fCTWe have been requested by the
Countv Treasurer to stale, that the rale of j
unseated lands m Somerset countv ha?
been postponed until next year the

whom a list of s Jd lands had been sent j
for publication, hating failed to comply
with his contract in time.
C!7The rumor of a declaration of
war a-rc:nst the United States bv Mexico, !
w I
publislsed in a postscript last week, has
not been confirmed bv later intelligence.
RiSftt cl" Way.
By an article in to-day's paper, which
we copy from the Pittsburg American, it
will appear that the Pittsburg and Con
uclisiille Railroad Company had their
pnviliges extended so as to be enabled to
carry the:r road to the Maryland line.
This will obviate the necessity of any
grant for the -'right of way," as far a
mere connection between Pittsburg and
Cumberland is the object; but we are net
quite certain that the Pittsburg and Con
iiellsvillc Company will have the nrivil-
cge, without further legislation, of taking j
the route through Somerset county which
it is understood the Baltimore and Ohio
Company wouid have taken, had the
'right of way" been granted to them un
conditionally. AVe may add, that the Philade!
phians arc actively engaged in raising the
nrvcssarv funds for the commencement ,
of the Central Railroad, and it is thought !
. . i l l ,,u-.n ;,, '
they will succeed, m which case the otu m
. . , x. . i
pany will be rendered null and void.

Pursuant to notice, a large and very
respectable meetings of the Whigs and
Antimosoas of Somerset county was held
at the Court House ii Somerset, oa Tues
day evening, May 5, 1S4G. -
Jost J. Stutzaian, Esq., was chosen

were blazoned ur
lples ami oojecis, which
anon our banners m lai j
it:J -11, v:z:
A sound currency, the same in
kind and value for the Government and for
the people.
A suTicient revenue for the support of
rovernment by' a Tariff of duties upon
V T k 1 lililwtll ' J - - X
Eorei-rn importations, which shall amply
nrotcct the entire industry of our country
from the otherwise ruinous competition
with the Hard Mo'xnv low-wages, man
ufactures and productions of Foreign
countries.
A restriction on the exercise cf the Ve
to power, or its entire abolition, so that no
executive either of the General or State
Government shall be permitted to defeat
the will of the people, when expressed
through the votes cf a mnjjrily of their
Legislative Representatives.
An annual distribution of the nett pro
ceeds of the sales of the public lands a
niong all the States, to whom of right
they belong.
A single term of office especially of
j all executive oilicers to whom is given
extensive patronage through the appoint-
mz power
Resolved, That in the belief that the
above principles and objects, if carried
out and sustained, would greatly enhance
and secure the welfare of every section
of our Union, we voted against James K.
Polk in IS14, and we will continue to
vote asrainst every man for any office
from President down to the lowest officer
administration of the National and
State Governments, who is opposed in
... . V , ,
principle or practice to such truly Amer-
ican measures.
Resolved.Thatthe attempt now nnkingin
Congress by the Polk party, which it is
feared will be but too successful, to repeal
the Whig Tariir of 1842 in its protective
n;1r,roc. nwrht to afT:rd omlttr demon
stration to the blindest supporter of that
. .i . -i i i i i ri.:;,.i
party, that their leaders basely falsified.
when they dec! a red to the people m lb44
that Polk was as good a Tariff man as
Henry Clay.
Resolved, That we recommend to the
Locos of this county for their example,
the honest and consistent rebuke of James
K. Polk by their party in Clarion coun
ty, who lately in county meeting resolv
ed "That while the present Tariff laws
"continue to afford revenue adequate to
"defray the expenses of government cc
"onomically administered, and at the
,. same time afford fair protection to our
" home industrv, wc arc wholly and ir-
ravocablycpposed to their n oi:ticationor
.,, ,n, . ..
"repeal" and "That while we approver
M h fejtarcJ of tho pfeSijcn:-
s
" ed to his views on the subject of the
" revenue laws of the country and par
" ticularlv disapprove of his recommcn
" dation of a repeal of the Tariff of
184J."
Resolved, That the luidatory terms in
which Secretary Walker's Treasury Re
port hjs been noticed in the British Par
liament and by the British Press, proves
most conclusively that the present Ad
ministration of our Government is view
ed with greater favor by the British Min
isters' than any that has preceded it, and
that if there be a British party in the U
nited States, it the party which eleva
ted and supports James K. Polk.
Resolved, That tho' we accord hones
ty of purpose to the mass of our politi
cal opponents in following their leaders,
yet we are constrained to say, that a pro
fession of patriotism such as some of
those leaders make, and their deadly hos
tility to American manufactures as mani
fested whenever the question of a protec
tive Tariff arises, are entirely inconsistent
and at variance with each other, and that
therefore we cannot view them in any
other light than that of hypocrites and j
brawling demagogues.
. Resolved, That our Representative in
Congress, the Hon. Andrew Stewart, is
entitled to the thanks of the whole coun
try for his untiring efforts to save the
present excellent Tariff, and for his able
exposition of the destructive policy
which James K. Polk and his Secretary
of the Treasury are "endeavoring to force
upon the country.
Resolvcd.Tha't we highly approve of
the holding of the great National Fair at
Washington, as recommended by our del
egation in Congress with 4our Andy" at
their hed, andve hope that the splendid
exhibition of American manufacured arti
cles, which will there be made, and the
thousands of honest and well paid me
chanics and manufacturers who will be
(there also, will have the effect to drive

