Within the next six weeks the Dem
ocrats of this county will be called
upon to select their standard bearers
for the approaching campaign, which
all parties admit, will be the most
vigorous and exciting, this country
has ever passed through. Every Dem
ocrat who loves his country and in
tends his offspring to enjoy the bless
ing of liberty in the future, must press
TO the front. We want no straglers,
nor "dead BEATS" nor skulkers in our
ranks; and if we attack the enemy
vigorously beyond doubt we will
secure a glorious victory.
Those, therefore, who contemplate
offering themselves as candidates for
county Offices in the approaching can
vass, may as we'll be informed now
that the party will require much at
their hands. There will be no divi-
ding Of responsibilities. Our nomi-
nees must do their duty to the party,
after which the party will discharge
its duty to them.
Two elections are TO be held this
year. Time, talent and means will be
required by those who seek posts of
honor and profit. Those persons who
intend to offer themselves at the ap-
preaching primary election for Con-
gress, Senator, Representative, Pro
thonotary, Register & Recorder, Com
missioner and Auditor, will be requir-
ed to bring into the contest just what
we have enumerated; and those cho-
sen for our standard bearers at the
primary election, will be required to
put on the harness and wear it until
the fourth day of November next
They must prosecute the campaign
vigorously, and sec that every Demo-
cratic voter is brought to the polls.
Our nominees must carry the party,
and not the party them. Dead weights
and all unnecessary baggage must be
discarded. We want no candidates
to wage a vigorous campaign in their
own interest exclusively, previous to
the primary election, and when it is
over never let themselves be seen out
of their own yards. Tho people will
require those who manifest so much
zeal for their owR interest before, TO be
equally jealous for the interest Of the
party dfterUdrds. Democrats when
approached by candidates before the
primary election, should refuse to
support them unless they agree to at
tend to the interests Of the party af-
ter they are nominated, and should
they refuse, then the citizens should
refuse to support them ; because it is
not expected that citizens who neith-
or seek nor care for Office, should car.
ry on a campaign for the benefit of
candidates.
We expect 10 take party interest
in this campaign, and desire to dis
charge our duty in our humble way
TO the best of our ability, and we want
our party friends to do the same. AS
Chairman of the County Committee,
we will most likely "turn up" in eve
ry borough and township of the soun-
ty, and we expect township commit
tee men and candidates to "swing
around the circle" too. Let us make
one long, strong pull altogether, and
drive from power the plundering,
Union.hating, ncgro-loving scalliwags
who are breaking up the government
and demoralizing the people.

A paper in Indianapolis, Indiana
proposes that hereafter, instead Of
saying, Iet us sing the Doxology,
the minister shall say, 'Get us put on
overcoats, adjust furs, slip on gloves
grab bats, look TO the Lord, and be

A droll story is told of an honest
old farmer, who in attempting to
drive home a bull, got suddenly hois-
ted over a fence. Recovering himself
he saw the animal on the other side
of the rails saving the air with his
head and neck and paving the ground.
The good old man looked steadily at
him for a moment, and exclaimed :
"Durn your apologies, you needn't
stand there bowin' and scrapin' you
tarnel crittcr, you know you did it a
purpose, durn your ugly pictcr."
