Letter from HazIeton.

HAzLBToN, Sept. 25th, 1860.
EDITOR JOURNAL Seeing reports from
all parts of this District but ours, is my ex-
cuse for taxing the patience of your readers.
We wish them to know that we, the White
River Indians" have some politics up
here-some feeling and preference as to
who shall rule the destinies of our nation
for the next four years to come. In 1856,
if I am correctly informed, Fremont got
three votes IN this white River) township.
On the 9TH day of next November we intend
to roll up seventy votes for the honest Rail-
Maker of Illinois; and the "Dimycrstic "
standard bearer of the "Gibralter Deestrick
had better look well to his laurels; they
may be torn from his brow, for the changes
that have taken place here, and the changes
going on elsewhere, may be the means of
planting the Republican banner on the al
most impregnable fortress, instead OF the old
rag which has disgraced it so long.
But you want news. Well, really, We
don't have much Of the strange and start
ling UP here 1t has been so long since
those prominent Democrats-the one from
Knox, the other from this vicinity--had their
bout at fisticuff, that it woud be Jackson's
news to tell you Of that. l only mention
it to illustrate the harmony that exists IN
the glorious old party.
-FOUR correspondent then goes on to give
a very interesting account OF Douglas
hickory pole, that we haven't room to print
entire. In short, the pole was weak III the
back like the party, and bad to be shortened
40 feet before it would stand straight
Just like the Douglas party in October, only
even after the 9th that party won't stand
straight. Our friend suggests that the pole
ought to have been of slippery elm.-ED-

81 The German meeting or Saturday
night at Mozart Hall had large attend
ance. The large hall was literally crowded
Those present were addressed in exceedingly
eloquent terms, in the German language,
by Mr. J. P. Hatterscheidt of Kansas. His
hearers were delighted with bis speech. Mr.
E. Bischof followed in one of his speeches
which are always full of sound sense and
correct views. A most effectuaI work is
going on amongst the Germans in favor of
Republican principles, the result of which
will be seen and felt by the Democracy
in November.

Ho FOR VINCENNEs.-The Republicans

intendent of the E. s C. R. R. has proposed
a very liberal arrangement for carrying

be accepted. The cost of going will be very
light, and We hope q big crowd will GO

so will get the worth of their money. Now
for big crowd. Let all go who possibly

They were addressed by the Bishop. You

holy work. 1t is not enough to feel a de-
sire for public speaking. He enforced on
their minds the necessity of attend
ing to the pastoral work. Prepare for
this as for the pulpit. If you have no will
Iingness for this department, consider
whether you are at all called to the work
of the ministry. The ishop related the
case of young man, who by one immor-

The Big DemonstratIon al VInesnnes


The whole-souled and wide-awake Re-
publcans of old Knox are getting up
grand demonstration and basket barbecue,
to take place at Yincennes on Friday, Octo-
Der 9th. Invitations have been extended to
"a number of eminent orators, and no doubt
plenty of the best speakers in the West will
favor the occasion with their presence.
The gallant Illinois Republicans will DO
there by thousands to rejoice with the Re-
publicans of Indiana over the brilliant
prospects ahead. The " Pocket" of Hoo
sierdom and the "Egypt" of Suckerdom
will join hands for a 4" long pull and strong
pull and a pull altogether to redeem their
sections of the two States from the blight
ing effects of Ionoe,oois~- Ul-o OCCASION
will be one to make the heart of every lover
of free men, free homes, free territories, free
speech, and a free press to rejoice, and the
"powers of darkness" on every hand to
turn pale with fear, and shake in their
shoes from terror.
The latch-string will be hung out on the
outside, and the Evansville boys, especially,
are invited to go up to the "Old Post" and
make themselves at home. An eating house
has been chartered, and the inner and outer
man will be well cared for.
The fare will be reduced on the Railroad,
and arrangements will be made to run an
excursion train at such hours as best TO
accommodate those who desire to go.
The Vincennes Wide Awakes came down
70 the Corwin gathering, and We hope our
Wide Awakes will return the visit. There
will be no lack of fun, and there will be on
the occasion good time generally. Let us
all go up and see the sights, and take by
the hand the gallant Wide Awakes of the
upper country.

Horse Po,cer as. Steam.-A careful OBJ
server and practical machinist. Invited our
attention to the Horse Power Equalizer"
which was used in running the threshlng
machine which took the premium at our
late county Fair. in competition with ma
chimes which were run by steam. The
Equalizer is evidently great benefit to all
horse powers. 1t equsllzes the draft-ren-
ders the motion steady and strong, upon
uneven ground. aud is by no means liable
to get out of repair. 1t also etfectually pre-
vents skittish teams from breaking the
power machine. as one steady team will al
ways keep the rest in motion. The driver
is enabled to regulate the speed as perfectly
as 1t can be done with an engine. Those
who use it speak lii confident terms of their
ability to compete with portable engines.
and taking the amount of capital required
in using engines we are inclined to believe
their statements are correct. We know that
the power used by the premium thrashing
machine, received the commentators of a
great many visitors at our Fair. For any
desired information in regard to the Equa-
lizer. address ''Hely's Equalizer Company
