An error as to figures last week crept
into our table of the bids made for the new
county loan Of twenty-five thousand dollars.
As printed Mr. II J. Roberts was made to
offer premium of 3-1O rer cent for s21 800.
whereas the premium should have appeared
as 1 Is 10 per cent. for the amount stated. We
make this correction for the reason that the
Johnstowu Savings Bank proposed to take
the entire loan OF s25, 600 at ~ per cent.

Hon. L. d. Woodruff editor of the Dem
Ocrat, and Nathaniel Horne, Esq, both of
JohnstOwn, were here on Monday last, and
didn't hestats to say that they were rival
candidates for Assembly and would seek the
nomination at the next Democratic primary
election. As Mr. Woodruff has already serv-
ed the people Of Cambria county faithfully
and ntelligently at Harrisburg, and as Mr..
Horne is admitted TO be one Of the most ca
pable men in the county, and would 20 doubt
make an excellent member of the Legislature,
nothing we could say would add TO the high
repute in which both are held by their fellow
citizens.
