RUMBLING IN THE MOUNTAINS

RUMBLING IN THE MOUNTAINs.-
The municipal election took place in
Scranton, Luzerne county, Pa, on Fri
day last and resulted in a brilliant demo-
cratic victory. Last year the disunion-
lists carried that borough by q majority
of about one hundred and fifty, and on
Friday, Gregory, the Democratic candi-
date for Chief Burgess, was elected by a
majority of over five hundred and fifty,
showing a gain for the Democracy in
twelve months Of seven hundred votes !!
In the North Ward a Democratic coun-
Gilman was chosen tor the first time
since the borough was established; and
on the whole, the Democracy generally
had a right good time. This is cheering,
but it is only forerunner of what may
be expected next fall, when the popular
avalanche sweeps over the country.
The New era. [volume] (Martinsburg, W. Va.) 1865-1871, 1866-05-03

ANOTHER GLORIOUS VIcroRY.-The
Democratic victory at Quincy, ILL.,, turns
out to have been even greater than the
telegraph reported it. A letter from
there says:
awe elected our entire ticket, from
Alpha to Omega, by the overwhelming
majority of SOO-a gain of nearly ,ooo
votes in the short space of six months.
The Republican nominee for Mayor was
Ex-Governor, ex-Colonel John WOOD,
undoubtedly the strongest man in thell
ranks. The city is alive with enthusiasm
over the result. Flags are floating from
every quarter One hundred guns have
been fired, and grand torchlight pro-
cession and illumination in honor OF our
victory will take place soon.'

THE Btrkeley Union, in its last issue,
is guilty of a most scurrilous attack
upon the character Of several highly re-
spectacle citizens Of this county. BY
all. who know the gentlemen referred
to. the attack will be regarded as the
mere filth Of blackguardism. When its
author shall rise to the responsibility of
either of the gentlemen named, he will
hold much more honorable position in
society than AT present. They laugh
with contempt at his malignant but
harmless assaults.

Pen Picture Of jefferson sDasisby a
MuSfet llIiSt

Below is a pen picture Of the great
s'rebel chief which all who read it will
say it is drawn With the touch of a mas
ter:
ole jeff. was a close student, a chiv.
alric opponent, steadfast friend, a gen.
tleman in all his relations, and in his
own family singularly kind and genial.
Although undoubtedly the head and
heart OF the Southern rebellion, he aceM
into 1t rel,,ctaatly, as all rho heard his
laH speech in the Senate wiH remember,
anilea with broken accents and fearful eyes
he bade fd1emeH ot once to that body and
to 0V true greatness. Jefferson Davis
was best with many accomplishments.
He was alike soldier and a statesman.
No public man of my acquaintance was
more devoted to scientific pursuits, and
more familiar with the abstruse teach
ings of political philosophy. No branch
of human knowledge seemed to be I'M
worthy of his investigation"
The above is certainly fine-and who
reader do you suppose wrote it?
you are a Radical, you will say it was
ONE Nallandiehamer. Not so. The
writer was no other than John w. For
ney, and it was printed in his own Wash.
ington Chronicle. He pennd it at a time
when depravity had not yet taken entire
possession OHM.

CHOLERA.

BY the recent arrival Of enaigEnt
ships At New York, the cholera has beer
brought to our shores. That It will ex-
tend TO other Of eur cities and towns,
and along cur thoroughfarcs, there is
but little doubt. The diversity Of views
presented as to the prevention and treat
ment Of this dreaded disease, and the
mode in Which it is propagated, IS very
great. All agree, however, upon one
point that cleanliness is the surest pre-
ventive Of the disease. Its history, the
world over, shows that in filthy localities
it may be expected soonest, and will
tarry longest.
The Rev. CYRUS HAMLIN, fer many
years a Missionary of the American
Board of Commissioners for Foreign
Missions, at Constantinople, and who
was there through the fearful ravages of
the cholera in that city last year, has
recently published his views upon the
causes of attack. Mr.. II. says:
81 have personally investigated at
least a hundred eases, and not less than
three fourths could be traced directly to
improper diet, or to Intoxicating drinks,
or to both united. OF the remainder,
suppressed perspiration would comprise
a large number. \ strong, healthy,
temperate, laboring man had severe
attack of cholera. The occasion was
this: after some hours of hard labor and
very proflse perspiratiOn, he had lain
down to take his customary nap, right
against an open window, through which
a very refreshing breeze was blowing.
Another cause is drinking largely of
cold water when hot and thirsty. Great
fatigue, great anxiety, fright, fear, all
figure among melting causes. If one
can avoid all these he is as safe from the
cholera as from being swept away by a
comet
On the subject of contagion the rever-
end gentleman is good authority, and
the following should go far to convince
contagionists of the folly of hoping to
exclude by quarantine disease which,
all experience seems to prove, travels on
the winds and flourishes only where its
proper pabulum is found in the foul and
poisonous effluvia of crowded cities and
towns:
"The idea Of contagion should be
abandoned. All the missionaries who
havebeen most with the most malignant
cases, day after day, are fully convinced
of the Acknowledgements Of the cholera.
The incipient attacks which all have
suffered from are to be attributed to
great fatigue, making the constitution
liable to an attack"

CHARGES OF PERJURY.

We trust that Conservative Union
men will not be frightened from doing
their duty, by the Wholesale charges of
perjury made against them by disunion
radicals, for registering as voters. Their
noise and fury on this subject are simply
an effort of desperation, to deter citizens
from exercising their just and eonsti
tutional rights. They know that any
thing like a fair expression of the popu
lar will on the question of the Consti-
tutional Amendment, about to be sub
mitted to the people of this State, would
condemn forever that proposed measure
of wrong and injustice. Such an. eX
preston they must prevent, or sink into
utter pewerlessness and contempt. They
are therefore Ysorting tomeasures which
are violative Of every principle Of JUS
tice, every rule Of propriety, everysenti-
ment Of honor. The majesty Of law, the
responsibility ola virtuous life. the veneer
ableness of age, the saactity of the
grave even, affords no protection against
their venomous selfishness and malice.
Falsehood and SANDER are their chosen
weapons Of attack, and their freedom
and skill in the use of these weapons,
show them to have achieved a perfect
triumph over every Instinct OF honesty,
and every sensibility of conscience that
may once have restrained the vileness
Of their nature.
But strong in the consciousness of
right intention, and moved by the spirit
of true patriotism, let every honest, law
abiding, conservative citizen go steadily
forward in the discharge of his duty,
bidding defiance to the threats of every
eonspirator against his liberties and
rights, and ready to do battle, if need
be, to the death, to protect tie sacred
heritage bequeathed us by our immortal
Fathers.

confirm the recent appointments made
by President johnson in Pennsylvania.
Several of the Senators announced that
no man who was nominated to office on
the ground Of his advocacy of the Pres

WE have been informed that General
HARRIS, in a late speech made by him
at Parkersburg, quoted II. II. BLACK
BURN, Esq, of this town, as his au-
thority for stating that we were eds
missed the military service of the United
States in disgrace, for disloyalty.' Mr..
BLACKBURN has called upon us, and
pronounced the statement that he had
ever asserted any such thing to Gen.
HARRIS, or any one else, "an infamous
lie'
As the matter now stands before us,
Gen. HARRIS appears to be both the
slanderer and liar. If any charge of
disloyalty to the United States Govern
ment was ever preferred against US
while we were in the army, W. We're
kept in profound Ignorance of the fact.
We never heard of it before. Our conn
mission as Assistant Acknowledgement,
was direct from President LINCOLN,
confirmed by the United States Senate,
and this after we had been two years in
the volunteer service.
