He was for a long time employed in
Benjamin Green's store as a clerk.

become quite wealthy by running steam

Murmers of war and mutteIings of
discomfort grow louder and louder in
France. The pacific professions of the
Emperor are not trusted, and it is i'm
possible for Napoleon to conciliate his
subjects either by the prospect of peace
or by promised glories of war. The
familiar expedition of depotism-pros-
ecution of the press and repression of
free speech-is being tried with relent-
less severity. But the smouldering
fires of revolution can no more be ex-
tinguished in this way tnan steamer
CINE can be stopped by tying down the
safety-valve.

OK TEETH. IF there be anything
more unsightly and disgusting than a
set of blackened and decaying teeth,
from which the tartar and accumulated
impurities are never removed. but
suffered to remain and the foul breath,
it is not known to modern society
Teeth not only beautify and adorn the
human countenanc9, when clean and
regular, but they are most useful mem
bers in our physical economy. "The
best of friends fall out sometimes, and
our teeth are DO deception. When
kept clean, however, the last longer,
and remain more beautiful. A meder-
tely stiff tooth brush shoulk be used at
least twice day, with pure soft water
When this treatment failes to pro-
duce the desired effect, then dentrifices
may be resorted to Ground pumice-
stone and charcoal scratch the enamel,
and should not be used prepared chalk
is excellent, and forms the basis of all
the best tooth-powders. Common salt
is often used, and is not injurious. If
the teeth ere loose, little tinctur of
myrrh added to the water with which
they are brushed will render the gums
firm, Should the breath be unpleasant
from decaying teeth, the prepared chalk
may be mixed with one thirtieth its
weight of chloride Of lime. Let a
good professional dentist examine your
teeth twice year at leas, that he may
discover and arrest decay when it is
not far advanced Do not tinker with
your own teeth or those of others, any
more than you would tinker with the
hair spring of your own or another's
valuable watch; let a professional at
tend to them in each case.

You've MEN-It should be the aim
of young men to move in good society
we mean not the rich, nor the proud,
nor the fashionable, but the society of
the intelligent, aud the good. Where
you find men who know more than
yon do, and from whose conversation
you can gather information it is always
safe to be found
It has broken down many man, by
associating with the low and vulgar,
where the ribald songs were incalcu-
lated and the indecent story told to ex
cite laughter, or influence the bad pass
ions. Lord Clarendon attributed sue
cess and happiness in life to associating
with persons more learned and virtuous
than ourselves. If yon wish to be wise
and respected and desire happiness and
not misery-we advise you to associate
with the intelligent and good. Strive
for excellence and strict integrity, and
you will never be found in the sinks of
pollution, or on the benches of revilers
and gamblers. Once habituate your
self to virtuous course, or once Sc
cure love for good society, aud no
punishment would be greater than to
be obliged by accident to associate for
half day with the low and vulgar.

Negro Troops Imaginary.

1t has just beon discovered that the gov.
eminent was dettaudod Of Overa million
and a.half Of dollars 10 the War Office, under
thoimmaculate Stanton, in the single item Of
bountics for the negro soldiers who fought
so brayely." Papers for whole regiments
were forged in tho office, presented and
paid. These were the very negro regiments
Imaginary ones--which did such wonder,
ful sorvice during the war, two huedred S!
thousand of whom were organized by Stan
ton ION paper and who put down the re-.
belion.' Cameron has now vote ofthanks
before Congress to Stanton, for organizing
those men Of straw and buckram. The tax.
payers will b. surprised to learn that tho
large body of these men never fought, nev-
er existed, but that they were treated as
such by Stanton; the pay was drawn, and
Cameron, OF course, didn't know it or he
wouldn't want to thank Stanton. Oh, no.
The tax payers are still paying these very
bills, and will continue to do 10 for all eter.
nifty If they do not wrest the government
from the hands Of these thieving radicals.

Legislative SwindIfna.

