Esq, whose clarion voice called the
French tUdr" eagles from their nests and
sent them hurrying on 10 the siege of Bos-
ton. His defendants, too, are among you.
z. r.. Wetzcll, Esq, now of I.uzerne,
could possibly furnish you with this.
My memory runs over many names for
portraiture in your memorial. Charles
Smith, the compiler of Smiths laws, and
who with Simon Snyder, was men,
Der of the convention that formed the Con-
stitution of Pennsylvania, Sept. 2, 1890,
he began his professional life, and lived
many years in Sunbury. One of his sons
was the late Gen. VIM. r. Smith, Prcs-
dent of the Wisconsin Historical Society.
Lawrence Keene, aid-de-camp of Con.
Washington, was for long time Prothon-
otary of your county, and resided in Sun
bury. Jasper Ewing, the lawyer, also OF
Revolutionary fame; Charles Hall the
Grant family Christopher Gettig, the old
Justice of the Peace, who lost his leg with
Col. Cook, on the Jersey stock
Then too, a word painting of some
scenes that have come down to us with the
sunny garb tradition loves, and seem like
tie dying cadence of some far distant mu-
sic, might be thrown in. Take the morn
ing Of n July day, 1875, when Captain
Lowdon's company left Sunbury for Bos-
ton, with Sam Brady, Peter Pence, Ma
lone, M'Coy and others in the ranks, and
as they disappeared behind the first hill on
the old Tulpehockcn road, backward upon
the morning breeze f1oated the fading notes
Of "the girl | left behind me-" from the
shrill fife of David Clement, (no doubt the
ancestor of the indeiatigable Ira T. Clcm
ent.)
Then the funeral ceremonies in honor of
I
business was suspended and long process
sion filed through the streets of Sunbury to
the old German church, where the eloquent
Dan. Smith brought tears to the eyes of
his whole audience.
The women Of Sunbury in those perlous
times, should have proper notice. Mrs.
Capt. VIM. Gray, the Scott ladies', Mrs.
VIM. Maclay, Mrs. Awl, &c.
The subsequent bar Of Sunbury who have
distinguished themselves in forensic con-
tlict, Hugh Bcllas, Ebcnezer Grcenough,
Judge Jordan. The Dr., commencing with
DIR. Plunkett, if you WILL who dressed Mrs.
Durham's head after she was scalped, so
that she lived within our own memory
the Prothonotary, Wm. Maclay, the FIRST
Senator from the State of PENNSYLVANIA in
Congress, brother in law, by the way, of
DIR. Plunkctt Harris; Nathan Smith,
who commanded company in Arnold's
expedition to Quebec Lawrence Keenc
Jasper Ewing the Recorders. Jake Simp-
son and his son jeremiah Mr.. Young
man, the old printer. Others will no doubt
be suggested whose services deserve notice
in the memorial.
Very truly Yours,
JOHN b. LINN.
NOTE. Mrs. Dr.. Plunkett died at Car.

risburgl, thence to Sunbury. lie never
married again. His family married aud
removed, and he lived in the Office now oc.
cupicd by ID. Rockefeller, Esq, in lone

tradition that he was Il bachelor.

How THE DEMOCRATIC PAPERS DE-
CEIvE THEIR READERS. We find the fol-
lowing paragraph copied in last weeks
Democrat, which is intended to deceive,
and misconstrue the law in regard to deal
ers in leaf tobacco:
RoUGH ON CIGAK MANUFACTURERs.-
Congress has passed a Tariff and Tax law,
which, among other unjust provisions, re-
qulres retail dealers in leaf tobacco to paw
an annual license fee of five hundred dol.
lars, and to pay to the Government one
half the amount Of their sales over one
thousahd dollars per year. 1tprcveuts any
person from selling and, of course, from
buying, leaf tobacco in quantities less than
a hogshead at a time. ANY man who can
not afford to buy hogshead of leaf tobacco
at Il time will be thereby excluded from the
cigar-manulacturing business There are
many poor men in the country-amoug
whom are great many Germans-who
have been making an honest living by the
manufacture of cigars on limited scale.
who have not the capital TO buy n hogshead
OF leaf tobacco at time, who will now be
Obliged TO quit the business. If this is the
way to gain votes for the Administration
we iail TO see it. But this Administration
cares nothing for poor n.-Lancaster
Ia;ellgencer.
10 show the deception in the above, we
direct attention to the following decision
OF the Internal Revenue Commissioner, and
would ask the Lancaster Intelligencer and
all other Democratic papers who have tried
to mislcad the public, to pablish it, so as to
put themselves right upon the record

IT is very amusing to listen to some OF
the Democratic candidates for nomination,
to hear how sanguine they are of success.
They do not even suspect that there is al
ready a ring" formed to manipulate mat
tcrs in the Convention, to defeat them and
place upon the ticket certain favoritcs, who
are pledged to continue the county affairs
in the same condition as has been done for
some i've or six years past. The handling
of some ninety thousand dollars taxes dur
ing the next year will not be overlooked
by the Ring candidates, and those outside
will not, likely, have the means TO reach
that point for nomination. BY present
appearances there viii! be as much corrup-
ton'in the next Democratic County Con-
ycntion as there was under the Crawford
county system. Many Of the candidates
who expect delegates instructed for them
selves, will find that they will either stay
AT home and others take their places, or
Will be left free to be handled by those who
now work the wines. We anticipate that
The next Democratic Convention will be
rather an unhappy one, unless the saugh-
tered candidates will quietly acquiesce with
the Ring, and lay down in their ''little
beds" to dream Of Office for another three
years 10 come.

that Treyino did not attack Saltillo in or

"a novel reason for Mexican commander

HORACE GREELEY NOMINATED. -
Strange as it may seem the Democratic
Convention nominated Horace Greeley,
one of the most radical Of Republicans for
President of the United States, ON Wedncs-
day last, on the first ballot. With this
nomination expired the old Democratic
party, whose leaders have sold out what
few principles they had to few sore heads,
who call themselves Liberal Republicans.
