Wiilppin£-lu« We shall he among the last to jbelieve that the rank and file of Tioga will submit to be led away from principle by the emissaries of parly. We are aw,ire that certain men who aspire to control the action of the masses at the polU, ond who thereby deny the ability of the people to think, and decide tor themselves, arc employing not only soft words and smooth speeches to win them back to the wor ship of party , but likewise threads of proscription in the future distribution of petty offices. If there arc any base enough to sell their votes for such a paltry considerations, they are to be pitied. They are not freemen, but slaves—more degraded than the Afri can, because free to accept the alternative of chains or reject it. Go up to the polls and give the lie to the saying which has been rung in our ears conlina. ally for the past three months-* 4 * The rank and file of the democratic party are governed by & clique of Wellaborough political wirepullers i” Freemen, un less you glory in such degradation, arise and vindh Cato your ol.iim to a more exalted character as men ••as free men. let m Reason Together- There is a saying among Ihc ignorant, that a man has a right to do as he please* with hi* own properly. A little reflection will convince the roost skeptical Dial this is not true. There is a like doctrine held by some men, that it is nobody's business how, or to what end they ex* ercise their privileges as freemen. A Utile reflect, ion will show the falsity of this application ol the doctrine. Now, the greater the privilege, the greater the' ewe that should be obicrved in Us exercise ; for the tame reason that men guard thousands of dollars with bolls and locks, while the poor man's purse is deemed safe without the guardianship of either. ll is every man’s privilege to wear his coat cut,to suit himself Whether he choose a “frock,” a “ dress," or a “ monkey jacket"—it 'affects neither his neighbor's welfare, nor that of his family, gen ctally speaking. It is also his privilege to vote lor a good or u bad measure, for a good or a bad man, or not at all; Die law confers this privilege, or is supposed to. It provides no penalty for cither care lessness or indifference as regards the exercise of the eight of suffrage. But the * higher law” is not so imperfect as the civil law ; fut the l.itUr, while it is said to bo {bund ed upon the'farmer,. i* ollener proved but a base im itation. “U i- usually highly alloyed with the base purposes of ij* designing framers. The higher law teaches that every privilege bestowed upon man, mast bo cxer ?iscd with due regard to the rights of others. Wring cannot be legalized —Pierce, Doug las, Bigler ai d Forney to the contrary, nolwilbstand log. If the (monalcr, party, chooses to present a bad man, or |t.bud measure for the support of tree men, it by no means follows that freemen are nnder bny obligations to perjure themselves in (he eye of ,(ho moral Ujv by yielding cither their suffrages No! it is tho!duly of each man to pause and reflect upon the oonfeqocncea of his action, lest ha involve whole communities in general ruin. Men should be the true representatives and advo. ; lose sterling principle* upon (he tiiamph depends the. happiness of every man, wo. :hild in this land.

For be calls the obnoxious feature of that infamous measure a “republican principle.” Are the freemen of Tioga ready to endorse such a lie at the ballot-box l We cannot believe it. Wo are no convert to the doctrine held by some, that in making Temperance the subject of legists tion it should be kept out of the arena of politics. As well mar a shipper propose to send a vessel to Liverpool or Havre without making use of the broad Atlantic os a medium of transit. The'sship Prohibition is yet on the stocks, far as this State is concerned, and tho agitated,eea of politics must bear her, if at. all, into her destined haven. Some knaves will ship in her, and leave her at the first qfflee* ial landing place, no doubt; but that is no good reason why her other passengers—a sorrowful host of weeping wives and wailing orphans— be kept watting on the hither side of the sea which must be crossed before their tears can be dried and their wails hue bed. Few reformatory measures can bo preserved in their original purity, whether using legislation as a mean*, or relying on (heir own intrinsic merits. Why is not oil legislation for tho suppression of Vice and Immorality mado subject to this objection ? As well might men say that a strict observance of the right of every individual to what his or her in" duslry has purchased, could be had without legisla tion, as that Prohibition should not make a stride to. wards success by being engrafted upon the policy of political parties. Suppose that the vice of gambling wos as alarm ingly prevalent as that of Intemperance : How ma ny, aside from those addicted to that vice would ob ject to legislating for its suppression 7 And who would be so silly as to advocate the election of men to make laws, and a man to approve them, all, base ly subservient to that vice, or non-committal in re. gird to it? No true frjend of morality, certainly. 11 would be a suicidal course. Yet, very many professed friends of Prohibition advocate tho voting for that measure without refer*, ence to the sentiments of the men into whose hands tho fate of tho measure is to bo given. It is said that no man, or parti/ is at stake. Granted: there la Something superior to either—there is a principle at stake •- and it is tho duty of every good temperance man to look to it that good men mo put forword to bailie for it There must be an issue made between men, or farewell to Prohibition. All who have read both Judge Pollock's and Gov. Bigler's letters to the Stale Temperance Convention, will have no difficulty io choosing between them. Poilock’qis clear,aLruUlbr.ward and manly; Bigler's U thc rjughly non-comtnillnl, though ho haa since talisficd John Chambers that he is friendly In Prohi lion. Such is the position of the gubernatorial can* didales presented lor the suffrages of temperance men. There is no room for dodging here. Those with whom temperance is more than pro/etfion t will prefer Pollock to Bigler. But those who “ have made long in the market places to be seen of men," will vole for Bigler. It has been asserted by the Bigler press that there is no