We sometime ago suggested the pro-

meetings. We now not only renew the
suggestion, but urge upon the Democracy,
the necessity of at once organizing and Of
forming themselves into clubs. Ii is 10
the Democratic party alone that we must
look for hope; and i. IS by promulgating
its fundamental principles of truth. oniy,
that we can restore peace and prosperity
to Our distracted country The Aboli-
tionists, the enemies of the Constitution,
are everywhere forming themselves into
sworn "leagues" for the purpose of re-
tanning by armed force tie power which
they now so Ecentiously abuse. Demo
Gratis, it is from deep sense of duty AID
actuated from the purest motives, that we
urge you to action. IF you take a serious
look at the present, compared with the
past, you cannot fail to see that the great
blessings OF Constitutional liberty and the
peculiar privileges cf g republican govern
ment, the sacred eeqaest Of our fathers,
are fast drifting from our reach; and thai
the Abolition party, whose ensign Is, VI

We were present at large and enthu-
siastic meeting, Oh last Friday evening,
held in Mr.. Kohier's Hall, by the Demo-
Gratis and conservative citizens os Johns
town which was seyerallv addressed. by
Messrs- Potts, Barnes, Mccormick and
Shannon. y spirit of fea-lessress and
ou.-spoken manliness pervaded the whole
meeting; and the honest Democratic senti-
ments OF the people were freely and
frankly expressed. We were glad to find
so many 9: copperheads in Johnstown,
and were no less grat:fed at the deter7ni-
nation manifested, without q dissenting
voice, to resist the encroachments of Abe
lition power The people of Johr.stown
and vicinity, were foremost in supporting
the Administration; while they believed
them to Be honest. They gave their
sons to the battle. and gave voluntarily
and without stint from their pockets, till
to-day, by the deception and imbecility
of a corrupt Administration, there is
scarcely a family within the precincts OF
the city or in its adjoining reighborhoods,
thai is not mantied in TIE sable habili-
men.s of mourning. u is high time that
the people of Johnstown, and of Cambria
county, every district of which has felt
the sad consequences of Abolition rule, to
begin to view with alarm tie lawless
usurpations of wicked party. 1t is
high time tie outraged people Of this Com
rnonwealth would, not only ask whittier
are we tending? but that they would de-
nand rigid account from the destroyers
of American liberty. We commend the
forward step which the people of Johns
town hare taken, and we sincerely hope,

with heavy storm of hail and snow,

This strange phencr,enon, 90 rare at this
season, las given rise to a great many
mystic signs and marvellous predictions by
the wise ones of our neigh5orhood But
having little belief in the prophets of the
present day, and relying upon the Old
adage, which says "'all signs fail in dry
weather." we are disposed to think that
nothing serious will happen; and that the
earth will move on as usual.

nations Of blood obtained from children
affected with the alarming disease, Dip
liberia, it seems to be disease O. the

the throat, and, to be caused By q want
of the preserving clement, common salt
This result was obtained from examining
the blood Of several persons suffering
from dipthcr!a, and in each case, less
quantity Of common salt was found than
belongs in healthy blood, aud upon inves
tigation it has been found that in thirty
families in which dip:hera has prevailed,
or is now prevailing, food containing but
little salt had been used for some time pre-
yious to the attack Of the disease, am in
formed by an NJ D., who has given much
attention to this subject, tina. multitude
of facts could be arrayed to suhstantiate
this theory, but it belongs not to the pen
of a lady to array them-my object is to
stimulate investigation in regard to this
dreadful disease, diptheria. and to call
the attention of parents and guardians Of
children TO a consideration of the diet
provided for the nourishment Of the little
ones as well as others Of their respective
