' JlarriabWg, March Q; IBIO. Mb. Webb. Dear Sir The nominations for Judges have just coma into the Senate. Ilia Ex cellency, it seems, knows better who would is acceptable to Columbia County than wc do' ourselves, ho has, therefore, nominated WILLIAM DONALDSON, ' cf Danville, and GEORGE 51 ACE, of Berwick. Yours, in hastet We know nc when wo havo been more Surprised than we were upon the receipt of the above letter. Surpriaed,because we be lieved the centre portion of the- count)' cnti--.i-j . ...Wt. one or utiT JHugi., lairaa for an appointment under the pre, ent state administration had heretofore fceen entirely overlooked or disregarded.- a EverT appointment un -- lurs by the Govsrnof, or by the Canal Cbmir.ts .ioners.havinc been exclusively in tho Dan tUlo intefest, ttnti that too. from the two ex tome of the county. Surprised) because ire firmly believed from our own know of the feelings of the people! the loca- 'lion of the county, and from what had been . - l u mnA authority, that "wo gam s- " t,i tr Vnve one near the centre .tmsed,. because we knew tho individuals ...minute!, had but few names from the il.nir anolieation indeed, ono or them had boasted, that he m trmit the people of tho county to ..stain him, as he was sore of the aid cf the Danville faction, and of such an tnteiest abroad, as would render his nomination citato, whatever might be said aEaiust trim by the people m tho bounty our- rl.i1. because one of the nominees nau Sever been mentioned in the county irl con taction with the office, and who was know to bo 0 decided opponent of the Governor. 'Surprised, because wo firmly belipvcj ind .... 1 r.,..r,,1 nnr nninion from a kno ledge of iho feelings of a large majority ol 'the citizens of the county Hint the V"on aelected are vastly more Unpopular, and 4,tnat their appointment will give far less sal ir...; itian that of any other two on the ItlUVIIVtM - " " known, both at home tod at Harrisburg, thatn majority of tho clcptar bf this county are Germans, and that thoy ire almost to a maaj supporters of Governor Porter and of the democratic party, and who had claimed, and, we think, justly claimed, that one of tl.etn should havo beeri a man whonl they could approacli in their own language, and who would have bfifcii an interpreter be tween them and the court. But the Dan ville faction in this, aa in every thing else, have entirely disregarded all other" considc rationn -all other claims beeddso they would iconflict with their selfish and exclu sive policy. They havo succeeded, by a dopting their old game of deception and trickery, elander and defamation, to riot on ly deprive the German population of a re presentation on the bench; but havo smoth ered the voice of at led St nine-tenths of the people of the county, anii pldced the judges at 111 e two extremes, in lite hands' of two meniwhoih they can use to their hearts eon tent. "We 'arin repeat, that we wife Bur prised, not at tlio means made use of by the Danville-faction to defeat an appointment in tho centre; but that tho Governor, whom we respect for his political principles, and sttslaiucd for his correctness, firmness and decision in other matters, should have al lowed himself to havo been moved from the just course i'ri relation to these appointmtuts which we have reason to think and believe he at onetime thought it his duty to pursue, by thb raisrbprbsentatioris attd false-hearted slorie bf tho faction at the lower end of tho county Dut so it is, and tho voice of tho centre' his again been thrust aside to make room for llioir favoiitcs and sycophants: Wo have nbw nothing left to us but to mak ourselvco heard through tho ballot boxes; for id long aa wo give tho Danville juntojnfiuciice by electing them to posta df honor, so long they will use it td tho injury of a majoi-ity of the county. Wo havo three-fourths of the county with us, let us then unite and proclaim to this Danville faction; in a voice not to be misunderstood, that .we will not any longer bo subject to their whims and caprices, or bs made hew ers of Wood utid drawers of wxttr for' their convenience; u As a further instance of the hollow heartednoss of tho professions of tho wretch- m tvlin r.nrlortakft.-lo Ibad . tMlr-.ri,iUitC, k.ii cano ieare ol the ititer;i- or it.- j. peoplo, we transcribe the folhwin netilidn which was drawn up by Ii,nry Webb, uuuicu uy nenrv web'o. ami i , culating under his direclioas for eicna.
