November glow Of the sun,
And meadow and hillside hearken and wait
TIL the lingering day be done.
The iron wheels. that nightly rush
In the factories, hold their breath:
On city and village there rests a hush
Like the awful hush of death.
Ocean and prairie are listening,
Valley and mountain peak;
Fer the potent voice Of the nations king
II heard when the people speak.
From hearts unnumbered the incense of prayer
Arises before the Lord,
That wisdom and strength may BE- theirs to dare
To utter righteous word.
o. country, that sittest between two seas,
With the tropics under thy feet,
And thy hot brow famed BY the Arctic breeze,
The mandate IL sure and fleet

The Lord hath nightly wrought
Never In vain did martyr die,
Nor In vain has patriot fought.
The old time conflict IL once more n,
That has ragged since earth began,

ga NHGGER IN TIE FENCES,

Our readers will not be surprised to learn
that DavidKresge one ofthe proprietors ofthe
low brothel at Welssport, made the affidavit
upon which the election of Sheriff Koons
was to have been contested, by Harry
Morthimer and John Kline.-Coal Gazette
of last week.
When We first heard OF the remonstrance
against the granting of license to Messrs.
Behler * Kresge, it struck us that perhaps
there was something wrong politically with
tue gentleman who had made that rcmons-
trance, and now the blue-light cast upon the
subject by the above extract from the Coal
Gazette of last week convinces us that we
were not mistaken in our judgment. From
beginning to end the above paragraph is a
base, lying slander. In the first place there
is no such man as Dauid Kresge in Weiss
port. Next, the editor of the Gazette speaks
of the Fort Allen House as "a low brothel.'
How does he know that it is or was broth
ell! Did he drop his church membership
tor the nonce and visit that house for the
purpose of making the discovery? lie does
not say that he knows it from report, but
makes it as a positive assertion from his
own knowledge. He then says that "the af-
fidavit upon which the election of Sheriff
Koons was to have been contested by Harry
Mortimer and John Kline was obtained
from the said Kresge." Ifthe editor of the
Gazette is not a TOOL himself he must at
least suppose that the readers of his half
shell sheet are, when he wishes them TO
suppose that the affidavit made by Daniel
Kresge furnished ground for contest of the
election of Thomas Koons. We knew moth =
ing of the affair until, in passing our office,
Mr.. Kresge was met by Mr.. Kline and in
yited into our sanctum, where he made the
statement, voluntarily, and swore to it be-
fore II. A. Beltz, one Of our Justices of the
Peace. Why it has not been brought to
the notice of the proper authorities we know
not. Perhaps the editor of the Gazette can
tell? We incline to the opinion that the
machine managers of the Gazette are un-
fortunate in the selection of a grinder for
their organ in this county; it had been far
better for them had this subject never been
brooched, because it naturally leads to the
question If the Fort Allen House was the
"fearful nuisance" represented by the Ga
zette, why was the prosecution not instituted
before the recent election, and previous To
the affidavit made by Daniel Kresge, that
Thomas Koons promised to put his son in
the broom business if he, Daniel Kresge,
would vote and work for his, Thomas
Koons election? VIII the blue-light shed
lustre upon this subject? We await his re-
ply,

truction overtalscs them even before they are

In an association Of this kind II would be
the duty Of the officers to investigate and as
certain such facts as to guard against being
defreuded BY swindlers and sharpers who
traverse the country and do m extensive
business by defrauding unsuspccting farmers.
A constant reliance on the continuity would
benefit all. Officers would be chosen to serve
without salaries, and the best men required
to assume these duties in rotation, and the
company be at no other official expense than
such os actual outlay in travelling on busl-
ness for the association, etc. There would
then be no treasury 10 rob and no incentive
to those who arc born with hsukerlng for
office and are innate demagogues. The ma
jority would always determine the line of
action to be pursued In all matters affecting
the welfare Of the association.
The very best of breeding stock could be
owned by such an association, and MEM
Der best fitted for the business selected TO
take charge of it. They could afford to en-
ploy a specialist TO plant, prunc and direct
the proper care Of orchards and vineyards,
and the gathering and preparation of fruit
for market An expert dairyman could be
employed to insure the best dairy products
at the least cost Numerous similar advan-
tages would accrue to an association of in
teliigent farmers banded together for mutual
profit, which would widen by experience
every succeeding year. Wrong i,
stiif-necked, ignorant men would have TO
be excluded from such an association. A
man who doesn't ego anything on book
farming" and never reads an agricultural
journal, is far below the plane of such an
association, and could mover be q desirable
or profitable member.
Tho influence Of such an association in its
immediate neighborhood would be many
times greater than its members could exert,
acting singly, and in many directions, nota-
bly, in buying and selling, and socially.
Men, single handed, cannot effect much,
compared to the results that may be achiev-
ed by combining their efforts. ain union
there is strength" is an old and true maxim

