LCGIjCiL, VERY.
The Democrat of last week commenting on
our remarks upon David Hay voting for the Lo
cofoco candidate for Speaker of the House,
eomes to the very logical as well as rational
conclusion, that because "Messrs. Scull &
Ogle did nothing towards advancing bis elec
tion," that therefore "it is none of ibeir busi
ness who he votes for for Speaker." In fact,
Mr. Mitchell thinks "there is uowuright impu
dence displayed iu this announcement." Will
Mr. Mitchell inform us since when it became a
tenet of Democracy that u member of the Leg
islature or of Congress only represents those
who voted fo- hirut We in our simplicity and
ignorance Lave -heretofore thought that a mem
ber of a representative body always was deemed
to represent his entire conustituency, not those
alone who voted for him. And if it be impu
dent in us to remark upon our representatives'
votes or official conduct, we would like to know
tow M-. Mitchell justifies his Jcruier strictures
upou the official conduct of Gov. Pollock, or of
Col. fidia, or Mr. Jordan our former Senator,
or any of our former representatives: Lc will
surely not pretend that he voted lor any <>t
them. In fact the boot is on the other foot, and
'it is downright impudence in 'he editor of iko
■Democrat , who has obtained so unenviable a
notoriety for his abuse ot riot only the public
but private character of many o; our citizens,to
attempt to take us task for our lemarks upon
the public and official acts of our representa
tive. Mr. Mitchell no doubt thought he was
very cunningly lay tug a bait fur the porsotiat
friends of Mr. Hay in thus assuming to take us
lo task for our comments, but such humbug is
too shallow to gull even the most unsophistica
ted. As to Mr. liny "standing true to the put
ty that elected hitu,"as the Democrat asserts,
that ia as sheer humbug as his former assertions.
Mr. Mitchell knows as well as Mr. Ilay himself
does, that with siuiply the "Democratic" vote
he could not have been elected, lie induced
\\ bigs, Americans,and Republicans to vote, for
kiui by the oft-repeated assertion that he was
not a uud v.ouJu not vote with that
party, which assertion he even repeated alter I
his election. If Mr. ilay ever otters an a can
didate again, we will prove these false repre
sentations of his to the heart's eoutent of Mr.
Mitchell, and cculd c!u it now by a cloud of j
witnesses if nec.-sscry. As to beartug "intense
haired" to Mr. Hay, the charge is untrue and i
unfounded. Y,'e Lr.vc always beeu on terms of I
personal auiity with hiui, but we will not make
an exception in his favor, uud permit any pri
vate feelings to over ride our duty to our party
friends, or as the publishers of a faithful
aud reliable Journal, if Mr. Hay did make
and afterwards violated these pledges, as we
eland ready to /nove, the public can put their
own estimate upon him, without the interven
tion of Mr. Mitchell or ourselves."— Sumeisct \

A MOTHER Kkbckk.—in addition to tho re
bake administered to President Buchanan, on
his Kansas policy, contained iu the inaugural
of Gov. Packer, the following resolutions were !
"unanimously adopted at u a large and enthusi-i
astic meeting held ou the 18th uit., by the De- !
ntocracy of Westmoreland county —the Demo- j
crutic "Star of the West," in Pennsylvania:— 1
The Committee on Resolutions,by their chair- '
■nun, William A. Stokes, Esq., reported the
fallowing, wlii.-h were unanimously adopted-
Jbe Democracy of Westmoreland county,
in mass meeting assembled, do unanimously re- ;
solve:
That the fundamental basis of American free- ;
dorn is I he right of the people, without uis'inc
tiou of locality, circumstance or result, to make
the laws under which they iive.
This great right,assailed during tho iatc Pres
idential contest, hy our opponents, was glori
ously vindicated by tho election of the Demo
cratic candidates.
This victory was supposed lo insure to all,
and especially the citizens of Territories of the
"United States, the free exorcise of all rights by
which to declare, establish aud maintain such
institutions, policy, and measures as a majority
might deem best adapted to promote their pros-
If-erity, security and happiness: and this without i
any dictation or restraint from any person or
officers, or any unauthorized interference what,
ever.
Such independent freedom of the popular will
euti only be attained by a full exercise of the
individual right of the elective franchise, and
this, therefore, is the true test of the validity of
Constitutional Government.
