II EEP UP THE EXCITEMENT.-R

IN movals always cause excitement, and since
the great excitement about the removal of the
Court House has subsidized, the community gener-
ally have become somewhat excited upon hearing
that Charly Watson has determined to pull up
stakes and remove to Virginia. But the latest
cause of excitement is the fact that have remov-
ed my Sadder Shop from my old stand opposite
the Court House to my new shop on Market street,
nearly opposite the Jail, where all who may favor
me with call can be supplied with Saddles SIN
gle Harness, Double Harness, Tug Harness. Bri-
dies, Collars, Whips, Haiters. Housings, Brsech-
bands Side Straps. and in fact every article in the
line of Saddling and Harness making. Thankful
for the very liberal patronage heretofore bestowed
L solicit a continuance of the same and call from
as many new customers can make it suit

Last Wednesday, one OF the largest political
meetings ever convened in Harrisburg was
held by the friends of the Republican can
didates. Over 25, 900 were assembled. Judge
Dock, an old and constant Democrat, and an
uncle of U. S. Senator Bigler, acted as Pres
ldent. He said the choice for the Presidency
was now narrowed down to the election of
Abraham Lincoln by the people, or the haz-
ard OF an election in the House or Senate,
and he could not hesitate any longer to sup
port Lincoln. Hon. Frank Blair made most
eloquent and telling speech. At the same
time Brant's large hall was crowded with Ger
mans, where Carl Shurz spoke for nearly two
hours. c. A. Snyder, Esq, presided and sew
eraipromincnt democrats were officers. There
was very large torch light procession of
Wide-Awakes on horseback and on foot From
the present indications old Dauphin will give
Curtin from 500 to 1000 majority.
