonment
of the principles upon which he was elected, be
said
"Aye, we who made this man President.
whose unpopular name would have rotted in
the dust from whence il sprung, and moulder.

[Six chaers.l
The language is not very complimentary 10
the Chief Magistrate, but it will do, coming
from one of his former advocates"

Joseph NJ. Church, one of the American
members Of tho Legislature from Philadephia,
was most lratally assailed on Friday last, in
Harrisburg, BY bog-irotter, named Donovan,
who has been claiming bis scat. Not content
with being rejected by the people of the dis
trict in which he lived, he follows the gentle
man of their choice TO the Capital, and there
challenges him 10 duel, and upon the return
OF the challenge. with note expressing con-
tempt for its author, he assails Mr.. Church on
his way from the Capitol with shilialah and
horse whip. And upon his arrest, pistol and
billy were found upon bis person. The House
very properly passed resolution denying the
Irish ruf6an the usual privileges, and excluding
him from the floor.

Pitching In.

The Chicago Times, the Douglas organ of IL
lnois, has opsned its batteries upon Mr.. Buch-
anan in o terrible manner, since the reelection
OF Douglas to the Senate. The following pas
sages will show the style in which Mr. BIS grey
hairs are ccmbed by the terrible journalisi:
"Two years have nearly elapsed since Mr.
Buchanan commenced bis administration, and
these have been two years of deep modification
and disaster to the Democratic party. He has
sdevoted entire year of it to the destru uction
OF the Democracy of Illinois and that Democ-
racy to-day are stronger than they could possi-
bly, have been had lie been their leader. He
has been defeated BY the Republicans wherever
he has endeavored to elect bis own friends, and
has been defeated by the Democracy wherever
he has sought to elect Republicans. 1t is cause
for rejoicing to know that no man who, in Con-
greSs, refused to abandon the Democratic plat
form at MIR. BIS command, has been defeated
by the people, and, while we regret the eieva-
ton of d Republican majority in Congress, we
cannot mourn over the defeat of those who
abandoned principle in order to crafty the
maligu counsels of vindictiye cabal Of Pres;
Dental aspirahts.
"Ne know that Sir. Buchanan is advanced
in years; we know that be has held Office during
long period, We know that bis head has been
silYered over bJ the hand Of time, bu, what vas
said of another is not the less true of him, that
the man "who, after having seen the consequence
es of thousand errcrs, continues still to bluud-
er, and whose age has only added obstinacy to
stupidity, is surely the object of either abhor-
renee or contempt"

BROADTOP.

10 another column we publish statistical
table, prepared for US, BY John Fulton, ESQ.,,
Civil and Mining Engineer of the Broadtop
Rail Road Company, who has also been en-
ployed to survey the route for Rail Road
from Hopewell to Bedford. We take the lib
erty of inserting the following extract from
Mr.. Fulton's letter accompanying the state
ment
s'The increase of the coal shipments of 1858
over that Of 1857 is 27, 900 tons; the demand,
believe, has increased in larger ratio. The
number of miners ut work in 1857 was 161-
now there are 261, with house capacity for $50.
Several new openings are being made, and ex-
teDsiye improvements constructed for the busi-
ness of this year. Price of coal at Hunting
don, so 10 $3.50 per ton.
'sAl the mines in this region are worked by
drifts above water level, thus discharging the
water opened by working; there has not been
observed up to this any generation Of deleteri-
Gus gasses, and accidents to miners are of very
rare occurrence. The steady increase of the
shipments Of coal from this region during the
past year is the best testimonial that cap be
presented, as to its very superior quality and
adaptability to .he various nses in steam gen.
Grating, and other purposes to which i. has been
applied"

The suggestions made by Mr.. Buchanan, in
his last message, relative TO annexing Cuba to
the United States, fall stillborn We hope
that the American people are getting proper
regard for those who would seduce them into
fillibustering by appealing to their cup,dity.-
Instead of enlisling the national appetite for
addition to our territory, let men in position
cultivate love OF country and regard for
national honor We don't want to appear before
the world as nation of robbers and pirates,
as we should were we to follow the teachings
of Bucbanan's Ostend manifesto and the prae-
tice of his southern slave trading friends
May it not be hoped, that the nation is taking
g sober second though on these matters, and
that we are returning to first principles, when
na,ionat honor and patriotism were the glow
ing sentiments Of the American hear.

disturbed the harmony of the party by refer
ring to the Kansas question. They seem to
forget that the President has been disturbing
that harmony by prescribing every Democrat
who would not bow down to his despotic no.
tions relative to Kansas. Gov. Packer is not
willing to wear the chains of master, aud

Col. A. K. Mcclure of the House of Rep
resentative at Harrisburg, has our thanks fol
various favors.

The hight of impudence has been reached.
Gov. Stewart has issued requisitiou on Gov.
Medary, of Kansas, for Capt. Montgomery,
who is accused of certain unlawful habits,
among others, taking the lives OF Border Ruff
fans and taking possession of their property.
1t is quite proper that violations of the law
should be punished. 1t is essential to the peace
Of the Border that murderers should be punish
ed. 1t has, however, been the custom of e'the
authorities to reward with the patronage Of
the general government those who have dis
tinguished themselves as murderers in the his
tory of Kansas. ONLY now, when ,hero is
reason 10 believe that a number of pro-slavery
partsans have been killed by those who assume
to be doing the ighing of the Free State cause.
has there been any symptoms Of IN active de-
sire in cffcial circles 10 brlng the red-handed
men to justice. This time, the Governor of
Missouri is greatly exercised. And the Gov
ernor of Kansas displays a fatal facility FOR
deepening the difficulty and making the old
sore incurable. He is anxious for troops to
put down the rebellion. The people of Kan
SIS, are, however, quite tired of displays OF
military force among them. They loashe the
spectacle of company Of dragons acting as
illustrations OF the beauties Of the Admins
tration's system of popular sovereignty. II
the hordes Of rufians from Southern Missouri
invade the neighborng portions of Kansas, aud
Gov. Medary makes demonstration with dfa-
goons, it is probable that the bloodiest picture
in the book Of Kansas is yet to be written

ANOTHER BRlTIsH OUTRAGE.-lusults to the
American flag by Euglish officials follow one
smother so rapidly that they begin to be regard
ed as common place affairs, scarcely worthy of
comment. Nothing caG be more plain than
that the English Ministry holds the American
Government in utter contempt knowing that
while the Loco Foco party is in power here.
nothing will be done to resent any indixnity
which may be put upon u.s.
We hope that the organs of the Admiuistra-
ton will no longer pretend to feel indignation
when they record an English insult TO the
American flag, for there is no longer any one
stupid enough to be humbugged by their blus-
ter.-Daily .News.

THE LEGlSLATuRE.

The Legislature has as yet been doing very
little of general character. we notice noth-
ing Of interest to Bedford county among the
proceedings. Mr.. Schell has introduced bill
into the Senate, prohibiting the issue, BY the
banks, of notes of less denomination than
twenty dollars. The evident object of this bill
is political buncomb. The result of the pas
sage of such an act would be that cur State
would be flooded with the worthless trash of
other States, and not as the Gazette thinks, an
increased circulation of gold aud silver. We
nre glad TO record the fact that our rep
resen.atiyes, Williams aui Walker, have in
every instance in which ,he question has come
up. voted in favor Of reducing the pay to
$500.
