Mr. Letcher, the Democratic candidate, like all men of marked individuality, has a number of personal enemies uho stop at nothing that may tend to secure his defeat.— i>ii the oilier hand, Mr. Goggin, the Opposition candidate, is also warmly opposed on personal grounds. In such a contest, however, the Opposition, owing to their unscrupulousness, are generally the gainers. The chivalric democracy ot the Old Dominion, magnanimous ir Vj.p'm.T.ts. Not to with the opposition. No trick -o mean, no fahehood so atrocious, but ibey at once resort l> •, if in th.-ir estima tion it will damage the prospects of the Democratic candidate. From such promises .i* these, one would naturally conclude that Ihe Democracy of Virginia will he defeated. But we have an abiding laith in the intelligence and < /'.l-hi-aded-m ; of the Virginia people, and, therefore, have no fears f.r the result The strength of the Opposition candidate, lies in the tact that he is a stave-holder arid in a!i his iwchfs arrogate* to himself the champion ship of the "peculiar irisfitutif>n.** Hence his election would he, if possible, a severer .rebuff to the f J lack Republicans, than even the success of his Democratic opponent. More than this, it would be the certain ruin of the Black Republican party, inasmuch as il would place <uttenilen and Rell in a position to dictate terms to them in the corning contest for the Presidency. Should (.'oggin b elected, Se ward and Weed and Ureely and the rest of the (Rack Republican leaders, will be compel led to play second fiddle to the Southern Know- Xothings, or set up independently lor them selves, as they did in 1856. Jn either event, the defeat of their party would be inevitable. So, should the Opposition carry Virginia, the Democracy will not lose a single pawn on the Presidential chess-board, by the victory of their opponents.

