WASHINGTON, Wednesday, n

ETC.
WASHINGTON, Wednesday, Nov. %.
As the time approaches for the meeting of
Congress, the excitement becomes intensified
here, and serious apprehensions are expressed
as to what may be the result of the first weeks
session. One rash expression may be the
torch to ignite the magazine. Several mem
bers of Congress have arrived to-day, and they
all agree as to the imminent dangers which
surround them. A Western member fixes
three weeks as the limits Of the secession,
while Hon. Henry winter Davis, one OF the
most independent members of the body, ex-
presses the hope that something may be done
to save the country.
Gen Clark, of Missouri, openly announces
that his state will stand alcof from either a
Northern or a Southern Confederacy, and if
necessary will organize a separate government.
Several letters received to day from leading
men in Virginia state that the secession feeling
has so. increased within the past ten days that
the people are but little behind South Carolina.
An editorial leader in the Kentucky States
man Mr.. Breckinridge's organ appealing to the
conservative elements of the South, is known
here to have been written by Mr.. B.. himself.
The appeal may be too late.
The Cabinet had an extra session to-day, in
which for the first time there was anything
like a general discussion of the Southern ques-
ton. Secretary Cobb was expected to be
present, but was still too unwell to attend
The meeting was entirely harmonious, as am
reliably informed, although there were differ
ences of opinion on the subject of secession.
The manner in which it is presented in the
Message is wholly unobjectionable to any mem
Der Of the Cabinet.
Tie fact of Gen. Scctt's being telegraphed
for has Go significance whatever. The Secre-
tary of War completes his annual report to-
morrow, and only desiresthe Generals opin-
len on some. proposed army reforms to be re
commended to Congress. a

Our advice, to all who are in any way troubled
with Erysipelas, Canker, Salt Rheum, Scrofula, or
other forms of humor, is to use DIR. S. A. Wcaver's
justly celebrated and never failing remedies for
these complaints. We have no doubt that at least
half the chronic complaints in existence have their
origin in some form of humor, which only needs to
be eradicated from the system, to save them from
an untimely grave. We are glad that DR., Weaver
has turned his attention to this class of diseases.

To THE EDITOR OF THE ALLECHANIAN:-
We see by the Jolnstowu Tribune Of the 2Oih
inst, that J: mes Potts Esq, has got h.s
hobby horse, for the purpose OF trying to ride
into the legislature. He has been training b. IA
for many days, and now pats him on the Le,h
and says, now my pony Is the time go il, for
there are three of US (brethren) on the road
trying the race, bat have the advantage over
them both, for they VIII only get Of the par
y each. and not that in this end OF the county,
tor viii get them and the Republicans here
in the bargain, for they are nervous to have
JUhnst0wn for county seat. .jor Potts #p-
pears TO be very modest, rs il ii Was 1T the C.
sire of the people, that he comes out : caI.-
didatc, but the truth of il is that he himself
suggested it to til, III first some months past.
He comes out with very O!ly mouth, to the
people of Jefferson, viz: ''uTOn the distinctive
ground CT the removal of the county seat lrom
Ebensburg TO II convenient point, to suit the
just rights of the people of the county, or 4
division OF the county tor that purpose" But
his object, in truth, Is 20 have ii new county
struck OF. so that JohnstOwu will be its cOUn-
" scat. lie and thosa sigEcrs III the Tribune
are not working for the good OF the people, a.
they pretend, but III realty, i: is their own
interest, and not the peoples, that they are
seeking, fer every sensible man knows that
Cambria is nearly the smallest county in the
State, and that EbeusbUrg Is in the center OF
the county, and has good roads leading to it

The County Ticket.

It affords US much pleasure to be able to
state that the prospects for the election of
our whole county Ticket are excellent -
From every quarter the news is cheering.
There seems to be general disposition
among the members Of our party, who had
preferences for others than those norlina-
ted, to lay them aside, and yield cheerfulIy
to the opinion Of the delegates as expressed
in our County Convention. Some were of
course disappointed at the result Of the
nominations, yet we believe all will con-
cede that, on the whole, the selections
were as judicious as could have been made.
The nominees. We hesitate not to say, are
all we'll tried and well known friends of
our cause; and as such they are entitled to,
and will receive, the cordial and hearty
support of every true friend Of the People S
Party. Let cur friends ncw 20 to work in
earnest, not trusting too much to the pop
ularity of our nominees, or the strength of
our cause. Organize thoroughly III every
borough and township, and work Tor the
ticket until tie second tuesday in Ccto-
Der, when victory will perch upon all our
candidates.