We have for the past several weeks paid
come attention to the subject Of the late
enormous swiadling operations BY the
Legislature Of Pennsylvania, ard this week
give additional extracts, from our exchanges
Oh the same subject, as will be seen by ref
eyenec to subsequent columns Of the Colns-.
Tia Democrat. When the peoples servants
become corrupt, and beuay public conf
icnce, their iniQui,ies should be fully ex-
posed, and this duty, however unpleasant,
necessarily deyclycs upon the conductors Of
the Public Press. In the passage Of the
Sunbury and Erie Railroad Bill, and the re-
peal Of the Tonnage Tax on the Pennsyl-
3ania Railroad, we regret to say that large
number cf. members Of both branches of
the Legislature have utterly forfeited the
confidence of their constituents and sealed
their political doom for coming time.
In this category, we regret to record the
names Of Hiram r. Kline Of Columbia /;
Thomas Osterhout, Of Wyoming VIM. IL.
Butler, Of Carbon; and Peter +. Ei!cuber-
ger, Of Northampton, Democratic members
of the House. Franklin Bound Of North
umberlaud Jeremiah Schindla, Of North
amptol and Kennedy j.. Blood, Of jeff
erson, the first named Republican, and the
two last named Democratic Senators. We
sympsthise with them, not in their rascality,
but as personal friends, in their great mis-
fortune, and can only commend them to the
mercy Of their injured and betrayed constit-
uents; having sown to the wind, they must
expect to reap the whirlwind. Columbia

NOTICE.

After the 10th Of August next we will not
send out the DEMOCRAT to any of our sub
seribers who have not paid their subscrip-
tons. All the material used is cash in
advance besides all the labor We employ
is paid for in cash as it is performed. When
a subscription hangs over year, the little
profit we would have upon it, if paid in ad.
vance, is lost. 1t is lost in this way We
have invested that money in material and
labor and laid a year out of it, thus losing
the use of the cost Of paper, besides the
small fractional profit. On one subscription
ihe profit would be small, but in the aggre-
gate, (spy two thousand subscribers) it would
amount to q snug sum Of money to the edi-
tor. Those in arrears will please heed this
notice, and attend to their subscriptions in
tine.

got into under the control Of the party

man who will acquaint himself with the
facts can use his influence to continue them

which destroyed millions Of lives, laid waste
many Of our finest States, overturned civil
liberty and entailed upon US debt which
threatens us with utter ruin. All these
things are admitted by the Mongrels. They
never attempted to deny them. When they
were practiced, the only excuse was that
great good was to be accomplished for the
whole country. Now, behold the result |!
Ten States are crushed out Of existence.
All their good and great citizens are disfran.

of negroes, and thieves, cut-throats and
escaped felons swarm over the country to
control the whole vote. What result to
follow all that we have suffered. All the

be remembered that when Col. LEVI L.

nation Of State Senator, he was charged by
quite number in this township for the en-
actment of this Infamous DOG TAX that
we all have TO pay. l was one Of Tate's
friends, and did all in my power to correct
the report, and place the much disliked and
Objectionable piece of legislation where it
belonged. was aware that Col. HIRAM
r. KLINE placed that piece Of legislation
upon the people of Columbia county, Oblig-
ing them to pay a TAX for every dog they
owned, and 80 informed the people of this
township. l notice that this man KLINE,
in whom the Democracy of this county once
had confidence, is out again for legislative
honors. Why did he not come up for re-
nomination in 1862? What had he done
that he was willing to be made yearling
Of? Did his course condemn him, or did
he feel incompetent to faithfully and hon.
estly represent the people of this District ?
Let him answer these questions. The peo-
pie the Democracy Of Pine wish to vote
at the Delegate election understandingly.
They wish to know why Mr.. KLINE is a
candidate in 1868 and was not, q candidate
for denomination in 1862 They, wish him
also to explain the benefits Of his DOG
TAX. Wien he once does this, satisfac.
torily, Pine will consider the matter as to
whether they will give him the Delegates at
the coming Convention.
Yours, truly, A vorER OF PINE.