Finding that the labors of their local politicians, are not suffi cient to accomplish their ends, the Abolitionists of this county are summoning to their aid the assistance of the New York Tribune, which paper they are now scattering broadcast among the good citizens of this neighboihood. The spirit of conservatism, and the strong and un varying attachment to the Union, which have always characterized our people, compel the Abolitionists to this last desperate resort. Now, we have no objection to their circulating the Tribune, or any other of their newspaper or gans, so long as they do it like men, in the light of day, and not sneakingly and clandes tinely as they have been doing in some parts of this county. We are for free discussion— "freedom of thought and opinion" is our motto, and we shall never deny it, or prove false to it. Democracy never appears more beautiful than in the broad sunlight of Truth. Its principles need no "dark lantern" to give them a seeming of correctness. Hut whilst we are the advo cates of a free press, we are decidedly opposed to all secret appliances of its power—to all clandestine operations on the part of those cir culating its issues—for if these things be done, there is no freedom of discussion, the opportu nity not being given to combat the doctiines of the sheet secretly circulated. It is but a new version of the trickoiy ot know-Notliingism, to insinuate into the hands ol an unsuspecting citizen, a partizan newspaper filled with specious falsehoods which he may never see contradicted unless he subscribe to some other partisan journal of opposite politics. We are informed that in Napier and Ju niata townships, the Abolitionists are making it a regular business to supply Democratsgro/is with copies of the New York Tribune. We I have no doubt that such is the case irw other ! parts of the county. Their object in doing this, is apparent. The New York Tribune is j full of sugar coated lies and they think to 'lt- I ceive the people by spreading them before them, But they reckon without their host. "j jje stur dy yeomanry of Bedford county, are too in te! and w:_ u , 1S more, they are too pa ,r'°'.: .C. ever to be misled by Abolition fanatics, or Know Nothing wire-pullers. We say, therefore, let the Tribune be read by all who receive it. Scan its pages carefully. Note its disunion tendencies and its proclivity toward "negro equality.*' Remember, too, when you read it, that its editor, Horace Greeley, has been the advocate of Fourierism, of Fiee Love, of Abolitionism and of almost every disgraceful ism tha* has sprung up to degrade and demor alize society for the last twenty years. He is the same Greeley who but recently stigmatised ; laboring men as FOOR WHITE TRASH," "exceedingly tenacious of a distinction which enables them to take rank of the most accom plished and wealthy MEN OF COLOR !" OPPOSITION HARMONICS. In our last issue we made a brief a eiwiMj 'rr RK PPWRffitaole organization, the | "Opposition" | arty in Pennsylvania. Since J then we have had some additional evidence of j the discordant feeling existing among the fac- I lions of winch that parly (?) m .composed ; and it now seems almost certain that theco-ali tion which was last year entered into by those factious, will soon be disrupted info various I .. didinct an ! separate organizitiorfl. We do not | pretend to predict when this disruption will 1 occur, but (unless the "cohesive power of i public plunder" prove stronger than their love 1 of principle) the Black Republican am! Know | Nothing parties v.ill ere long he as irreconcila i bly inimical to each other as they now severally | are to •their mutual opponent, the National I Democracy. There is a strong leaven of old ! Silver Gray Whiggery in the Opposition loaf, < : itid that haven has always hc**n disgustinar to the taste of the Seward-ites. The latter have the power to reject this dose so nauseous to their appetite, and it is evident that they in tend to do it at the first opportunity. Silver Gray-ism is aware of the intentions of the Seward-ites, and is busily preparing to meet i (hern half-way. It cails a "Straight American" | State Convention, to which delegates are elected from a number of counties in various sections I of the Slate. It publicly announces its purpose ! to re-organize the American party. Jt elects "Straight American" delegates to the "Opposi tion" Convention which is to meet in June, and quarrels with the "Woolly Heads" wherever they dare to assert the doctrines peculiar to their creed. Hence there is a prospect of a very pretty row between the two wings of the Opposition, and if they don't have a nice little i war among themselves, it will not be because they love each other too much, hut because neither of them has the courage to tell the other what it thinks of its opponent. The Philadelphia Daily A"eu:s, ere while the organ of the "Straight Americans" ol this State, but lately in partnership with the Black Republicans, has the following editorial on the American State Convention : "The fulljumg call for an American Slate Convention, lias been issued from Pittsburg, and has its origin with the Americans of the county of Allegheny : At a mass Meeting of the Americans of Alleghe ny county, held at Pittsburg on Tuesday, April 2lith, Is.VJ, it was unanimously resolved that vve, the Americans of Allegheny county, in Mass Conven tion assembled, earnestly request the Americans throughout ttie State ot Pennsylvania, to meet in their respective counties and elect delegates, equal in number to their representatives in the State I.egislal lire, to meet in their respective counties an t elect delegates, equal in number to their representatives in the State Legislature, to meet in Siate 4 Convention, at Harrisburg, in the Hall of the House on Wednesday, the 23th day of May, IS-I!).] at 10 o'clock A.

We notice that delegates hive already been chosen {lrom the counties of A -gheny, Westmoreland, [Armstrong, Washington, Green, Butler, , Lawrence, Dauphin, and Cumberland-and that measures are being adipted to elect delegates from most of the other counties in the State, our own included. Wo doubt not but those who may attend this Convention will so act as to produce results which shall he conducive to ! the success of those conservative principles I upon which the institutes of our country are ! based, and to promote tint American sentiment of nationality which inspired our fathers, and for the establishment of which the Ameti can party was formed.*' It will be seen from the JVew s, article that the "American'' contagion las spread considerably, and that it has taken hld in some of the strongest Opposition districts in the State. YY e close our reflections upfn tfiis melancholy subject, by subjoining the telegraphic account of the proceedings of the ["People's ' Conven ' lion in Montgomery county. Truly our oppo | ncnts are in a sorry plight.

