The meeting being again organized, the Committee reporied the following - Preamble and Resolutions, which were © read, considered and unanimously adopted :° Friexps Axp Ferrow Rerusnri CANS ‘Lhe present is a most important cists. The administration of the S:ate government has been, andyet 1s. in the hands of | the i:deralistsy wbo hove pursued, and are pursuing, a policy at open war with the best n- tevests of the community. Under the pretext of advan: ng the internal im- provement of the couatry, they huve borrowed from the City Banks, to the amount of vwe million of dsllars and upwards, The advantages resulting from this immense! pi-blic debi, are unkown even to themselves. No cizss of our citizens have derived any from i puless itis a fow interested meng the immediate friends and reja- tives of the members of the adminis tration. To carry what ihev deem the gragd desizo into execuiion, they have incorporated an immense num ber of companies, curtailing and cir- cumscribing the liberties of the peo ple, assimilating to the Banking sys- tem and above all law. These daring inRovations upon the liberties of the people, and ‘this wicked and cruel olicy of involving the State in a debt which must be paid by immense tax es levied off the people, demands our most decided disapprobation. The remedy left, is for the people to dis- miss such men from their seryice—— men who have shewn themselves un- worthy of their confidence. The cri- sts has arrived. The redeeming spicit of genuine Demacracy is bu:st ing forthy and wick: daess, weakness and lolly, we bumbly trost, will be expelied from our Siate cabinet, A copshicuous member of the present federal adminisivation is An- drew Grego, the candidate of that pariy for Governor The immediate (Rependants upon cxecutive favor, are “making every exertion to promote hisy election. He ‘has been the prime over of those measures we so much Aicprecate, as members of the demo- cratic party ; and those people who have dermyed advantages from tage ing at the public’ teat, and having a fioper inthe public purse, will strain every nerve in his favor. To attain their end they are spreading the most malicious and unfounded charges a- gainst the democratic candidate, sta ting that he 1s tot ly unqualified for ve vo the discharge of the duties of the of- fice lor which he is a candidate. This isi not the fact, Moe. Shulze is the supeiior of Mr Giege in evgry ree speci. In point of education he is second (0 no man in Pennsylvania, and it was for his sterling woth, and excellent capacity tha: he was nom inated. These same men that abuse Me. Shulze almost worship Mr. Gresg. In their view he has every qualification, when ip fact he bas none superior to Mr, Shaize. He is HOW upwards of 72 years of age, & very firm, He is vascillating and unsteady in bis bemper. His political character 1s proof in point. THEREFORE" "| Resolved, That we will support the election of JOHN A. SHULZL : I Because, i.e is the Candidate of the NER of the! 3 oF vised them of the movements of onr troops, and sailing of our ships by ¢ blue lights,” and pullications © their papers. Ile vowed against the war, and cor- responded with peace Societies ; agreeing with them in the measures adopted to weaken the arm of Gov: erninent. He was nominated by a Legislative Caucus in the first place; and bis name afierwards registered at Lew: istown by a sham coavention, cum- posed of the most biticr aud de- termined federalists. He has assisted in sinking the state upwards ol ZW0 MILLIONS uf Dollars in debt, which must be discharged by a STATE TAX. He was President of (he Centre Bank of Pennsylvania. This institution] was oue of the number which the illustrious Snyder rejected. It was] in the first place eswablished con- trary to law 3 and afterwards those! concerned applied to the proper au | tion. This institution has contribei- | ed in an eminent degree to the difi culties and. troublss of the hard! times, which every section and! class ‘of the community have ex- pericnced. In some respects it was conducted with mo:e prudence than othier Banks; yet it is to be a'tributed wo the exertions and ca- pability of Jon~y Norrrs, Esq. and not to Audrew Gregg. Andrew Gregg was the President when it was doing the most mischief, and threatened most strongly to under: mine the iibertics of the people, Resolved, That many of us have been citizers of the County of Cen tre for thirty years, and have never heard of Andrew Gregg’s usefulness, not he was a candidate for Governor. We always regarded bim as a very selfish. map; interested for himself, and no one else. He bas had the op- land’s - horie. thority for a charter of incorpora-| lg NPT ithe present ® “ . Wel, the Chronicle, out 1t all comes. But we ask our readers, mto whose hands the Chronicle may fall, to sus. peod their opinion for one week, and we will give them such evidence as will convince them, not only that the Petrikin’s are yet alive ; but that they have absolutely laid the relations of Mr, Gregey hars du combat. , We have scen a hall sheet of the Patriot, which ¢ puts the saddic on the right horse.” ————% This blast was made by the famous Captain Bobadilta, Volunteer Aid to General Brown. lle was at Harrisburg last week fur a slice of the