he wants no Union. Except slavery is
first abolished. No Constitution az it is,
no Union as it was, is his doctrine. "To
all whom it may concern" proves this
beyond doubt. Then they are both
other, and both deserve the halter.
Personally they are not alike at all, the
one is a high toned gentleman, the other
a clown. The one is a statesman and
soldier, the other a coward and paltroon.
There are no two men at the head OF AT

Adjourned Court.

The adjourned court gave out on
Tuesday evening, There were few stran-
gers in town except those that had cases
on the argument list. There were not
many getting naturalized, compared to
the number that formerly came to court
Immediately before an election. None as
heretofore declared their intentions The
reason for that was obvious, those who
are subjects of a foreign prince would pre-
Ter remaining SO, until they can see
whether they have a country that is
worth swearing allegiance to, before they
ahJure their native land. Nor would any
be naturalized, only as they had declared
their intentions, they were in a kind of
embryo state and subject to the draft.
Some few soldiers who served their time
IN the war and were honorabIy discharged
got naturalized as they were entitled to be
under recent act of Congress regardless
OF the time they had been in this country.
Present appearances indicate a great apa-
thy IN the in the Abolition party in this
County on the eve of a Presidential
election.

t. Some of the Republicans about
town, we understand, are endeavoring TO
make capital for BARKER, the Maine Yam
kee candidate for Congress in this district,
because he happened to be one of the
gentlemen who went to Washington last
week, to get justice done the district, in
relation to the draft. 1t Is true Messrs.
ID. w. WOODS, JAMES Mann, and A A
BARKER, were appointed to perform the
pialn duty OF representing the facts TO the
Provost Marshal General-a duty which
any one old enough to talk English was
competent to pertorm-and it is also true
that Gen. Fry, as WAS Ills PLAIN Duly.
upon hearing the facts authorized the
proper corrections TO be made. For doing
this hessrs. w, NJ, and T., of course
are entitled to thanks, just as Messrs G..
W. ELDER and III. j. WALTERS are for
going to Harrisburg and HolIitlaysburg
once or twice on the same business. es-
peclally if they bore the expense of the
trip themselves, as the latter two gentle
men did.
But there is another rumor ahoat which
is not quite SO creditable to Mr. Bar
ker's honesty, though it may be to his
partisan chicanery. 1t is said while at
Washington he availed himself of the
| opportunity TO urge upon the powers there
! the necessity OF quartering a large num-
Der of Republican soldiers in this district,
TO aid him in carrying his election
Whether there is any truth in the rumor
or not, we are not prepared 10 say but

| IN the infamous scheme.
We take the above from the Lewis
town True Democrat. This infamous
scheme of Barker's stands without a par
allel in this region of country. 1t shows
mamtestly TO the people of this County,
what an ignorant clown like him would
do to have the name of being elected to
Congress. Those other two gentlemen, it
appears got their part of the district
changed, but there is no percentage taken
OH Cambria county. That would not suit
Inc election of Mr.. Barker. And what
are the lives of few men in his estima-
non compared to his election? His con-
duct IN this respect is SO patent to every
man that he can't lie himself cut Of it, or
cover up ms tracks. They dlew Cambria
county first, contrary to all their former
acts and had man serving the notices
before they were scarcely done drawing,
IoF The mere purpose of securing Bar
h'r 5 election So this is virtually Bar
kers draft, 50 far as Cambria county is
concerned, Nor did it require any smart
ness TO DO this, if it did Barker would be
100 stupid to do it. 1t required nothing
out bold rascality, and that he is an adept
