‘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 :

He was nominated by a Legislative

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,

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:

ing useful information, and 10 turning

sons be a committee of vigilance viz.

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

lance Hiester’s majority in 1820