Finance Question: Ohio'S nei0 Seaator.-

etc, etc.
WASHINGTON, d. c., Jan. "a, 1850.
The House Committee on Appropriations
have reported bill appropriating 100000
for the pay Of U. S. Marshals and Deputy
Marshals for the current fiscal year. This
is IN nearly every respect the same bill which
President Hayes vetoed during the extra
session, because it contained a clause pro-
hibiting the payment of Marshals and their
Deputies appointed in pursuance of the
Electiol laws Of the Federal Government.
There will Lc undoubtedly considerable dis
cussion again " ben the bill comes up for
action. The finance question still continues
to agitate our legislators. Senator Beck spoke
in strong condemnation Of thc negotiation
Of bonds through syndicates, the Tariff and
Navigation laws, the assistance of railway
companies by means Of land grants, the Ma
tional banks and also what he termed the
"money power" which is something of a fear
lul nature existing in New York. There has
been an effort made in the Banking and
Currency Committee to stave off the consid-
Grafton of all bills, s,resolutions, petitions, &C.,
affecting the volume Of the currency until
next December. 1t would not stand FIRE and
was voted down. Mr.. Chittenden of N. Y,
delivered a speech in favor Of abolishing the
legal tender quality of the greenback. This
proposition is to buy up and destroy the
greenbacks as rapidly as would be consistent
with safety and also he is in favor of stop
| ping the coinage Of the silver dollar. In
making his speech he took position in tn,
House, as he expressed it "on the edge of the
Greenbaek lion den," being surrounded by
the members Of Congress who are regarded
as the principal Greenbaek representatives.

The U. s. Senate Tuesday resumed the
consideration of Mr.. Bayard's resolution
withdrawing the compulsory legal tender
power of the United States notes, and Mr..
Bayard spoke in support of it. In the course
! of his speech he said his object in urging the
adoption of the present resolution was to
bring about an actual resumption Of specie
payments. Whatever else might be effected
by the resolution was secondary and merely
Incidental to this one cardinal object. Sound
prosperity must rest on sound basis, and
real money is the only sound currency. To

The great railway consultations, by which
the Louisville and Nashville road have
come to control a line from Chicago to the
Gulf, and from the Mississippi Valley to the
Atlantic Coast, with many intermediate and
minor roads, especially in Tennessee, Ken
lucky and the Southwest, is exciting great
comment and anxiety among thinking men,
as well as among Railroad officials general
ly. The Sage-Dillon-G Gould clique combina-
ton running from the east by the Wabash
line to the west and south, over the Mis-
souri, and Kansas Pacific, and 10 the south
by the Kansas and Texas, and the Texas
Pacific, also produce some excitement. 1t is
predicted by some that Congress will be
compelled to deal with these questions grow
ing out of such great absorption of property
by coporations. In the absence Of great po-
litical issues, it is also predicted that the con-
trolling and ownership by the Government
of railways as well as telegraphs, and their
working and management on the principal
of the Postal services, is one of the great
questions of the future.

"A controversy between the Reading
Railroad and the Internal Revenue De-
partment as to the liability Of the company
to ray theUnitedStates tax of Il per cent. on
circulating notes upon its wages certificates,
resulted Monday in seizure of part of the
eompany's rolling stock The Internal
Revenue officials seized % locomotives at
Port Richmont, intending 10 collect the tax
out of them. The seizure will result in
lawsuit, by which the liability of the COM
pany TO pay the tax, Of which there are
doubts, will be determined. Since the above
was in type We learn that Judge Elcock, of

preliminary injunction restraining the U. S.
