Letter from Elk County.
RFDGMAT. s,

RfDGwAT, Sept. %, 1865.
FRIEND Row Our usually quiet little
town was the scene of considerable excite
ment IN the latter part Of the past week,
the cause for which was two-fold. The first
grew out of the re-assembling of the Demo
cratic County Convention, on Friday, and
the appearance thereat of one D. W. Daniel
Of Clearfeld, whose mission was, If possible.
to induce the Democracy of Elk to ratify
the nomination of Doctor Thomas Jefferson
Boyer for the Assembly. But unlike the
experience of Daniel of old, tie mouths of
me lions were not stopped, and this modern
PANEL was glad to make good his escape.
Pale, trembling, and chop-faIlen, he retreat
ed IN the direction of Centreville, and has
not been heard Of since If he should hap
len to make his appearance about your
Town; please let Us know. The Democracy
Of Elk IN the meantime stood out firmly for
thelr rights and confirmed the nomination
Of Dr. 7. Il: Early, who they expect to elect
tdTlumphantly on the second Tuesday of
October.
On Saturday evening excitement No. ?
took PLACE. Shortly after dark, stunning
report of artillery broke upon the stiffness
ol the night, and was soon succeeded by
another; Everybody wanted to know what's

f4Faey was acknowledged; some thought old

While our brave boys were at the front,
facing the enemy in the field, they also had
foe harrassing them in the rear Having
gloriously fiogged the enemy that faced them,
it would hardly be creditable to surrender
to the guerrilas who were picking them off
in the rear, and yet the bushwhakers actu-
ally expect to capture them at the polls.
