The first annual meeting of the Disci
p'.es co-operating with the Church at So
merset will be held at Somerset, comm."-:)-rl:ir
the Friday before the second Lord's
iav in Scotc-mbcr. (1810.) A number of

Pc:iii3"lvan3a n:id tlic TarliT.
I:i I'enn.-ylvanui the masses, without
distinction of party, are the friends of die
prot-.vtive system; end their Senators and
licprc-ntuavcs in Congress knowing this
fu-t, did their utmost to save the tariffof
IS 12, which had been fairly and fully
tested and found adequate to the people's
wants and desires. Eat one traitor to
1 er interests was found in Pennsylvania's
delation, and him we have in the hands
ei his cons'ituents. who will no doubt at
the proper time rebuke his treachery by
permitting him to retire to the shades ot
private like. There arc other men, how
ever, who are anxious for seats in Con
TiVas, whose views and purposes in re
gard to a protective Tariifare not very
ck'arly understood, and who may expect
to b o called on to "toe the mark' on that
question before the people will cast their
rotes for them. Of this number, we pre
sume, is Mr. Weyand, of this district,
who ha not yet publicly defined his po
sition." Tiie IJuly on Wool.
We observe that the Locofoco papeis
ccr.tiue to copy the fraudulent statement,
first put forth by Polk's official paper, pla
cing the duty on wool at 5 per cent uu-ih-rthe
Tarifl of 1612, and at 30 per
cent under the Act of 1S4G. They owe
it to the pubit-i to correct the mis-statement;
and unless they wish to deceive
their reader?, they will make that corrcc"
tion without dday. Here are the fac:
By the Act cf '12 the duty on all wool
worth over 7 cenls per pound ranged from
23 to 70 per cent, according to value,
while under the Act of '4G it U 30 per
cent.
I.crofoco Servillly.
Since tiie Administration through -its
organ, the Union, has threatened political
decapitation to all who will not sustain
the British Tariff Act. most of the Loco
foco presses in this State who had been
so prof.isc in their denunciations of that
Act, have changed their tone, and like
leashed hounds now bark as their masters
bid them.
S'.;eh has? cringing servility
mir'it be excused under a monarchy,
where the press is subjected to the cen
senhip of the crowned Head, but is loo
contemptible for any freemen in a republi
can -overnmen! to be guilty cf.
j27"Fcr the information cf our Whig
friends in Fayette and Greene, we would
just remark that, from all we can learn,
Mr. Weyand cannot run near as heavy a
vote in this county as Mr. Cleavenger
did; and if the other two counties of the
district do as well a3 Somerset will, Mr.
Stewart's majority may safely be set
down at more than three times as much
ss it was on anv former occasion.
31 r. VS'eyaiKl.
No man who asks the people's vote
ha. a rht to withhold from them his
opinions on a great question that in
volves their dearest interest. This is a
democratic principle; rnd we r.k Mr.
Weyand to answer tills question:
A r vnn frr the TarhJoflSiG cr the
TarhTof 1SJ2, and how would you Ime,
voted an the question had vou been in
Corgrers ?
An unequivocal answer to this query ; of which due notice will be hereafter gi
i etc to the people cf the Congressional' Yvn- t .
(ilstllv't.
T . . , -.1 j
e live in the same town with I
Mr. Weyand; and yet do not know on
u:.:ch fid? of the question he stands.
The Sr pcx her uumber cf this excel
lent and popular periodical is received.
Gedev never fails to furnish the readers
of his -Book" with highly interesting
ma tier, and the? loversof the fine arts with
someihmr to r-ohrurc r.nd the present
number is exceedingly rich in both these
respects.

Queer! - f
Some of 'the Locofoco presse3 bfiect to
be favorable to a protective Tariff, yet at
the sains tline try to persuade their read
erg that they would be much better with
out. Isn't that queer?
For the IJcrrJJ.
Mr. How. The unusual shout of
condemnation egainst the late Congress,
seems to pervade the entire press of the
Union; that Congress will assuredly bo !
long distinguished, a3 the most heartless
cud destructive one that ever assembled in
the United State?. Questions were for-
! ced upon the public mind, which the very
best interests of the
country required
shou'.J remain undisturbed: Oregon, as
j Mr. Adams truly said, was designed by
the God of nature as a part of the Ameri
can Union: 1 tie tide ot emigration has
flowed westward tor more than forty
vcars and will continue in an increased
ratio, during -renerations to come; here the
oppressed "and heart broken of Europe
find freedom of action, a shelter and a
home: The very same set of heartless
Demagogues, who the commencement
of the Session, at the uncalled for dicta
tion of the Executive, shouted for the
whole of Oregon: afterwards basely crin
ged and shrunk, in fear at the roar of the
British Lion, they I sec near tlc close of
the Session, urged the construction of a
railway, from" Michigan to the Pacific
Ocean.' Here is the very point at which
they should have began in December lar,t.
And they were warned of it by Mr. V hit-.
iieyofNcw York, and other able advo
cates of the measure; here would have
been the sure plan of putting us in pos
session, and rightfully too, of the
whole Territory and the public lands
a-kel fr its. cor.strtc.io, nr coild
have beec devoted to a more beneficial pur
pose; here would have been a high way,
which in twenty years would have be
come more populous, than any other ever
constructed on the Globe, a direct route
from Europe to the celestial Empire,rnore
speedily passed over, than any oilier, ever
vet discovered: Bat this would have
been a peaceful, deliberate and beneficial
measure; that would not have furnished to
the ambitious designing knaves, the
chance of making boisterous speeches, by
which they designed to entrench them-
I selves in the pieces, they had wrested for
the people, bv the most unblushing false

The house of Mr William Waddle,

lightning on Wednesday week, and every
member of the family prostrated. They
all recovered except William Waddle, Jr.
who was killed instantly. On the same
afternoon the house of Mr. Wark, in
Chambersburg, was struck, and Miss
Walk was very much stunned. A boy

was knocked down, and others were very
