The opposition to the democracy has al
ways posiessed one peculiarity, by which it
may be easily recognized While in a tran•
Fajen state, as it often is, uSed up—prostra
ted—dissolved, under one name atid act of
pnneiTitett, rind, looking. hoping and wett

Di:Licence, as Rho then appears, or whether
she has been changed by Montesenos the en
chanter, to harrau and perplex- them.
The character of the Wading editorial in
the last number of the Whig of this place,
is of the kind referred to. It avers that the
Ponoerney Is not the Democracy -Just as'
the National Republicans did in 1824--just
as the Anthinnsons did uI 182 P ,, and Just as.

of Jefferson, of James Nloin roc and Andrea

Papers are just now particularly filled The
old Federal party, has mit been suet, p.fol
.r..2mpoink-g the lung, un
der any of its atlases, but like the rogue who
changed his name to get credit, it has al
ways been detected and unmask ed. 'At the
last general election, the people recognized
it under the name of Republican, and repu

in tnbulatort , about- a new moyc They
would fain Steal the name Democracy, if
they could, but were they successful, as
they trill nut 0, they would abuse and dis-

But we can hardly iinplain of the last
Whig's leader under the circumstances.
What else could the editor hay f W. hat
other excuse could be gtsen to the duped
rank and file, to hold than for a time in
subjection I In the language of John Quin
cy Adams. lying is their "Vocation," and
when it is so palpable, why we say, let them
indulge the propensity.
In fact, this article is net icarthy of nutter
—nor would no descend to gay a word about
it, if it were not for the glaring filselioodi
and palpable more prest niabons %%bitch are
the chief charactensties of this dilkl upon
the Democratic party. The trr der asks:
What is the question now before the
people 1 Is it that of a National Bank, a

its policy— And National prospejty, Ns

We will now proceed to give you one of
the beautiful effusions—an efruition, too,
which constitutes only one of the many at

Reader, there is something transcendently
beautiful in this little extract —something
chaste'--it is perspicuous—clear as the "light

no doubt, after unloading his stomach of so
delicious a mprcean, he huzzaed, and kick

Democratic State Convention
The Democratic State Convention, for the
purpose of nominating candidates for Su
preme Judges, ass embled at Harrisburg on
the 9th inst. ft was pretty well attended,.
Quite a numbe!of candidates were present
ed, hut the two moat prominent before the
Convention were the Hone Wm. Strong. of
Berke «minty, And James ThoMpson, of Erie
county, both of whom were nominatA.,
These auspicious nominations are, in zur
estiirtion, the very best that (-mild have
to meet the appmaehing crisis. They
are n spontanenuslribute to unpretending
worth, solicited by neither of the nominees
%bendy have (hey descended upon the backs
of our enemies like • cataract of Tee water.
They see in them, as ‘. II as ourselves, the
hartringer of - an ifhpiireffeiell - Tremocratic
victory, and already hear the death knell of
Lewis and Veech, and their confederated
spodsman ringing in their ears. Let Its be
thankful to Providence for this popular and
worthy ticket. The haleyoti bird of Peace
has hovered over the deliberations of our
friends and dropped healing from her wings !
Our ticket is complete, and our cause is just.
Now we can enter upon the duties of the
conflict with hold hands and buoyant hearts,
now our young mon, and our old, may gh
forth Fru-limning in advance the tidings of
another Democratic triumph.
The Erie Go:eite. an opposition print, an
nouncing the nomination by the Democratic
Convention of Judge Thompson, for the Su
preme Bench, says :
—As is well known, we dal. from Judge
Thompson politically, and shall feel bound
to oppose kis elec tion : but at the same
time we can truly say that he is, by legal
attainments and general talents, well quali
fied for ti. position for which he has lien
nomiled Ito. party have certainly evin
ced d sense and judgment in selecting
him."
When it is remembered that T. has ever
been an ardent and energetic worker in the
ranks, this testimony from a po
litical opponent is entitled to double weight,
proving that our candidate is as hoporable
na ho is able.

ttttttVll l /111,111. 114,..-4111 poi;
more votes in ~ Western Pennaylvama than
any other man spoken of in connection with
the office. _
The Washington Union pays a high com
pliment to Judge Thompson, and says the
"selection is alike complimentary to him
end to. the sagacity of the Convention which
led them to make it. Ills election, which
we deem certain, vi ill do credit to the voters
who secure it. Ile will bring to his Judi
cial duties talents and acquirements adapted
to the pomtion, and will acquire new honors
in the discharge of hi, high duties."
Our Paper
Every week our prospects brighten. We
believe there hits not been A day since our
connection with the Watchman, that its
patronage has not been inereased.• To se
cure a continuation of that patronage is all
we desire. By pursuing a stnetly Demo
cratic course we eapeet the support of every
Democrat. If any tattier course is to lie
adopted to secure that confidence or support
we de,ire it not. As editors, we do not as
sume the dictatorial chair, but•sha4 always
so far as ability and . industry will go, en
deavor to make the Watchman subservient
to the adi of the people. We !Well scarce
ly say, we arc the organ of no particitharilte
(ton, or imlivoltials. but free as thi4fian
tam air, ready and willing to act with the
majority in - Tarrying out those principles
calculated to benefit our common country.
We hopg all who feel an interest in the our-
COs of Democratic measures and the wel
rareof the Democratic party, will take some
pains in procuring good hubaeribcra for th.
Watchman. Circulate the truth. -
Tim Legislature of Pennsylvania, at its
recent session, passed a law prohibiting pri-

other negotiable paper. The law is to take
effect on the Ist of July, sodits violation is
to be puttied - led by fine and imprisonenent.--

We have seen the above paragraph going
the rounds of the Republican press for spine
• weeks past, until, we think, it has been
copied by about every one of them in the
`country. These sickly philanthropists are
lin the habit of telling ne a great deal about
'the Declaration of Independence, and that:

Rather Unexpected
The Banner, the oppoytt9n paper in Clar.
ion egunty, has been trying to guild] Ahou
tionisin since "Sam" Went under, but lis
at last found the act of deglutition entirely
ton laborious for its meak limes, and in its
last issue breaks out in the following man
ner.
"It is conceded that there must always
be pro opposing parties in the country. -
We will &MIMIC that the Democratic party,
to and will tio ono of those parties. Then
comes the question what is and will be the
opposing party. I No rational man will
contend for a. moment that the Republican
party to or ever can hope to be. Purely sec
tional and anti-rational in its objects and or
ganization, and having no adherents or even
attaxistericc in ormitalt pc the States, end
under the most favorable circumstances un
able to command a plurality of the popular
vote in the other halt, the very idea of the
Republican party ever being the opponents
of the democracy, is a palpable contradic
tion and en absurdity that. admits not of
the slightest favorable consideration."
The most casual observer of the...4olwof
the times will agree with the above. The
Republican party is last following in the
wake of its predecessor, tho Know Nothing
party. Its knell is soundinglin all parts of
the country. _ trolitiankim i r head
and - discharged itself last fall, in this State—
next fall the core will be squeezed out.—
The Banner, thinks the American patt y
will be able to cope
_with Democracy here
after. The news from Virginia, rVe appre
hend, if anything wero wanting, is a com
plete extinguisher of such an idea. While
the opposition arc thus dying out, bow
proudly floats the old Dernodrallb Ship.
It is calculated - that about threelundred
thousand persons will emigrate during this
season from-New England to tho Western
Stipa and Territories, an exodus * equal in
population add wealth to the removal of the
whole city of Boston.
