THE WHOLE TRUTH IN APARAGRAPH.-
Gen. Sprsgue has started movement in the
Senate looking TO the increase Of tariff on
all goods that can be manufactured in this
country. Western Republicans say they
will not vote for further increase. The
cotton manufacturers Of the East are too
much protected already. They are making
enormous profits, very little Of which ac-
crues to operatives in tine mill. There is
system Of labor growing up in New Eng
land more baneful on the working classes
than ever slavery was on the negroes Of the
South. In many cases they are worked
harder, and for more hours-with a. little
opportunity for improvement-especia
children-many Of whom never see the in
side of school room. II this state Of things
Is not soon arrested, it will take but few
years to reduceslabor to the degrading posi-
ton of the great manufacturing towns Of Old
England, where the workingmen and women
are as much theserfs Of capital as their an
cestors were Of the military mobiles Of the
Middle Ages And this is what some peo-
pie call prosperity" and il Is to the fen, but
II is ruin and degradation to the many.-Ner

How n Conductor saved Young Lady
from being Choi<ed 20 Death.

From the Dubuque Tines
Not long since Conductor Cawley had the
blessed privilege Of carrying out a loving
couple, who assumed the position Of Lord
Ullin's Daughter and her betrothed, 40
afiectingly described in the Teachers Insti-
tute last week:
Zone lovely hand was stretched for aid,
Ard one was round her lover
Only in this case, instead Of one hand being
stretched for aid," il was where the other
was, encircling his inamorata. They had
evidently been up, or at least awake, very
late the evening before, for the train had not
reached Farley, till the female member OF
the firm was sound asleep-nothing 10 be
wondered at, for the position abe had assumed
was in every way favorable 10 calm and
sweet repose. The by-sitters we're simply
amused but Conductor Cawley, more ex-
perienced, foresaw serious, if not fatal, re-
suits. Approaching the sleeping maiden,
he took one wrist in his hand, and look
ing at his watch with professional air, after
a few moments addressed the Young man:
Ny dear sir, do you not see you are kill
ing the lady7"
Wharf, exclaimed the youth in OPEN
m.uthed ast0nishment.
"Don't You see you are killing that young
lady? Her pulse is only eighteen 10 the
minute now, and unless you let go your hold
around her neck, you will have her choked
10 death in ten minutes"
He let 20. There was some laEgh;er
among observers, but Cawley passed de
murely on.

HIS VIEWS ON THE QUESTIONS NOW
BEFORE THE COUNTRY.

1Ct4StAt<LE, n l., 4tof ~, 1coJ.
Hon John Bell:
Ny DEAR SIR: Several days ago, when in
Nashville, | had as you recoilect, an inter-
view with you, in which you were kind
enough to express to me freely your views as
to the present and future policy of the Gov
eminent in the vital work of restoring peace,
prosperity and permanency to the Federal
Union. You spoke from Southern stand
point and was exceedingly gratifed at the
liberal and patriotic feelings you announced
in reference to the great questions now pre-
sented to the country. Allow me to request
you to embody your views, as expressed in
substance to me, that they may be fully
placed before the country. Your eminent
career as an Ameaican statesman, and your
position before the nation as the leader of
the Southern Union men in 1860, viii enti-
tie them to earnest consideration throughout
the country, and largely contribute to an
enlightened view of our national affairs at
present.
With feelings of great respect, your ODE

THE RESULT IN BRADFORD.

IT is with no ordinary feelings of pride
and qualification that we call attention tc
the official table of the vote cast in this
County, at the late election 1t will be
seen that Gen. GEARY has majority over
CLYMER of 4043 votes while Mr. MRRCUR's
majority over Judge ELwEIL is 1898 votes
The aggregate vote is lO263, being the
largest ever polled in the County.
This gratifying result has been achieved
in the face of the most extraordinary ef.
forts on the part of the Copperheads to de.
ceive the people and debauch public senti.
ment. The candidate for Congress was Sc.
lected with especial reference to the defe at
of Mr.. MERCUR, by drawing off Republican
votes. A longtime resident OF this County
universally respected and esteemed, he had
been long enough removed from us, and
upon the bench, to be lost sight of politi.
calIy, and consequently without an obnox.
ious political record. Added to this, was
all manner of misrepresentation not only
of the Republican party, but of Mr. MER-
Ours votes in Congress, and lavish use of
money, contributed from the office-holders
under the National Government.
Nor was the Copperhead party without
assistance from those who have acted with
the Republicans While we have no
knowledge of the detection of single vo-
ter who has hitherto been looked upon as a
sound Republican, there were a number of
men, under the lead of Mr.. TRACY, who have
always Indignantly secuted the idea of act,
ing with the Copperheads, but who, this
fall threw off the mask they had hitherto
worn, and openly fought under the ban
ner of CLYMER. Their efforts to mislead
Republicans was signal failure. We do
not belive that these men carried with
them a dozen votes.
| The voters of this District have rallied
not for the elevation of men, but to testify
their devotion to the principles of Freedom.
and their unwavering attachment to the
great cause for which they voted for years.
They have been inspired with deep feel
ing OF determination to sustain the men
who in Congress have sought to recon
| struCt the Union on such a basis as wouId
secure lasting peace between the North
and the Southland with desire to rebuke
the accidental occupant of the Presidential
chair. From this purpose neither the
threatenings Of power, nor the seductions
of place, could swerve them but they have
spoken at the polls the voice of Freemen.

sa~ Mr. CLYNER made speech at Phila-
delphia just previous to the election, in
which he facetiously remarked that he had
been upon the borders of the African dis
trict," as he pleasantly termed these be.
nighted Northern counties. Whereat his
auditors laughed, as if he had perpetrated
a good joke. We should very much like
to see the smile which illamir ated his
countenance as he heard the returns from
Bradford, Tioga and Susquehanna Counties.
The laugh didn't come in, then not much
A majority of $500 votes, on the wrong
side, is not calculated to excite mirthful
emotions. The people of the " African dis
trict" are now even with Mr.. CLYMER. He
had his joke, before election. They, theirs,
