How Nance are Got TO the Bogus
HI Te,,T, Gail. ~.s ~ l5 ~,


We have received the following letter, which
explains ITSELF Such conduct on the part Of ths
Republicans, who are engaged in buryiug theil
party, is very reprehensible. Can't they ever
put under ground their misbegotten and mis-
guided organization, without such resort to
deception and fraud as is indicated by this CON-
municationf y.
One thing will appear by this and similar
exposures: that true Democrats and patriots
will, sooner or later, 6nd that the only way TO
preserve their country is to preserve their party
Without the complete and f,al determination
of all sectionalism, there is no hope. 'A

BY ROBT. J. CULyERwELL, N. D.,
The important fact that the awful consc-
quences of self-abuse may be eflectually cured
without internal medicines or the dangerous
applications of caustics, instruments, medica-
ted 5ougies, and other empirical deyises, is
here clearly demonstrated, and the entirely
NV and highly successful treatment, as adop-
ted by the celebrated author fully explained,
by means of which every one is enabled to
cure himself perfectly, and at the least posi-
bic cost, thereby avoiding all the advertised
noStrums Of the day. This lecture will prove
Il boon to thousands and thousands.

Chester county Phoenix says that the Chinese
Sugar Cane has been successfully cultivated
this year by many farmers in the western part
Of Chester county. The crop is quite abun-
dant and Mr.. CLOUD, near Cochranviile, has
8 mill that Is runaing day and night in the
manufacture of molasses by steam power
The apprehension that sugar would be dear
induced the farmers to go extensively into the
cultivation of the Sorghum. The same paper
iI also informed in Upper Oxford township,
Chester county, mill has been erected fol
the manufacture of Sorghum molasses, which
is now grinding sufficient cane to make from
ssventy-fve to one hundred gallons per day.
The charge for grinding the cane and making
it are, under fifty gallons, fifteen cents pei
gallon; for fifty gallons or over, twelve and q
half cents per gallon. Thus it appears that
molasses may in time become one of the sta
pie products of the Keystone State. Would
it not be well for our farmers to pay particu-
lar attention to the fact of its being possible
to raise their own molaSses and perhaps have
some for market where the ground happens to
be adapted to its culture. Since secession
has taken such a strong hold upon our friends
In the South, who have been in the habit Of
supplying us with this necessity, it might be
well for those North to act upon this fact and
hereafter be even more independent than for
msrly. Let the people of Potter try this the
next year, and see whether this climate fayors

brilliant lecture on the religion, customs and
people of Brazil. Seldom have we relished
anything more than the picture he laid before
his audience Of that exuberant garden of the
tropics laden with its strange variety of fruits
and flowers, TEEN ng with perpetual harvest
for the hand Of man. Surely that country
must be the garden of the world, and if its
people had the enterprise which moves this
Yankee nation, Imagination could not set a
bound to the results they would produce there.

re%s APPOINTED. - Hinton Rowan

Helper. the author of the 'Impendcng Crisis,
has been appointed Consul to Buenos Ayres,
and will leave in few days for his post of
duty" This announcement so seemingly en-
important is yet fraught with something OF
more vital interest than the niefe appointing
of some man to a Consulate: II is but few
short years ago that men holding the views
on National subjects that Mr.. Helper does,
were not oriy thought cunsiitutionally unfit
for any utice, but were considered amenable
to the law as preachers Of treason, and the
feeling against them was almost as bitter as
against the supposed witches of Massachu'
sets. And to-day We consider it an evidence
of more healthy and liberal state of feeling
in the whole country when a Chief Magistrate
appoints, and with few dissenting voices, one
of the first advocates of the principles that a
few years ago cons .gned Lovejoy to his grave
and printing press to the waters ofthe Ohio.
But such are the steps that Liberty is taking
and such the land. marks she so proudly
plants along her path. The days of witch
burning and the days when the anti-slavery
men of the country could not open their
mouths for fear of the hemp, are past never
more to return.

ANOTHER LEADING DEMOCRAT SPEAKs.-
Benjamin F. Hallet, of Massachusetts, who
has written about every Democratic Platform
that has been adopted by the Democratic
National Conventions for twenty years past,
has just written letter full of the most lofty
patriotism, placing the writer squarely on
the noble platform of Dickinson, Butler, Dix,
and other great lights of the party. Mr.. Hal
let plainly says:-"The simple issue is the
overthrow or the support of the Government
Of this whole Union." That is the whole
story, and until "the re-establishment of the
supreme Government of the Union in all the
States and Territories" is effected, " or it is
fully demonstrated that cannot be done by
force Of arms, belong to no party but ths
country"
