LETTER FROM HOMESPUN.
NEAR CHENEYSVILLE,
Nov. 26. 1866,

EDITOR GAZETTE:-I am quite re-
lieved to find that the bIack-guard who
has been slandering the people, as well
as the topography, Of our good Old
Sf"BR@gqt2 lg lgndffft ajf tt9 TIE sae zee Mh6 Gh 2sff asff
year, wrote for your paper, in OBJ
iurgation Of the kinky-headed Iunatics
who wouldn't take passage in his "car
of progress" Ihad been informed that
"Pilgrim" is identical with your ''Un-
Gle Toby" of last year, but could not be-
lieve that the latter had fallen so far
from grace as to be capable Of so vii
famous a calumnyupOn his own friends
and neighbors as that uttered in his
first letter. Hence my heart was glad
dened when | saw, in the GAZETTE, a
Reputation and condemnation of that
CalumniOuS letter over the proper sig
nature Of the veritable "Uncle Toby"
himself. | was rejoiced at this, because
/ could not bear to think of one sWhOse
gentle calling requires him to reprove
the back-biter and slanderer, and who
processes to be a minister Of Him Who
when He was ''reviled, reviled not "a
gain" thus dipping his pen "in the
gall of bitterness" and striving to
blacken the good name of those who
never entertained even a harmful
thought of him. The idea of such
WantOn malignity was 50 revolving to
me that coulI not for moment, con-
meet it with the lamb-like character of
our gentle "Uncle Toby" ruminating
in the SHADOW Of the Mountain" or
riding quietly and inOtIensiveiy in his
"Car Of Progress" 1t could not be
possible, / thought, that the Fiend
himself, had insinuated his loathsome
shape ander so fair an exterior. thrust
the suspicion from me, and almost ha-
ted myself for being 50 ungenerous as
to entertain it for a moment. | am
convinced, however, of one thing, viz:
"Pilgrimo is not IA resident Of this
township. People here are not taught
to spell the word caarass (wnen applied
to political campaign with only one
$; hence pilgrim" can't be a South
amptonian. BY the way, don't you
think that Pilgrim" after spelling
caarass, with but one 5, would spell his
own name thus, Is? But it makes
very little difference where this con-
temptible caIumniator lives. The poi
son he intends for others, will only Kill
himself. Let the viper blow. His
fangs will soon be the trophy of the
friends Of IIOMESpUN.

vices rendered, and claims that moth

him for turning his back upon his old
friends, and as Geary naturally SYM
pathizes with renegades, John stands a

Outside pressure, however, may yet
put your townsRan all right. But be-
tween these two land several more) our
Democratic Governor, "without prefix
or affix." is in a terrible stew. He
''could be happy with either, if t'Other

he to satisfy both? Poor Geary! he is
in the hands of the Philistines, and he
cannot now see his sway as clear as Sam

Gov. Curtin is busily engaged in cleo
tioneering for the Mongrel caucus nom
ination for Z. S. Senator. Strange
as it may seem, he is apparently the
strongest candidate spoken of at pres
ent. Gen. Cameron is also on the tapiS,
and | will be greatly mistaken if he
doesn't give His Excellency some trOu-
! BILE, before the latter reaches the vacant
chair of Edgar Cowan. Curtin has had
/ his fugleman, Mcclure, to call county
convention in Franklin county, for the
| purpose of instructing for him ICurtin)
for Z. S. Senator. Stambaugh, the
member from Franklin, and McCon-
aughy, the Senator from the Franklin
district, are friends of Cameron, and
/ Curtin took this plan to tie their hands.
1t remains to be seen whether they
will tamely submit to this sort of work.
/ Curtin is just about the meanest man
in the whole "Mongrel'' party, having
/ deceived everybody that ever placed
confidence in him, and l, therefore,
/ think him the very best representative
of that party that could be sent to the
U. S. Senate. Forney and Stevens too,
are aspirants for this position. 1Pro-
pos of this, it is related that certain
politician visited the latter some time
ago, upon the subject Of transferring
some of his votes to one or another OF
his competitors. Old Thad. opened out
on his visitor as follows: "Forney
| No one ever trusted him except Buch-
anan! Curtin! why, he is the great
! est liar in the State, and rs to Cameron,
he is the greatest rascal! Now, what
| would you have me do ," A lovely set,
are they not?
The e. S. Senator question slightly
! involves the minor one Of Speaker OF
the House. Col. Quay, of Beaver, is
| the Curtin candidate, whilst w. D.
WaddeIl, Esq, of Chester, is put for,
ward by the Cameronians. Waddell is
| the better man Of the two, and was
: really the leader Of his party in the last
House. 1t is probable, however, that
| Quay will be the man. But enough fol-

SP0LIA OPEMA.