"MONSIEUR TON SON CO.Y T £ AGAIN" , The redoubtable ed' ltor 0 f t h e Bkir County . 0 :ig, a second article in defence of ! the Airly trick at which we caught him a few i weeks ago. His former effort to extricate ; himself from his ugly predicament, was a weak and flimsy aiTair, b\;t, ye gods ! what a misera i ble abortion is his last' Not a line—not a [word —does he dare to write concerning the real matter at issue between hinselt and the Gazette. All that he ventures upon, is the hackneyed, threadbare abuse ol the National Administration, which has been in the mouth ;of every fledgling Opposition demagogue, for the last year and a half. What in the name i ol all that is logical, has the National Admtn- D istration to do with the importation ot setd | wheat ? Could MR. BUCHANAN prevent such J importation, if he desired to do so ? Why, j if the Government were to lay an embargo ; such as the BV.fg seerr.s to think it should, every Opposition dog,—mongrel, puppy, whelp and i hound—would velp till the crack of doom, about the tyranny and despotism of our National | tulers. The Whig man says he makes "politi- I cai capital, out .of *c; -.tn ' fig!.', say we, but you must be rather unsuccess ful in that branch of BUSINESS, MR. WHIG, or you would't try to make "political capital" out of the importation of a few thousand busheL of seed-wheat. Jut think of it !

The j bidd'Cig for contracts, was very lively, some fifty or sixty contractors being in attendance. The contract for the whole of the road let (12 j miles) was given to COLLINS, DULL k Co., at the sum of $64,00 Q. The work is to be com menced on the Ith day of June, and to be fin ished by the first of January. Among other distinguished contractors present at the lettiug, we noticed MAJ. JAMISON, of Westmoreland county, MR. BLAIR, of Wayne, MR. WIL SON, of Centre, and MR. COWAN, of Harris burg.

TIIE MORNING PENNSYLVANIA*. — We neg lected, last week, to notice the gratifying fact that HON. NIMROD STRICKLAND, late Canal Commissioner, has become the editor of the Philadelphia Pennsylvanian. Judge Strick land wields an able pen, and his character as a man and a Democrat, is unblemished. Under his editorship, the old Pennsylvanian is bound to succeed. Philadelphia .trgus, published by Jo. SEVERNS &. Co., has been re-changed to an evening paper and enlarged to the general size ol the Philadelphia dailies. The Argus has always been a reliable Democratic journal and as a newspaper is unsurpassed. Success to the "Evening Argus !" week we paid a "flying visit" to the Springs, and found everything about the buildings Presenting quite an agreeable and in viting ar.pearance. We, also, visited the.gar den be longing to the Springs, which is under the care of Mr. John Fleming, and judging from the large quantity of all kinds of vege tables there, (which are now ready for table use, as we have reason to know,) the Company were certainly fortunate in procuring a gar dener in the person ot Mr. Fleming.