million loan; and Bc by ‘he Chronicle, that he bas challenged John Bions to bet several thousand dollars. His pockets were well lined with the money of the state’; and it does not excite aur special wonder” that be offic ed to bet the small sum of $5000. Itis but a trifling sum Io comparison, with the aggregate fleece ed from the state, since the reign of incumbent commenced. Bat these blasts are something like kis blasts heretofore. No danger 1s to be apprehended om the bugle ol this windy warrior, except to the wo men and children. © He might frrghten them ; but he is too well known blasting character to frighten any other se Liditor Patriot. LANCASTER COUNTY, Lancaster, July 30, 1823 Dear Sir—=Your favor of the 19th instant was duly received, and the contents afforded me much satisfac- ton. In answer to your request, I would wnform you, that the democrars in Lancaster county, have ncver been so well united as they ae this year ; almost all those who in 1817, or in 1820, left the democratic party and supported Governor Hiester have now returned to the party and become the portunity, but we have never witness: ed his usetullness. As the federal should renounce our political princi ples to favor the ambitious schemes and designs of any man, or set of men. Resolved, That we recommend it to our D- mocratic Republican breth ren throughout the County, fo unite “ heart and hand’ in the support of the Candidates that may be nominated by our delegates for county officers; apd use every honorable exertion to promote the election of JOHN AN: DREW SHULZE, by commubicat- ing useful information, and 10 turning out on the day of the election. Kesolved, That the following per- sons be a committee of vigilance viz. William Myers, Mathew Adums, Peter Gray, Sr, Jesse Williams, John Adams, Andrew Hunter, Jobn L. Gray, Peter Fleck, William Williams, for Patton Township. William Marshall, John Barr, Caleb Kepbhart, Pilip Benner, Jr. Joseph Denny, David 1 Pruner, James Resides Sr, Paulser Sellers, John Brace, Jeremiah Everly, John M'Kinny, Sr. Martin Meese, Join Letherman, Jor Spring township. And that it shall be their duiy, indi vidualiy, to procure and distribute the Democratic tickets on the day of the election, and act in concert with oth gr of their fellow Republicans. Resolv:d, That the Democratic cit- 9 Democratic Party reguiarly nomin- ated by a convention composed of. the hirmest democrats of Pennsylva- nia. 2 He will in the administration of the’ Siate government pursue a course consonant to genuine democratic principles. 8 lle isthe friend and advocate of the measures pursued by the General Government. 4 Because we consider him well qual: ied to fill the executive chair with hatorto himself and the democrat- IC Party j and to the interest and = advantage of the State. a He will ia his appoint fice sclect men of principle ; and remove from, office those whose principles are governed e . laterest ; not havipg © wellare of the country, but their own! advancement ; at the expence of thei honest and upright Cliizen. : Resolved, That we will oppose clection of ANDREW GREG tage, i!

WADDLE, Chairman. War. ADAMS, Wn. TURNER. ¢ Secretaries. —— 4 EP From the Pennsylvania Intelligencer FHE ARISTOCRACY OF CEN. TRE COUNTY. The relations of Mr Gregg seem to bave waged interminable war with the Perrikins, of Bellefonte ; and firm friends of Mr. Sh candidate, therefore, we will opposcmeeting on the 4th instant isa proof him; for we do not consider that we:of this. without any exertion we col- "n'a oo Our fected above 300. On Saturday last, we had a county. meeting, and it is al- luwed by ail to have been the largest mect ne ever held bere. The fodera- lists had a meeting at the same time, but ours was the largest. In 1820, Hiesters majority was 1897, in this couny. In 1823, Grege’s majorily will not exceed 1030. From the in formation we have reccived from cvery part of the statey we have every reason to believe that Mr, Shulze will be elected by a large majority if your county should do as weil as you represent, the gain there and bere would be suflicient to over bal- lance Hiester’s majority in 1820 nD § Upe——— THE VOICE OF THE WEST. Lirom the Colombian, I was diverted in reading a para- graph written by Mr. Miner the sap ient editor of the Village Record— who believes he holds the destiny of the state in his own hands. speaks with as much certainty in re- gard to futurity, as an astrologer would about thie stars. He says, « the west isall alive, and that there's fire in the mountains.” He may rest as sured that the wesiérn part of pe state is alive, and tull of the ¢t fire of liberty ;” but it is not ‘to fillow dictates of federal journalists. democrats of this part of the state will vote with more unanimity for Mv. SHULZL, than they bave done since the election of Mr Snyder. Mr. Shulze will receive an over- whelming majority in the West. The people will be « free” —they will support genuine repablicanism, and keep down the federal aristocracy of 98. Zhe pirospiect is indeed flatter. ing—to the friends of Mr. Stu ze. The friends of Andrew Gregg, have good reason for desponding. The dictation of office-halders is done for- ever.” Z. the The —— “CIE ——————— —— —— ote rere Sheriff’s Sales.
