ME. EDIToR-Tho third annual message
of Abraham Lincoln have carefully read
and find it particularly wanting in three
respects, viz: truth, common sense and
good grammar. The elevation Of the ne
gro for the degredaiion and sacrifice of
the white man, appears to be the only
comprehensive idea that the message
contains. certainly did not look from
the President impossibillies, and there
fore am not disappointed, for how can
clean thing come forth from the unclean.
The Republicans of Earthaus township,
10 mako amends for their small vote at
the Presidential election, arc going it loud
here in their secret order. Certain Demo
Gratis of the township whom they call DIS
loyal are to be watched, and by them de-
rounced as traitors. DRAFTED Democrats,
who failed 10 report ere to be tracked,
spieG out and information given OF their
whereabouts. The postal route 10 Salt
Lick is to be stopped at point above -
trade and dealing to be regulated and
confined among themselves, and for the
| purpose they have already started smith
shop; roads are to lie altered and made
at their pleasure, where they will be det-
rimentsl to Democrats, which has in one
instance been attended to. They have
various other matters il contemplation 10

they term them, because, thev say 'h"''

The Union League organization
here, in this township took place short
time previous to the late election, in the
silence of midnight darkness when, as
they thought no Democratic eye could
see them. AT the organization they were
assisted by some of the loyal league breth
rem of Burnside township, Centre coanty
who were seen sneakirg home in the
dead hour of the night, os if they were
guilty of rapine and murder. On the oc
! casion they had close at hand, believe
the Methodist Melchsadecl of Karthau

praying. They have met regularly ono,
and twice in the week at their room, fur
