co, That we esteem the said
pomication well calculated to harmon-
ize the feelings, combine the energies,
and restore the ascendency ol the
Democratic party, and we do pledge
onrscives to use all honorable means
to jake that nomination triumphant.
/Resotved, That we challenge the
£nemnies of iree government, and the
appasers of the democratic party, to
p oduce one acl in the lile and con
duct of JOHN ANDREW SHULZE
which can detract from his character
as a good citizen, a sincere and unas-
suming christian, a consistent, firm,
and melligent democrat.
Resolved, That the federalists, by
as uming the name of Democrats for
the purpose of imposition, offer a gross
and undeserved lusuit to the good
sense of the People : —that it is in it-
s<If degrading «nd contemptible to
attempt to mislead by borrowed orna-
ments : and that the federalists would
do well to remember, that the Lion's
skin affords peoverbially, oo disguise
fur an inferior creature.
Resolved, That a Roman Catholic
Combination for the avowed purpose
of effecting pohuical ebjects through
religious vxcitement, is of a danger-
ous tendency, and alarming example
that it is a direct attack upon the
spirit and welfare of our free institu

/ with civil liberty.
: Resolved, That while we have lif
Caud vesson, we will oppose, with all
the means which the law shall furnish
us, any and every religious combina
tion to cffect political purposes : be
cause we believe that our best inter.
esis, as magn and christians, are endan-
aered by that spirit of religious dom-
nation which barters the fanh of its
followers for temporal objects, and
changes the Gospel of peace and pei-
{fot freedom, into a warrant for fac-
tious violence and Intrigue.
Resolved, That this meeting do
most sincerely deprecate the intro:
duction of the Spiritual concerns of
auy church, or religious denomina-
tion inte thie political affairs of this
commonwealth,
ist. Bzcanse Constitution of
the United States, and of this Come
monwea lth have guaranteed to every
iudividual, the right lo worship Al
mighty God according to the dictates
of his own conscience.
94. Because we believe the en.
Jiahtened Representatives of a free
people are incapable of violating this
sacred right.
'Sd. Because the connexion between
the goveroment ol the state and the
church has in ail ages, and in al! coun
tries, and under all hieracchies, pro-
duced the most deleterious conscquen
ces, as well to the rulers as those
who may be ruled,
4th. Because the ancient and ven:
erable charch whose rights are at-
tempted to be drawn into the present
discussion Lave so severely suffered
from this connexion between tempo:
ral power and spiritual authority.
5:h. Because it is degrading to that
ov any other church, that its spiritu-
al rights should be ever made subser-
vient to the views of political parti-
z:n3, or their schemes.
6th Bechuse the virtde of the peo-
pleand the purity and independence
of our Judicial tribunals will secure
to our religious brethren, a full aod
ample redrdss for all grievances thai

7th, Because in this country wher
there are so many different religious
denominations, and no particular sec!
coostitutes a majori'y of the whole
people, every religious sect is inter-
ested in securing to each other a full
enjoyment of their rights of con-
science.
8th, Because the array of any re.
ligious denomination in a political con-
icst, is calculated to" excite the pre.
judices ot other religious denomina-

made the instruments of poliucal in-

‘house and barn, out houses, and about
‘seventy or eighty acres cleared ; six-
teen of which are meadow—a bear-
ing APPLE and PEACH orchaid,
besides a variety of other fruit trees ;
ALSO,
a tract of land adjoining the last men-
tioned, containing about
200 acres,
with small improvements, but ele-
gant land, and easily cleared;
ALSO,
in that neighborhood, two tracts ol
unimproved land, containing
2000 acres,
is the best in that county,
which many in that country are de-
prived of. They are situated three
or four miles from the Susquehanna
deavored to destroy the ascendancy of River; four or five from the mouth
lof Anderson’s creek ; and (rom a mile
to a mile and a half trom the turnpike,
leading from Eric through Bellefonte,
The State road from Hantingdon in-
tercects this turnpike, and passes the
houses of the improved tracts. Per-
sons wishing to erect water works of
any description, will find these lands
in every respect well calculated for
that purpose ; the seats on two of the
tracts, one improved, are considered
the best in that part of the county,
well supplied by nature immediately
about them, with valuable sawing
timber, such as pine, cherry, oak, &c.
which it converted inte boards and
scantling, and sent down the Susque-
hannah, would realize to the owner a
handsome profit. The Jand is gener-
ally timbered with oak, hickory, &c
The price will be very moderate,
for the improved, by paying half ip
cash, and the remainder in equal
payments. The unimproved, by pay-
ing part in hand, and the remainder
by installments, the subscriber will
sell much lower, than any that has
heretofore, or that now is, offered in
