Prince y, Henry Little, Joseph Liciity, John Knaple, Tobias Miller, Secretaries: Buz'd Hint, Josi ch Lirht(terscr,Manassah Miller, Sam vtl M. Holler. On motion, the following were appoint ed a committee to prepare resolutions ex pressive of the sense of the meeting, who f;er some time reported the following, which were unanimously adopted. A. J. Ogle, Sam'l Elder, Perry Walk er, John II anna, Michael Frease, Levi Berkepile, Elijah Wagner. Resolved, That in common with all Whigs every where, we ut'.crlv repudiate Ill lie Free Trade policy of the Administra - lion now in power a policy which sliikc3 a fatal blow t the laboiing interests of the wliole country, and particularly at the ag- ricidtural and manufacturing interests of Pennsylvania, ar.d that we demand at the ;irlicst possible moment the foil ?nd com- Vie restoration of the TariS of '12, in t.ll lis length snd breadth. Resolved That the Tariff of '42 har- I inr proved itself by the best of all possi- I,!:,.,,. n.m,l PTnnriment. is regarded bv us, os necessary to the speedy devel- ; .mpmpnt of our vast resources, and abso-! ! huely essential to the protection of Amer-1 i mdimirv from the ruinous comnetilion ; I V, (111 - - - .

Dallas in the casting vole, ! which he gave upon the Taritt ot '4U, at- llicks, ieo. ivungaman, jr., uauiei lp ter repeated declarations that the inter- ; lev, Jacob Hoon, Jacob Lambert, Dr. csts of Pennsylvania were safe in the hands of the "Democratic" party; the last of which was made from his own door-sill, in the city of Philadelphia on the night preceding the election in '44 is only equalled in perlidy by the cowardly surrender, by James K. Polk, of Ameri can territory to British rapacity, the title to the whole of which he proclaimed was clear and unquestionable false to the truch and confidence reposed in him by his own party, how can the Whigs be expected to have faith in a man thus trea sonable to those who elevated him to pow er. Resolved, That we still adhere to the opinion so often expressed by us in re gard to the odious Sub-Treasury System now in force a system which - provides gold and silver for the office holders, and leaves a paper currency discountenanced by the government and thus depreciated in value by its agency, for the great mass of the community disastrous as is its op eration upon the monetary affairs of the people in time of peace; a brief experi ence of a few months has effectually dem onstrated its utter impracticability and in efficiency in time of war. . Resolved, That wc now make no in quiry into the causes which brought up on our country the present calamitous war with Mexico, but that we are at all times ready to second the General Admin istration by every means in our power in the prosecution of the war to an early, successful and honorable termination, and that if in the coarse of events any portion of the Mexican Union, should be annexed to our country, we arc unalterably oppos- ; ed to the extension of the slave power over a single inch of territory where the foot of a slave has never yet trod. Resolved; That we have every confi dence in the military qualifications of Ma jor General Taylor &, Scott, the plains of Palo Alio, Resaca de la Pal ma and the heights of Monterey arc witnesses of the skill and daring of the one; while the con test of Chinnewa. and the unnaralled struggle at Lundy's Lane, attest m the ; ri ' strongest terms the chivalric courage ana ardent patriotism of the other, and we re gard with indignation and regret the at- j tempt made by the President, with his j Lieut. General bill to deprive these brave and gallant men of the laurels they so richly deserve. Resolved, That we sympathise with and admire the many noble spirits who ( have left the comfort? "and endearments of home, and have gone to a sickiy clime to sustain the honor of their country, and if need be to pour out their blood in defence of the American flag; that Congress ought to increase the monthly pay of the com mon soldier at once, and that a just and full compenration out of our vast unappro- ! priated public domain should be made them for the hardships, sullcnngs ana perils incident to a soldiers life in the country of tiie enemy. . Resolved, That the thanks of the coun try are still due our talented and estimable representative in Congress, Hon. Andrew Stewart, for his noble advocacy not only of the interests of Pennsylvania but of the entire American people, and we call up- n him to repel with indignation, the j attempt now making ny J. iv. 1 Oik anu his cabinet to purchase a few votes in the free States for the interest of Southern . . .i . i ; Slavetioiuers, ny me conicmpuuie sop ui- fcrcd to Pennsylvania in the proposition to increase the duties on Iron and Coal to a small extent, assuring him, that nothing will satisfy