OUR friend Ieyers of the Bedford Go
zette, who was appointed Collector of
this District by President Johnson, has
been lust as we confidently anticipa
ted by the Senate. We regard this as
a very high compliment to Mr.. Meyers
political character.-We trust there
may be no disgraceful compromise in
regard to the appointments in this Dis
trict. We should certainly have no
higher opinion of Andrew johnson, if
such should prove to be the case, and
we know that we would ask the scOrn
of eUery honest man to fall upon the
Senate, should they be parties to such a
disreputable barrier.-FultOn Demo-
crdt
"The high contracting parties" have
agreed that Mr.. VIM. McShery Dem
of Adams, and Mr.. C. w. Ashcom
(Rep.?) of this county, shall be, respec-
lively, Assessor and Collector of Inter
nal Revenue for this district Mr..
McSherry is first-rate man and a good
Democrat. Mr.. AshcOm is not quite
so good Democrat, but, as he has fire.
quentIy voted for Democratic candi-
dates, declares himself opposed to Ne
gro Suffrage, "and received his appoint
ment through Democratic influence,
we may reckon him almost within the
Democratic fold. Hence, our friend of
the Democrat will perceive that there
was no "compromise"-not the slight
est-in the appointment of these gen
tlemen. Andrew Johnson will still re-
tain the good opinion of the Democrat
and "the scorn of every honest man"
will not fall upon the Senate"-at least
until Mr.. Ashcom shall have appointed
his subordinates.

J. w. DICK ERSON,
Chairman Dem. Co. Com.
SENATOR STUTZMAN.

The Inquirer has taken up the cud-
gels and is belaboring with great fero-
city the devoted gentleman whose
name stands at the head of this article.
1t is not our province to defend Sena-
tor StutZman against the malignant at
tacks of the Inquirer, but we will say
for him that as man, a citizen and a
legislator, his record is bright and shi-
ming compared with that Of certain
special pet of, and occasional scribbler
for, that delectable sheet. Even upon
the railroad question, he is less vulner-
able than the man who, during the last
five years, has distributed passes over
the Pennsylvania Railroad, by the
handful. Senator Stutzman certainly
stood faithfully by the interests of the
Pittsburgh and Connellsville Railroad
company, whilst his attention to the
wants ofhis constituents, has been all
that could be desired. His views and
votes upon the question Ofa ''free rail-
road law" are not what we hoped they
would be, but they are shared by a large
majority of his party in the Legisla-
ture. The Radicals, as body, are re-
sponsible for the enactment of the bo-
gus ''free railroad law" of which the
Inquirer complains. They are in a
large majority in both houses of the
Legislature, and, therefore, could, il
they would, give us the proper legisla-
tion. Why, then, does the Inquirer
single out Senator Stutzman, when it
might discharge the contents of its
blunderbusS, with much greater effect,
into the whole flock? The fact is that
there is not whit of sincerity in the
complaints of these querulous editors,
and, mark our word, before the very
next election, they will be loud and
fulsome in their praises of the same
legislators who have sold the people
'like sheep in ntheshambles." Senator
Stutzman is Radical and that is the
worst that can be said of him. We
shall fight him politically, always, but
so long as we retain our present re.
spect for his personal character, we
shall deem it the duty of friendship to
say good word for him when assailed
by so disreputablC sheet as the Bed
ford Inquirer.

PEPPERGRAMS.

The first instant proved the Radical
party to be April fools, for on that day
they expected to carry Connecticut.
The Connecticut election was held on
last Monday. We know very little OF
the result.-Bedt0rd Inquirer.
How utterly dumbfounded! a clap
of thunder from clear sky, could not
have frightened the Inquirer chaps
more completely out of their wits, than
the result of the election in Connecti-
cut. We hope, however, that they will
recover their senses in time TO give
their readers true account Of that cleo
ton, in their next issue.
The u. S. Senate have rejected the
nominations of Gen. F. P. Blair as
Minister to Austria, and Gen. ii. w.
Slocum as Naval Officer at New York.
An angel of light, if of Democratic an
tecedents, could not pass through that
limbo of lunatics with wings unsinged.

faithfulnesS of the Governor, goes far
to relieve us from the grief that accom-
| panies the recollection that we voted
| for such man for Senator as Stutzman.
Bedford Inquirer.
How about your grief as to the black
mail you levied on Stutzman, in the
shape of contributions to the Inquirer
establishment? OF course you regret
that you took that money from him.
Geary vetoed the bill to increase the
powers OF the Pennsylvania Railroad

The arguments used with the Governor

and cogent character.
The Bedford Inquirer copies an arti-
/ Gle from the Richmond Examiner, prais

RErHs PILLS so stimulate all the interior powers
of the system that every poison or mpurity is for
ced from the blood into the bowels, and thus pas
ses off. Recent cases of sickness will often be
cured by the effect of or s Brandreth Pills,
which, when the operation is full and complete,
leave the blood as free from poisonous and un-
healthy matter as that of a newborn babe. In
colds, infammatory diseases, and even in cholera,
their use restores to health sooner than all other
remedies because they take from the blood and
bowels those matters upon which pains, cramps,
and aches depend for continuance.
Captain Isaac Smith, of Sing Sing, says, thirty
of Brandreh's Pills, taken according to directions,
cured him of very severe bronchial affection af-
ter other means had failed and he wishes his nu-
merous friends to know the fact.
