SOMETHING FOR THE PooR MAH.-A
man naturally seeks for an article which
will be of the greatest service. This
seems to apply to medical remedies as
we'll as to articles of wear. When We
have an attack of the rheumatism, sore
throat, pain in the stomach or chest, OF
any Of the thousand .and-one ills which
human flesh is heir to, we at once lool
around for some kind of relief. Bear in
mind that Lamberson's Poor Mans Nerve

~ SVRRcfntd0 SOuCeFns
The Appletons, Book Publishers OF New
York, have immense sums due them from
their Southern customers.
In order, it would seem, to maint tain
their right to collect them under the Con-
federate usurpation, they hold themselves
out as Secessionists. And although liv-
ing and doing business in New York.
they stand forth as the advocates and ex-
ponents Of the rights of the Confederacy.
In their Annual Cyclopedia for 1869.
they recognize the traitor oligarchy Of
the South as rightful independent sove-
reignty, and brag of its principles, its
power, and resources, aud in the same
work they misrepresent and viIlify the
course and conduct Of our Government id
style which leaves nothing upon which
the London Times or the Richmond Ex.
aminer could improve.
Let the loyal people Of the North put
the stamp of condemnation upon all books
published by the Appletons, and leave
them to find customers for their wares
amongst the traitors whose cause they
have eepoused.

0utspuhen at Last.

We know no respectable religious news
paper in the Loyal States, that has said so
little about the Civil War now raging, as
the Messenger of the German Reformed
church, issued at Chambersburg, IA.
Since the second invasion Of Pennsy lvanis,
however, the editors Of tba, paper
have exposed the robberies ard bru-
tal'ies of that army, partially restrained
by their officers: and in their last No. is
q clear condemnation Of the Rebellion, as
we will show by two extracts. The cause
for which the insurgents are striving, is
not ye. advanced to. Bur, as far as it
goes, the Messenger truly says,
"Fa.emost among aboundiuy iniIni'y,
mus, We place the Rebellion itself. This
ia the great inignity of the times 10 this
country, because it is deliberate attempt
to set aside the divine authority Of the
civil government, and thus it is a rebellion
men,. With the masses of the South it is
doubtless, to a large extent, the result OF
ignorance and excitement, but with the
leaders it has been a crime of cool cs!cu
lstion. The immense suffering which they
have brought upon themselves, as we'll as
upon the whole land, has shown that the
authority Of civil goverument is no:
thing TO be resisted without incugring the
penalties pronounced against all such
otf.nders in Gods word: They that
resist shall receive to themselves damna.
ton Let Churches take warning. The
war, on the part Of the Government. is q
necessity. We must maintain the laws,
even with life and treasure. But LET meu

treasure, they lose not also their sous"

We judge from the returns that 700 or
500 voters participated in the FIRST trial Of
selection, by a direct ballot, of candidates
by the friends Of the Administration 10
our sister county. There was no chance
TO complain of the "chea's and bargains
of Delegates" for there were none. The
following, having the highest number of
votes, we're duly nominated:
Senator-Pe,er Badly, Jr, Danville.
Assembly hly-Samuei Ailemaa, Middle leburg.
Sherlii-Moses Spech., Beaver'own.
Assoc, Juage-Daniel Wilmer, Chapman.
Commissioner-Jos Wenrich, Selinsgrove.
Treasurer-Henry Schoch, Middlecreek.
Audi,ors-John ". Brown, Freeburg, 8 y
Dauel Diefenbacb, Penns, l y
No opposition to Judge Wilmer, SuhOch,
Brown, or Diefenba
Baldy is capital selection. The men
for county offices, are strong, respectable
citizens, distributed over every section.
and so we'll pleased aud wide awake are
the loyal people, that they intend to try
and give them little extra majority.

TO be Remembered

When the Wood ward Convection was

democratic editors at the same time-the
Rebels were ravagins almost within their
sight. Yet neither body referred TO them
in their proceedings 10 any manner. Ga
the contrary, nany if not most of the
"GemooraIs" mingled among the Volun-
teers VINO were rushing to the rescue, and
discouraged them, by saying "it was one
Of granny Curtiu's scares--l speculation
Of Slifer and the Harrisburg sharpers-a
nine days wonder Confedera'es pay

this manner did scoundrelly Copperheads

returned home, dsatf.eting others as they
went. Were not those Copperheads vii.
ling and waiting for the enemy?
Now look at the course of the Republi.
cans and Uuion Democrats. They spread
the alarm as fast and as far as they could;
t.ey uJjpurned the State Conrention ; they
postponed all party action as long as an
insoleut foe trod our free soil and 4 out
of 5 who volunteered were friends Of the
administration.
Which party is safest?