difference in the sentiment of the letters in queMion. As well might they say that there is no difference between li{»hl and darkness. We trust that every lover of honor and slraitfor* waidncea in politics us well as in business, will not (ail lo contrast Mr. Baldwin's public pledge, and the Idler of his opponent, Mr. Ryon, published in (he early part of the campaign, in regard lo (be use of their voles and influence, respectively, in the elec tion of a Chief Magistrate of lids Stale, and also in regard to Prohibition. Jn the first, will bo (bund on open avowal of determined hostility to Slavery and Intemperance, and nn honest repudiation of any i man fur office who is not openly and unequivocally opposed to the repeal of the M imouri Compromise. Tn the Utter, wo find a repudiation of the repeal of (hat restriction, but a repudiation without even an apology for a backbone in it. He does not back up the Ist resolution adopted in the Convention that nominated him, by repudiating the avowed Jricoda of that measure, of whom Gov. Bigler is one of the first He leaves ibis all-important point untouched. Why did fie dodge this point? Simply, because he desired to pursue a course which should not ren der him obnoxious (o the Nebraska wing of the par ty, whose support he would stoop to ask while he re pudiated their governing principle. It is vouched for.by prominent Nebraska men, that fie is privately pledged to go for Bigler.' On'the .other hand. It is boldly assorted by anti-Ncbraska men that he is pledged to go for Pollock. Candor compels us to acknowledge thsf both par ties undoubtedly speak the truth.- That he has two fates—a Bigler face and a Pollock fucb—is beyond a question. And this is the man ‘that asks to rep resent the freemen of Tioga in the LcgbdslOre! Temperance men, where is your security that ho will be (rue to the cause of Prohibition 7 ~ You have none. Remember that the eau*e must h&ve sleepless friends in Harrisburg, even though the peo ple sanction th* measure by an overwhelming vote.

Thorn,was a great cunlest between Prcedoin and Despotism in the world, liu rnpe was shaken to her center with the vio lence of the strife, and despots were trembling for the stability of their thrones. In Nicho las we behuld the embodiment of all that is dpicstubie in despotism, all that is abhorcnl in 4he sight of men trained in the home of Freedom.. In obedience to this feeling in some degree, wo behold France and England joining hands and interests to hurl back upon ibe Autocrat the ruin he meditated for the Turkish Empire. Already Poland lay pros trate beneath his iron heel, and Hungary wpa cheated of the price of her blood by the spmo merciless po-ver. When he is crushed, wo shall hear the jqbiUnt shout of liberty cortjntg up from Ihj* down-trodden millions pit Europe. When Nicholas is bea ten dowp, Europe is redeemed. In America,'likewise, ihere is a power, not clad in the velstmcnls pf Aulpcratic splendor, but as i(on-iirmed, ns despotic and as grasp-- jng in js nature. Slavery has planted us fool upon .free-soil, and aims at nothing less (hao'The overthrow of our liberties, nnd the prostitution ol our vast territories to the ftai|- psl wrong that ever mocked at the genius of Humanity. Hesaid that slavery repieseuted ,ibe frightful principle of despotism striving to-day with the liberties of America, It-was |u power that brought its arm to bear upon imen ; it held to the rig'ht of property in flesh and blood fashioned in its Creators image, chatteiizcd immortality, nnd sought to blot out the stamp ol hoinaiiliv wtiiet, ; K-.it impressed upon the beans of his iuleltrgeni creatures. The subserviency of freemen to ibis power was humiliating. Was Ibe Con stitution of the, United Spites a pro-slavery document ? He repelled the charge tvi'h scorn, Hu would go back to ibe Revolution, j he would points to its martyrs nnd ask if ihere was one who had been a defender of ehallelizing immortal souls. Slavery had no defenders at that period. Then it was that the Declaration of Independence was written, mid was laid as ibe corner-stone, the broad nnd safe foundation of our liberties. Ii ut terly repudiated the right of one man, or one notion to oppress another. He referred to Washington—a slaveholder, yet not no npnlo. gist, nor n defender of Slavery, but n di pin re rof its existence. The words of Washing ton on this subject should sink deep iuiu hearts of Ircemen, •Jefferson, he said, had been claimed ns the defender of Slavery. It was false—history bore a brighter and belter record of that great nnd good man. It was when he was treatin'; on ibis question that he stud-—“ I tremble for my country when I think that God is just,. l " He said that he was a Jeflbrsoniao Democrat ; that names were nothing-—principles every thing. That the National Administration was solemnly pledged to tho interests of the South. It was evident to him who examined the records of its nets. To sustain, or coun tenance the Administration, was to give all our-influence to the opptessur, and to stand before the people un advocate of 'the worst species of despotism. -The only wny to get at tt.man’s principles was by scrutinizing his actions, nnd with a knowledge of his princi ples. it was easy toi givo bis character. By tin’s rule the Administration and its suppor ters should be judged. He said that the Ad. ministration of this State was an open sup porter of the National Administration, and fully endorsed its subserviency to the slave power. Democracy, said he, utterly repudiates the idea that any man, or set of men has the right to needlessly, crush a worm, much less to degrade aporiiou of God's creatures to the condition of brutes. It acknowledged no culpability for the accidents of color, or con dition, where the latter was involuntary ; but Slavery was ihh reverse of this, fiir it tieatg the weak as mere..chaltels, to be bought and sold like cattle. Democracy and Slavery in "juxtaposition mocked the sight, and when spoken, grated harshly upon the ear. The fathers of the country never recognized the right of mn'h' io chnltelize his brother. He was nol'of those who think that slavery-has nothing to' do! with us here at the North. It had everything’to do with us'j by folding ourhandsj we ; should become slaves, find he wanted ho slaves at the North; but-nierk, who would go up to the ballot-box uni rammeled.