"When Greek meets Greek, then
comes the tug of war" When Mon
greI meets Mongrel, then comes the tug
for the spoils. The latteris the render
ing Of the old proverb, as applied to
modern American politics. The mix
ed and motley set that have controlled
the government during the last six
years, (having, during their ascendan-
cy, fought for the offices alone, shaped
the legislation of the country only to
the end that they might retain the fat
things which attach to official station.
used the machineryof war, the muscle
and blood and life-breath of the devo-
ted soldier, merely to secure the emol-
uments of office, and having determin-
ed even to keep the Union dissolved to
maintain themselvesin power are nst
now engaged in parceling out among
themselves the fruits, the &potia opima,
of their ill-gotten victory. In Penn
sylvania the struggle among them is
for the L. S. SenatOrship, soon to be-
come vacant by the expiration of the
term Of Senator Cowan. Curtin. Cam
eron, Stevens, Forney, Grow and More
head are all aspirants for this position.
The struggle between them is growing
fierce and bitter. Especially is this the
case as between Curtin and Cameron.
These two wOrthicS are now busily en-
gagged in plotting and contemplating
against each other, and the whole Mon
grel nest is in a buzz of excitement o.
yer the fight between them. Now.
were we Mongrcl, our sympathy
would be decidedly with Curtin. He
is the meancst man in the whole lot,
and, therefore, would best represent
his party. 1t is true, we might mis-
trust his fidelity, for he has betrayed
his own party several times and the De-
mocracy once, during the last six years.
But that only proves his meanness,
and. therefore, his fitness to be Mon
grel L. 5. Senator. What the Mongrels
themselves think about him, remains
to be seen.
Curtin or Cameron, Cameron or Curtin,
Doubtful things are mighty uncertain :"

THE ELECTION IN ALLEGANY COIN
TY. MARYLAND.

We are informed that in number
of the districts of AIlegany county,
Md, at the late election, the judges re-
fused to receive the votes Of persons not
registered in 1865, declining to be gov
erned by the registration made by the
registrars appointed by Gov. Swami.
BY this process, some three or four hun
dred conservative voters were disfran-
chised in that county. Besides, in some
districts the radical mongrels had arm
ed bands at the polls and thus prevent
ed conservatives from approaching to
deposit their ballots. Still, with all the
forceand fraud against them, the friends
of the Constitution and laws, made a
good fight. McCullOh, Conservative,
was elected to the House of Delegates,
and though the Judges gave certificates
to the remainder of the mongrel cam
didates, their seats will be contested,
and we doubtnot, the offices into which
they have been foisted by force and
fraud, given to their conservative OPP
ponents. We make the following ex-
tract from a letter received from a
friend in Cumberland, which shows
that Col. Spates, conservative, is really
elected to the Senate, instead of Ohr,
mongrel, but has been counted out by
the Judges: -"The Radicals have all
had notices served upon them, that
their right to the offices to which they
claim to have been elected, would be
contested. Colonel Spates, conserva-
tive candidate for the Senate, took four
men, two radicals and two conserva-
tives, to the. Clerks Office, last Satur-
day, and demanded the tickets, which
they counted, and discovered that the
Judges hat made mistake, the count
giving Spatcs a majority of 81, instead
of his opponent, Ohr, T., as the radical
Judges had certified"

Of trustees a document, of which this is

BEWARE!

The MongreIs have succeeded, for
some years past in fuisting upon the
unsuspecting, certain pretended neutral
newspapers, such as the Pittsburg ChrOn-
icle, the Philadelphia North Anlericaa,
the Baltimore 1merican, and other
sheets of a similar character. AS this
is the time of year when subscriptions
for these incendiary publications are
taken, we desire to put our readers on
their guard, SO that they may not be
imposed upon. There is not a more
rabid Disunion Negro journal publish
ed in the United States, than the Bal
timore american and the North ADleTi-
can, of Philadelphia. As for the Pitts
burg CHrORicle, it is a cOWardly con-
Germ, which strikes the Democracy
whenever it dares, and should be shun-
ned accordingly. If people would
takea good neutral paper, let them sub
scribe to the Baltimore Sun, or the
Philadelphia Ledger; if they desire a
sound political city paper, a white
mans journal, let them take the Har-
risburg Patriot q: Union, the Philadel-
phia Age, or the Baltimore Gazette, or
Transcript. The Patriot & Union espe-
cially should be patronized. 1t is the
central organ of the Democracy of
Pennsylvania, and its weekly issue is
really able and useful. OF course, we
think every bOdyshOuld first subscribe
to the BEDFORD GAZETTE; but after
the GAZETTE, we recommend the

ATTENfT AT BURGLARY.-TueS
night or early Wednesday morning last,
an attempt was made to make a burgla-
riOus entrance into an clubhouse belong
ing to Mr.. c. Boerner, situate on the
street adjoining his residence, in this
borough, the purpose being to rob the
house, which contained quite a quanti-
ty of flour, corn, meat, &c. The thief
had bored a number of holes through
the shutter of one of the windows, max
ing sufficient aperture to admit his
hand through this he had attempted
to loosen the fastening of the window /;
but, finding himself unable to do so had
bored another hole through the wealth
erbOarding near the fastening. At this
point it is probable he became alarmed
and gave up the attempt. Mr. B will
give a handsome reward for the detec-
ton of the thief.
The same night the stable of Mr.. f.
FiXen, short distance out of town, was
entered, and a horse saddle and bride
taken out doubtless by the same party
or parties, for the purpose of carrying
away the expected booty, and after
having been used, the horse was turned
loose, and together with saddle and bri-
die were found in the morning near Mr..
FiXen's stable. The thieves had also
taken a pane out of the window of Mr..
Peightel's wagon shop, by which means
they had been enabled to extract a brace
and some half dozen bits, which had
doubtless been used in attempting the
entrance into Mr.. Boerner's flour house.