a large majority of the people of this great state, but the complete res toration of the I anil ol is rj. Resolved. That Col. John R. Edie, our representative in the State Legislature is entitled to the warmest thanks of his con stituents, and of tho American party throughout the Slate, for the early intro duction of his Tariff resolutions in the House, of which he is a member and his able support of them to their successful passage. Resolved, That though dillering lrom him in politics, we cannot withhold the meed of praise from Gen. Simon Came ron, who, on several occasions in the Sen ate of the U. Stales, but especially while the suicidal blows of vile sycophants of power were destroying the hopes of the free laborers of our country, dared to burst the thrall of party ties, to lift up his manly voice in their defence. Of such democracy he and his constituents may well be proud. Resolved, That the discussion and vote upon the passage of the Tariff resolu tions, introduced by Col. Ldie, our Rep resentative at Harmburg, (the vote being ol Whigs and 1 true democrat in favor of the Tariff of 1842. and 41 free trade Lo- prifneos nrninst itA hive, nt Inst hrnnrrht . --7 -.w.-gj our parlr contests to a fair issue the Whigs for protection to Home Industry, must inevitably protect Foreign Industry. 11U w wvvj-. w m. aa We retoice-that such issue is now made and we call upon the friends of domestic industry throughout -the state, be they Whigs or Locofocos, natives or Liberty men, to turn out next fall and show by their votes, which party is justly entitled to the name of the "Tariff party." i Resolved, That John Bell of Addison township he the Representative Delegate to the 0th of March Whig State Conven- tion, and A. J. Ogle, Esq., with the ap- probation of Westmoreland connly, the Senatorial Delegate, and that they have power to substitute. Resolved, That the Delegates from our i - ' - - - county be "instructed to eupport James Cooper of Adams county, as our choice for Governor,-but if he should fail to re- ceive the nomination, we pledge ourselves as one man to support the nominee, Resolved, Tiiat the following gentle- men be a committee of correspondence for Somerset countv. viz: Samuel W .

Cooper, opposite Camp Jackson, Jan. 20, 1817, (but which arri ved too late for insertion in this weeks pa per) states that, this morning, six compa nies of our regiment started down stream, the remaining four companies will start in thp morning, as soon as a boat can be procurad to tow us off. The Guards were all on shipboard before the storm of 23d commenced, and consequently suffer ed but little from its violence. There are four companies on board the Cooper, The Guards were all well, with the ex- j ception of Taylor and Pearse, who were left in the hospital. The 2d Mississippi Regiment had bu ried over 50 of its men since their at N. Orleans. Westmoreland Intel. SEVERE STORM IN ENGLAND. Unprecedented Fall of Snow. The weather in England during the middle of December was very stormy ana coiu, at tended with heavy falls of snow. Off the coast the weather was very severe. The Nimrod steamer on her passage from Cork to Liverpool encountered a violent jra!e. The snow lay to the depth ol two feet on the deck of the vessel, a gale of wind blowing from the Eastward, atten ded by ternhc lightning. 1 he steerage passengers suffered severely; an old man anj a cuij died lrom the chects ol ttt cold. The Thames, at London, has been filled with ice, greatly to the hindrance of the navigation. The marshes surroun ding London were covered with wild fowl. The thermometer ranging at about G degrees above zero. All through the North, but especially on the Eastern coast ol England, there h.ivo been heavv snow storms. The rnnda were completely blocked up. In many parts of the north the snow lay to i the dentli of nine feet. On the track, ol the York and Newcastle railway, snow j;1y to the depth of seven feet. A train, to which live locomotives were attached, was sent from Gateshead to clear the track, but it came to a stand-still after j proceeding a short distance. "So beavy ia fall of snow had not been known for thirty years," says the Welshman; "in manv parts of Pembrookshire it lay to the depth of twelve feet. CONDITION OF IRKLAND- Famine and Disease. The accounts from Ireland, of the scarcity and high price cf food, and the consequent fanum which prevails in that ill fated country, j are of the most distressing character, and are calculated to arouse the warmest sympathies and the most generous emo- tions m the bosoms ol every philanthro pist, especially in our own country, where the earth during the past year lias yielded such a superabundance of the necessaries and delicacies of lne. The papers contain accounts of many appalling scenes resulting from the