Compromising with Slavery was like an .accommodation with ft highwayman of whom we purchase life with our purses. If .was wrong to cede anything to Slavery, for it overwhelms us with ruin in return. He pointed to California, which, with a free Constitution, knocked'for admission into the Union. Was she admitted 1 No! for nine Idnft months she wailed if suppliant, at a door which the slave power refused to open. She had to wait until ihe price of her admis sion was fixed. That price was the Fugitive Slave Law, an abomination, destroying the validity of the hnbeus corpus and repudiating. I rial by jury. Through the base sycophancy' and meanness of Northern men ibis thing was accomplished. Power, shid he, either iri a despot or slave holder never con bo satisfied, lls lust is in satiate. The Missouri Compromise became obnoxious to the South—it spoke, and North ern men did (ho deed. By that compact, in all territory north of 36 deg. 30 min. Slave ry was forever prohibited! But the political definition of the word “ forever,” he said, was “ forever—uniil Ihe Souih wished it ended.” (The Judge here introduced an an ecdote aptly illustnling this point, and show ing that when the law of a slaveholding State and the law of God conflict, the Sure law is considered the higher law.) He wrfs aware that Dougins and thjp friends of his bill, pro nounced ihe Missouri restriction unconstitu tional ; but such men ns J. Q. Adarfis, Henry Clay, William Wirt, and other master spirits, had pronounced it constitutional. He abode by their decision. He then proceeded lo discuss the subject of “ popular sovereignty.” Ha subscribed Id that ooclrine when applied to a Slate, but such a thing could not exist in a territory. If was a pi’iable subterfuge of pro-elavery men. Anv lawyer, said he, who contrnds ih.it popular sovereignty ran obtain in a ter ritory should close hi? books forever. The pretence is absurd. Tile people of a territo ry have not the power lo elect either a gover nor or judge. A territorial legislature may enact a law, the Governor may sign it ; but is it a law therefore? No; for Congress Ins power lo repeal that act by its- own. Therefore, as all its powers were granted by Congress, popular sovereignly cannot exist in a territory, but only in a sovereign Slate. He nexi took tip the plea of non-interven tion, pul forward by the friends of Slavery extension. Il menus, said he, that slavery has a right lo enter those territories, since their constitution admits it, and a local legis. laturo has m power lo expel if. The asser tion that the eluViate and soil of that territory render il impossible that slavery should ever be 'established there, said he, may be true; bui if so, if nature bids slavery back from that soil, why did the Democratic putty re fuse to listen to the voice of God speaking through nature, hy opening Ihe way for Ihe establishment of Slavery there ? There were frauds connected uuh the repeal of the Mis souri Comprumi-f’, which, when exposed, would make‘the ears ol Northern men 'ingle. He 'hen udverlbd m the baneful influence of slave labor updn free, and said that when the giant of Free )abbr was brought tn.o firfl and uninterrupted' competition with Simp labor, Slavery trulsi go down. The South dreaded this competition, and would work with all their midtl to drive out free labor from Kansas. freemen of the North must arise nnd hssfn their rights, at all risks, or become slaves tlemselvcs. Was Pennsylvania so far north that she had no voice to infuence the action of Con gress? No. Hut 'Ghv. Bigler stood up with the the occasion demanded, nnd signified his disapprobation of the Kan sas bill it never would have become a blot upon our legislative records. It was-in the power of ihe Democratic parly of this Slate to have crushed Ihe monster, but it refused to sfrike. I he Judge then spoke of the past policy of Pennsylvania, in regard to the Public Works: 'I hose, he said, were the subjects of the most stupendous-frauds. The' report of the Canal Board for the last year showed a surplus ol expense over and above the reve nue of the mu in linh, of §452,000, and upon the other branches; still another ol 8350,000, besides 850,000, saijkfo have been stolen by. unknown persons. 'These defects had to be made up' by fhe tax-pavers. The Public Works’ had chSf §87,000,000. The whole revenue collected from them amounted ho only 825,000,000—tax-payers had paid the balance, Hd' Whs in favor of selling the Public Works and applying the proceeds to the paymfent of the Public debt.
