CURwENsVTLLE, Pa. Jan. 81,

CURwENsvILLE, Pa, Jan. q. II.
! Mr.. EDITOR In last weeks issue of
the Republican I see an article from this
| place, over the signature of g A Fact in
| which the writer endeavors to create the
| impression that the loyal or Republican citi-
zens of our borough treated inhumany a
negro, who came here on visit to John
Carl, Ia barber and who had his foot bad
ly frozen on his way here. He also says the
| leading business men of the place raised
fund to resEtp him." leaving the inference
that they were all Republicans. | admit
that nearly all the money paid over for that
purpose came from Republicans, but deny
that single Republican approved of the
course pursued in the case. Quite num-
Der of our best citizens, of both parties,
deprecated the act, and were IN favor of
keeping him here until he was in condi-
ton to be removed with safety
The man who went around town soliciting
money to defray the expenses of his removal,
was Copperhead of the worst and most
venomous kind, Knox township secession
ist-one who proclaimed aloud, during the
war. his preference for JEFF. Davis and his
followers, and one Of the gallant and chiv
alric (?) gentlemen who ''were determined
to resist the draft, - and supporter OF, and
sympathizer with, that gallant little army
who were so ANONYMOUSLY defeated, by less
than half their number of the Invalid
Corps, and where the brave, though lily
advised, Tom Adams fell a victim to the
cOwardly treason of the Democracy of
Clearfield county. This is the man and kind
Of men that wont pay taxes to support a
niger pauper.
"A Fact" knoVingly misstates facts, when
he says he don't know whether or not this
man was brought here for the purpose of
securing his vote.
Such coarse and gross Misrepresentation
and falsehoods should not be allowed to go
unrebuked in our county any longer, par
ticuIarly when made by man who processes
Christianity and proclaims himself fol
lower of the meek and lowly Jesus. If
"A Fact was humane, or Christian gen
tleman, he would have contributed some
thing, however small, to the relief of this
unfortunate fella8 creature, who, had their
positions been reversed, would, have no
doubt, have proved himself superior, in
every respect, to tie coarse, unteehng and
cold-hearted Copperhead who would write
such an article. 4 CITIZEN.

EVERYBODY Knows Us. Some say
that it is no use for them to advertise, that
they have been in one place of business all
their lives, and everybody knows them.
Such people seem to forget to take into con
sIderation that our county is fast increasing
In population, and no matter how old the
place may be, there are constant changes ia
king place. some move to other parts, and
stangers fill their places. In this age of the
world, unless the name of business firm is
constantly before the public, some new firm,
by literally advertising, in very short time
takes the place of the older one, and the
latter rusts out, as it were, and is forgotten.
No man ever lost money by judicious adver-
tising
