r. OSE OF THE HUMANITARIAN MOVE
MENTs OF ouR TINES, although little known
as such, can hardly be over-estimated in
its importance upon the well being of our
widely scattered communities. The pop
ulation of the American States is in
many sections so sparse. that ski!lful ply
sicians are hardly available to them.
Vast numbers Of our people. are obliged
to employ in sickness. such medical relief
IS they can hear Of from each other, or
indeed any they can get from any quar-.
ter. Hence arises the great consumption
Of medicines among us, greater by far
than in any of the old countries, where
skillful physicians are accessible to all
clases. Unpriucipled men have long
svailed themselves of this necessity, to
palm of their worthless nostrums, until
the word has become synonymous with
imposition and cheat. One of our lead
ing Chemists in the East, DR.. AVER, is
pursuing q course which defeats this in
iquity. He brings not only his own, but
the best skill of our times to bear for the
production of the best remedies which
can be made. These are supplied to the
world, in . convenient form, at low pri-
ces, and the people will no more buy
poor medicines instead Of good, at the
same cost, than they win bran instead of
Hour. The inevitable consequence of this
is that the vile compounds that food our
country are discarded for those which
honestly accomplish thej end in view
which cure. Do we over. estimate its
in believing that this prospect
Of supplanting the by-word medicines.
with those of actual worth and virtue, is
Fraught with immense consequence for
good to the masses Of our people?-Ga-

Of the 25 Republicans twenty of them
held over from last year. Nothing but
this fact prevented both branches of the
Legislature being Democratic.
Speaking of the election, the Harris
burgh Union says, the result is most graft
flying and cheering to the Democratic
party. 1t shows that Democracy is still
living principal, dear to the hearts of the
people. and in spite of defeat and disas-
ters. that would have crushed any other
political organization TO the earth, its in
herent vitality has enabled it to raise tri-
umphaut flem the dust Of defeat. The
blow which it has struck is encouraging g
to its friends, and confounding to its enc
mics: and before another year rolls around
1t is destined to control the politics of this
Common wealth, and to sweep It's mongrel
opponents into deserved oblivion.
The Democratic party has arisen from
the dust of humiliation at the very time
when they supposed that it was least to be
feared. Without patronage. without or
ganization, accused by its enemies Of en-
tertaIning secession and reasonable senti-
nents; its leaders denounced and divided
Its printing Offices destroyed. its success
bewailed, as calculated to weaken the
Government and to encourage the rebels,
in spite of these adverse circum stances
and these torrents of columny, the old
patriotic Union Democratic party has
achieved great victory and colfounded
its slanderers.
Perhaps the strongest indication Of
popular feeling, and of The power Of self
vincication which the Democracy retain,
is case which the Harrisburgh paper
cites. A short time ago the Office of the
Easton Sentinel was destroyed by an en-
tagged rabble The alleged motive for this
disgraceful act of violenc, was, that the
Democratic Convention Of Northampton
County had passed resolutions which did
not come up TO the prevailing standard OF
Black Republican orthodoxy. and tha,
these resolutions were published in the
Sentinel. The Convention also nominated
Col. Neiman, editor Of the Sentinel, for the
Legislature. The people of Northampton
County have placed their stamp of repro
baton upon mob violence. by electipg the
whole Democratic ticket by majority OF
over 300. Col Neiman comes 10 the