famine i in Trrlnn 1 At Skihhereen a renortor I jsiayjnr half an hour in the town counted t,irce aj-uneral procegsjons. One family j found dying of disease and want, i ' . . . i unable to go out and seek food and medi cine. In another cabin, nine persons lay streched on the ground, suffering from fever produced by want of food; here a woman had given birth to a child, lying upon some straw. Six persons lay a- round her, suffering from symptoms of fever brought on by starva tion. In another cabin a wnoie iamu was ill with fever, having lost two of its number within two days, and the unleel- ino- landlord had unhinged the door, took off their blankets, and left them to die without shelter, clothing or food. In thirty-two houses at least two of each family were ill with fever or dropsy; in some cases nine in a family were down, unable to move, and apparently anxious for death to relieve them from their sul ferings. A man his wife and children were con-; fined with the fever; and among the dying children was found the decaying corpse of a little boy who had died some time previously. In this case a piece of coarse packing stuff was the only covering over the living and the winding sheet of the .lend. In another house a poor woman havir." lost two of her children by fever, was found lying at the side of her third and last child. She tried to go to the tnvrn for relief for her dying infant, and while doing so, dropped down in the ! cfmnt xvns mrried home and died in r .J L 1 V, V- , ' . 4...,-.lViir limirs.

Cy OR ANOTH ER PROOF ADDED. The cures performed by Wistar's Bal sam of Wild Cherry, are really aston ishing to the world. The following we have just received from Messrs. Joslin and Rowe, Drug gists, in Newark in this State, to whom it was co'iimunicaled by John Wimer, Esq. a citizeu of Burlington, Licking county, Ohio. Burlington, O. Dec. I, 1843. Messrs. Joslin & Rowe At your re queu I herewith transmit to you a state ment of the case of Mrs, Wimer and child, as near as I am able to communi cate, which you are at liberty to publish if you see fit, as I feel a desire to inform ihe world of the effects of the invaluable midicine called Wistar's Ralsam of Wild Cherry, to which, by the Divine bless ing, 1 am indebted for the restoration to health of my wife ancj child. About five vears ago Mrs. Wimer was attacked wiih a violent cough, pain in iho chest and side nnd symptoms ofamma. clung consumption. During the interval from lhat time to some time in February last, she had been treated by eminent physicians from Uiica, Sylvania, Homer Chatham and Newark, and with only partial relief of the most urgent symp toms. About one year ago she caught a violent cold, which seated upon the lungs, producing an alarming aggrava tion of alt her previous systems. Iler physician was sent for, and despite his hest afforts she began to sink rapidly un der her disease. Cough, expectorant, and hectic, together with night sweats soon reduced her to a complete skeleton. In February last her attending phy si cian deemed her case altogether hope less; a council was called, and ufter de liberating upon her case, unanimously pronounced her to be beyond the reach f means, and expressed their opinion that she could survive but a short time, one or two weeks at farthest. She was at this time entirely confined to her bed. and scarcely able to articulate, except in a whisper. Her daily proxysms of coughing would last uninterruptedly from three to five hours, and so severe that wa expacted every proxysm would be her iaat. The physhn? in council pronounced her lung, liver, kidneys, spine and mu cus membrane of the stomach to be incu rably diseased. It was at this last extremity th.it wo happened to obtain a pamphlet describing" Dr. Wistar's Balsam of WiJJ Cherry, a applicable to lung affections. We imme diately sent to you and procured a bottle, and commenced its use at evening by giving her one teaspoon full, and such was the surprising effect that she was a b!e to pass a comfortable night without experiencing any paroxysm of coughing; anil such was its ultimate effect, that, af ter taking five bottles, she was, contrary to the expectations of her physicians and every one who saw her, entire restored to health, and since bst summer h3 done the entire work of the famiiy. After the last a'.lark of Mrs. Wimr. our youngest child, then an infant at lha breast, was taken down and r.ipidiy sink ing with the same symptoms as us mo ther, ami having seen the happy effects in the case of Me mother, we were dis posed to make a trial of it for the child, and it was attended with the same per fect success. The above statement can be attest' d by our physician as well a our nc bors and acquaintances, who ?aw rs. Wimer during the course cf her sick nes. Yours truly, john wt?srr.