The steamship City of Baltimore passed off Cape Race yesterday morning, and was inter : cepted by the news yacht of the Associated Press, by which means the dispatches prepared jy the Liverpool agent were obtained. The dates are from London and Liverpool, to Wedne..lay afternoon, the 11th instant, bum"- five days later. There had been no material change in politi- I cal affairs, and the condition of matters in l'aly ; remained as they were when the Canada j sailed. ihe latest intelligence from the seat of war : received at London on the day the City of Bal timore sailed, Gates that there had been no | action of moment between the hostile armies. ! The movements of the Austrians are viewed as j inexplicable by Hie London press, and their ' conjectures are variable. Some can only ac count tor their dilatory movements by the sup position that the unfavorable weather has pre vented the General-in-Chief from carr\iri"out the original plan of the campaign. Their lat< st movements indicate the greatest indecision, positions being taken and then aban doned without any apparent motive. Up to the last accounts heavy rains continued to fall, carrying nut the desigus of the Sardinians to overflow the country arid thereby dbtract the movements of the Austrians. A Vienna bulletin says that the Austrian troops are awaiting better weather before assu ming tiie offensive. The Sardinian commander, Gen. Marmora has made the river his strategetical line. The Emperor and Prince Napoleon left Paris fti r Genoa on the 10th. The Empress Eugenie was proclaimed Regpnt during the absence of the Emperor, according to the previous ar rangement. The Emperor will assume the command of the allied forces in Sardinia. The Sardinian Government are preparing a magnificent reception for Napoleon on his "ar rival at Genoa. Marshal C'anrobert, the French Genera!, is directing the operations o! the allies from Alessandria. 1 here is said to be much sickness amon the Austrian troops, as was expected Irom the & bad weather and the overflowing condition of the country to which their movements have so far been confined. The Austrians are fortifying their positions along the line of the river Sesia. The Empe ror is making constant additions to his reserve and there will soon be 750,000 men under arms. The Emperor had declared Ancona, on the Adriatic, in a state of siege, but the Pope pro tested arirt a reconsideration of the matter was promised. The French army at Rome is to be increased and placed on a war footing. The English Parliamentary elections had been almost concluded. The Ministerial gain was variously estimated by the English press at from 19 to 28 members. The Paris Atonitcur denies the report that the French armv is about to concentrate on the Rhine. THE LATEST MOVEMENTS OF THE AUSTRIAN'S. TURIN, May 11.—The Austrians are re crossing the river Sesia in haste. MARSEILLES, Wednesdaj' evening.—The Emperor arrived here at midday CJI route. He embarked on board the Horter.se, where he received the city authorities and lelt in the afternoon. It was said in Paris that the Emperor ex pects to be at Milan by the end of May or be ginning of June. LONDON, Thursday.—ln the London Times it is said that the continued suspense between the hostile forces in Italy, excites daily, now conjectures. The condition of Turkey has also been a sub ject of comment. Marshal Canrobeit has issued orders of the day to the troops under bis command at Alessandria, concluding in a spirited and war like tone. A despatch from Rome has been sent to the Pope's Nuncio to leave Florence. The Austrian war brig Triton had been ac cidentally blown tip while the commander of the vessel was in shore. The number of dead, wounded and missing was estimated at about eighty. Another report says that part of the crew were ashore when the explosion took place, and the number killed was only four. TURIN, May 11, 10 o'clock, A. M.—On reaching\Yercetti the Austrians ceased their retrograde movements. To-day they rr ado an excursion towards Porsara. Yesterday two batteries and thiry caits, with sick and woun ded, passed through Gravellona. Count Cavour leaves to-day to meet the Em peror Napoleon at Genoa. PARIS, May 12.—The .Moniteur publishes the following telegram : ROME, May 10.—According to orders from i Vienna, the state of siege has been raised at Ancona, and the light-house is again lit. VIENNA, May 20.—The Archduke is dead. LIVERPOOL BREADSTUFF MARKET. — The cir culars quote a considerable decline on all quali ties of breadstuff?. Messrs.

An attempt to build up a new Democratic party under '.lie dignified title of the ''States Rights Democracywith Forney as leader, has proven the most dismal political failure of the times. It would really be a work ot charity, says the Patriot and Union, for some respectable Democratic paper to bestow a word of encouragement upon the ragged, bald, and crippled thing. The Anti-Lecompton j press of the State refuses to acknowledge it, instead of giving the encouragement and j support which were anticipated by the projec : tors ot the movement, are unsparing in their , 1 blows. Of this class of Democratic newspa ! pers, the Somerset Democrot is among the most ; able and vigorous. In commenting with | deserved severity upon the proceedings at Altoona, it administers the toliowing advice \ ' ■■ -'-> v tfiat it is ins intention ml this Slate Fights Democratic party, when the ; proper time arrives, to make an energetic effort j to secure a majority of delegates to the next 4th jof March Convention. To this we have no f objection. Put we tell them now, in advance, tint unleSs they roll up their sleeves and go 11 zealously to work for the success of the regulatly nominated Democratic State Ticket ■ j at the next election, they will find themselves , nowhere when these delegates come to be chosen. No disorganizing movement can carry the Anti-Lecomr ton sentiment of the State with it, and the sooner the leaders of this Democratic State Kights faction are made aware of this fact perhaps the better. There is a vast difference between a genuine Anti- I.ecompton Democrat, and a bogus one who makes it his business to endeavor to defeat the i regular party organization, and who gives 'aid and comfort' to the common enemy." ft O.v'QL A MAT TINGS.— We have just \ H received a large lot ol prime quality Mat tings 1 i i check and plain white.
