MORE LIGHT.-Our appeals as poll
ticians must be to the intelligence OF
the people. One convert who reasons
himself into his new faith, is worth a
dozen made by mercenary means, or
by appeals to passion or prejudice.
Hence Democratic newspapers should
be more extensively circulated. Let
Republicans but read both sides, and
they will be Democrats soon enough.
The people want more light. Will our
Democratic politicians throughout the
country heed the Macedonian cry, and
come forward to help us? More Hght!
Who would not contribute his mite
to furnish that single ray of intelligence
which may be instrumental in saving
a political sinner? Democrats, take
counsel together, and see whether you
can't do something to increase the cir
culation of your newspaper organs.
AMPUTATION.-Ou old friend, Capt.
John Long, formerly of Liberty tp.,
this county, but for some years a resi-
dent of COalmont, Huntingdon co., had
his left hand amputated, few days
ago, the member having been attacked
by cancer. The operation was per-
formed by DIR. Kelley, OfSt. CIairsville, !
and DIR. w. Watson, jr., of this place.
Owing to the skilful manner in which
the physicians made the amputatiOn,
the Captain is doing well and hopes
soon to be himself again, minus the
poor, faithful old hand which he was
compelled to surrender.