Wherefore. Congress should admit no State
mro the Union, except with a constitution rati
fied and adopted iu ail its parts by a majority !
of all the citizens to be governed by such Con
stitution, which majority should be real, not
fictitious: fait,not fraudulent: direct,not implied:
and anything short of this, is a mockery, a de
lusion, and a snare, infamous in act, aud disas
trous in consequence.
To abandon the people of a Territory to po
litical intrigue, unfair intrusion, or lawless vi
olence, and thus defeat the true expression aud j
absolute application of the right of self-govern
ment, would be a violation of the honor and
abandonment of tho uiaxims of the Democratic
party, and must finally result in rupturo of the
bonds by which the party is held together, and
consequent sacriuce of all that secures the free- j
doru, greatness, and glory of our country.
OI R IKFOBTVIfiTE PRESIDENT.
It appears by letters from Washington that
Mr. Buchanan has got himself into difficulty by J
his double-fuced policy. Comodcre Paulding, j
it is said, has private instructions from the Pres- I
ident, fully warranting his capture of Walker j
in the style in which it was done, and entirely \
icfuting the declaration in the message 'hat. the i
Commodore transcended his instructions.
On the other hand it is announced that Silt- 1
buster Walker, enraged at the President's de
certion, is on bis way to his trial in New Or
leans, holding in bis pockets documentary proof
that the President was an original advocate and
■counsellor of the late UDsucoessful fiilibuster
ing invasion of Nicaragua.
This thete are two opposite and hostile par
tie?, each disgusted with the President's dupli
city and half-faced fellowship, and each hold
ing a sword of Damocles over the ter r or strick
en functionary ol the White House. Truly, as
Henry Clay said, it is belter to be right than
be Y. Post.
In Brooklyn, N. Y., n fewdays ago, a school
house took fire, and "in the scarble of the schol
ars to escape, six children were* trampled doWo '
and killed

medicine pecidi.il. adapted this disea*,- has
hecn tiie study 1.1 one o! tint proprieloi?, jn ,-t
large and extended practice lor the past twenty
rears, and tiie result ol l.is experiment is the
Invigorator. as a uuvci-failiue remedy wlnie
nedicine has any power to help. As a Liver
Remedy it has no equal, us ail testily who use
It.
A lady writing from Brooklyn, says, "Would
hat J c-dhi express in this short letter the val
ue your Invigorator has la-en to mc in raising
large tdniiiy of children, for it has never lai.-
rd to relieve all affections ol the stomach, bon
ds or at'acks of worm*. It mothers once had
this remedy placed within their reach, ami were
taught how to use it, a tearful ana untold a
tuount of agony might bo saved."
Ouc of our piominent banktrs says, "Five or
six years since I toiind my sell running down
with u liver difficulty ; resorting to you. li i'-
orator, was greatly relieved, and, continuing
lor a season, was entirely restored."
A clergyman called at our office the other
day and said ho had given a poor woman a bot
tle, who was buttering very fcadlv from Liver
Complaint, and before she had taken the tvhohr
of it she was at work earning bread lor turfum
ily.
A gentleman, recently from the West, says,
while at Chicago, he was attacked Willi a slow,
lingering fev-r, that baffled the skill ol physi
cian?, but the luvigoritor cured him in a iiw
days.
One of our city merchants said, while or. a
visit to Troy, a few days since, Le was attacked
with bowel ami stomach disorders, so as to con
fine him to his room, he sent to the drug stole
for a bottle of Invigorator, took one dose, which
relieved him so that ho was able to attend hi*
business.
An acquaintance, who.-e business compels
him to write most ot the time, says, he became
So weak as to be unable at times to hold la*
pen, while at others, sleep would overpower
him. hut the Invigorator cured hiw-
A gentleman Iroin Brooklyn called on its a
Week or two since, looking hut tue shndi w of
man, with a skin yellow, pale and deathlike.—
lie had been for a long time suffering from
Jaundioo ami Dyspepsia, and unable to attend
to his business, We saw h'm again to-day a
changed man, and to use his expression, lie has
not seen the bottom of the first bottle, and far
ther adds "it saved my life, for I was fast go
ing to a consumptive's grave."
Among the hundreds of Liver Remedies now
offered to the public, there are none we can so
fully recommend as Dr. Sar.ford's Invigorator,
or Liver Remedy, so generally known now
throughout the Union. This preparation is tru
ly a Liver Invigorator, producing the most
happy results on all who use it. Almost innu
merable certificates have beeu given of the great
virtue of this ir:-diclno by those of the highest
standing iu so ciety, and it is, without doubt,
the best preparotiou now before the public.