' the British airent who we blush to heir,
. o .
: has been permitted to occupy a room m
i the Public Buildings for the exhioiMon oi
. British goods, for the dwparageraent of
American milium uuc, aw
doctrination of the British principles of
Free Trade among American Demo
crats. Resolved, That the charge made by
the Loco advocates of Free Trade, that
the duty levied upon an imported article
by so much increases the price to the con
sumer is false and proved so by a circular
issued by the American Institute in New
York, which says, it can be established
that "every article which can be manu
" factured at home and which has recei-
ved a protective duty for seven consecu-
live years, has, by home competition
and consequent developement of inge
" nuity alone, been reduced in price to the
4 consumer belowjthe Foreign cost at the
" time of imposing the duty."
Resolved, That the American people,
to exist as an independent nation, must
be able to clothe and defend as well as
feed themselves.
Resolved, That if Mr. Polk was cor
rect in assuming that our title to the
whole of Oregon "is clear and unques
tionable," his duty would have been to
maintain that title at all hazards, and his
offer through the Secretary of Statu to
compromise at 49 degrees was therefore
an offer of surrender of the nation's just
rights;or, on tha othjir hinJ,if wa hive no
title to the whole of Oregon, then was it
highly improper in Mr. Polk to assert;
what lie did assert. Whether our title
be good or otherwise, therefore, Mr Polk
is justly chargeable with all the expendi
tures of money that have loaowed on
account of the ground assumed by him,
in the discussion of this question, which
is now as far from being settled, as it
was before.
Resolved, That although the Locofocos
are alone responsible for all the difficul
ties that have arisen or may yet arise on
account of the annexation of Texas, and
occupation of Oregon, vet should the na
tion become involved in war m conse
quence of those measures, the Whigs ev
ery where will be found at their posts,
readv to defend the country's rights and
the country's honor.
Resolved, That the attempt to fasten
upon the country the iniquitous Sub
Treasury, the "condemned of 1840,"
which is to provide gold and silver for the
office holders and shinplasiers for the j
people, and to expose tne "treasure of trie
people to be plundered by a hundred
hands, where one cannot now reach it"
(to use the former language of the mis
erable tool who controls the executive or
gan at Washington), is an insult to the
true Democracy ot the country, who
were the majority of 1840, and is anoth
er" evidence of the destructive principles
of the party, "who" in the words of a-
nother of their great leaders, are "held to-
gether only by the cohesive' power of
public plunder." .
Resolved, That the proposition lately
announced by one cf the Polk leaders
in Congress, to increase the rates of post
age, will meet the condemnation we trust
of every well wisher of his country's in
telligence and prosperity. ,
Resolved, That Col. Edie and the oth
er Representatives of Western Penna.
who advocated the "Right of Wav" are
entitled to the thanks of their constitu
ents, for their arduous services in behalf
of our rights, and although their success
was not equal to their exertions and to
our wishes, yet we feel 'bound to say
"well done, good and faithful servants."
Resolved, That we recommend to the
County Committee the propriety of ta
king'some action at an early,day with aview
of effecting a thorough organization of
the Whig and Antimasonic parly of this
county and of forming a county Ticket for
the ensui ng election.
Resolved, That the proceedings be
signed by the officers, and published in
all the Tariff-papers in the district.
The Senate of the State of Michigan
have passed a bill indefinitely postponing
that section of what is known as the 'But
ler act' which requires an annual tax to
meet the interest on the debt of the State.
