believed that his gallant State will not hesitate, in such a contingency, let the couscqueeces be what they may, to fall back on their reserved rights, and declare to the world, "As for tbis Union, we have uo l inger any lot or part in it.' He rebuked the gontlenisu from Tennessee [Mr. Nelson] for "his laudation of this glorious Union." His colleague [Mr. Curry] said: "I am not ashamed or afraid publicly to avow that tbe election of William H. Seward or Salmon P. Chase, or any ueh representa tive of the Republican party, upon a sectional platform, ought to be resisted to the disrup tion of every tie that binds this Confederacy together." Which sentiment, the Congressional Globe informs U9, was applauded "on. the Democrat ic aide of the House." Die colleague [Mr. Pugh] said, if the Lle publicsDS get possession of the Government — "Then the question is fully presented, whether tbe Southern States will remain in the Union, as subject and degraded colonies, or will they with draw and establish a Southern Confederacv of coe qual homogeneous sovereigns? In my judgment, the latter is the only course compatible witli tbe honor, equality aud safety of the South; and tbe sooner it is known and acted upon the better for all parties to tbe compact." His colleague [Mr. Ciopton] defended "the policy of secession in the event of the suc cess and triumph of the Black Republican party, as a preventive remedy against injus tice and oppression." All nf these gentlemen acted with tbe Dem ocratic party iu the contest for Speaker, though they refused to vote, en the last ballot, for the gentleman from Illinois, [Mr. MoUlernand.} The member from Georgia [Mr. Crawford] said ho spoke the sentiment of every Demo crat ou the floor from that State, when he de clared "they will never submit tu the inaugu ration of a Black Republican President;" which, tbe Congressional Globe informs us, was applauded front the Democratic benches. He repeated the remark, and he was again ap plauded in the sarno quarter. Further, he •aid for himself, that ha had lost all ho£e of equality in tbe Union, and he was for indepen dence now. He also said that slavery "de mands expansion, and will have it." His col league [Mr. Gurtrell] expressed substantially tbe same sentiment. These gentlemen voted for all the Democratic candidates for Speaker. The gentleman from South Carolina [Mr. Bonhani] said that upon tbe election of Sew ard, or any such man, he "was in favor of aD immediate dissolution of the Uuion." His oolleague [Mr. Miles] said he was a sec tioual man; that he owed his chief and prima ry allegiance to South Carolina: and ihat he felt no sympathy with that general, indiscrimi nate laudation of this nation, which seems to swallow up iu that one idea every notion of State rights and State sovereignty. The gentleman from Alabama [Mr. Moore] said that to his "gallant State he owed bis first and highest allegiance." His colleague [Mr. Curry] protested that to "Aiabaiaa be owed Lis firsi and undivided al legiance." The gentleman from Virginia [Mr. D Jar oette] said, that Seward might be elected President of the North, but of the South Devi •r; and that Virginia, in view of her illustri ous dead, and in view of ber sic semper tyran uis, will resist his authority. llis colleague [Mr. Leake] denies that Vir ginia will conseut to tight within this Union for her rights— ks lately proposed by Governor Wise, and approved by some of tlie delegation iti Longress. He said the idea was ridiculous in the extreme; and he claimed that Virginia has the right, when she pleases, to withdraw from the Confederacy; which sentiment, the Globe's report of proceeding 6tates, was ap plauded upon tho Democratic benches. Both these V irginia members voted for ail the Dem ocratic candidates for Speaker. NO DISCNIONISM OUTSIDE OP THE SOUTHERN DEMOCRACY. 1 might multiply extracts, selecting from other speeches in the House, and from those of most prominent Democrats in the Senate.— Surely, these will satisfy the most incredulous that a very large proportion of the Democratic leaders of the South are secessionists and dia unionists; that tbeee opinions place them be yond the pale of sympathy or confidence from the Union-loviug masses; and that they are, of necessity, moat unsafe and unfit men to be iq trusied with our great national interests. Yet it is most true, that the Democratic organize* tic a is in rhe hands of these gentlemen, and such as they; that the States they represent elect Democratic Presidents, and send the bulk of Democratic members of both branches of CoDgreas; that they control the Congres sional oaucuses and National Conventions, and mould the policy of the party, and that a large portion of their power for evil grows out of their position as managers at the Demooratio party. Outside of them, there is no disunion sentiment of the least consequence. The dis uoionist's home is in or near the Demooratio party, and he selects that because his brethren are at its bead, and because he bas found it to be the most eligible workshop he can Cud, iu which to prepare the weapons he iuteada to wieid against the Union. Sir, let me Dot be misunderstood, i speak ctt of the masses of that party, North or Sooth, iu both sections they are honest, sin cere, and patriotio. They are lovers of the Union, and would shed their blood to maintain it, as their fathers did to confirm and preserve st. But they have Dcaa betrayed. Already ; the truth is breaking upon them, and they be gin io realize, more or !:• clearly, that they j are in truth the motive power of a machinery which is actually levelled at what is nearest : and dearest to them. It is difficult to realise j such perfidy; but when convinced of it, and . of the policy of the masters of the Democrat- < io organization, the people of both sections j will rise in their might and majesty, and, plow- , ing up all the prejudices of education, and all ' the influecas of habit, turning deaf ears to ! party rallying eriez, and offering all their per- ; tonal preferences a sacrifice upo? the altar ofj their country, tbey will pull down apd stamp with reprobation those who have gained oonfi- i dence only to abase it, sought power only to ' sap the foundations of the Republic. There is a fearfulness in a people wielding the sword of avenging justice. Here tt will be done peace fully, quietly, bat effectually, as it has hiih.tr- | io been; and tbc splendid devotion of a whole j nation to themselves— as will on that day bo made manifest —will send fear to the bearu of the traitorous, joy to the hearts of the patri otic. The Administration party in tbij House j fcara not only pursued a reckless, faotious, 1 disorganizing and revolutianary course; not only ranged themselves under th® banner of •vowed secessionists, and, at tbe least, give's the approval of siienee to tbe boldest declara tions of treasonable purposes, thereby shock ing at once tbe moral seuse and the patriotic instincts of tbe people: but they have howu, in the actual votes oast for Speaker, that there it wanting to them the cooipactne-s of men devoted to great ideas, and united for their establishment; that there is no. bond of princi ple between then - .. The demoralisation of the Administratiou party in thus House, as proved in this contest, is everywhere accepted as a type of r& demoralization throughout the coun try, which, in return, is tbe reward of its abandonment of principle. Let us see the variety cf their candidates for Speaker, with a view to aid in fixing tbe proseut positiou'of parties. THE CANDIDATE OF THE ADMINISTRATION'* ISTS. Their caucus candidate for Speaker was the gentleman treui Virginia [Mr. Boeock } who has been identified with the legislation of the last iwelve years, and who, iu 1850, after the passage of the compromise measures, in com pany with thirty seven other members of the Democratic party, (Governor RlcDowell, of Virginia, not included) issued an address to the people of the South, from which the fol lowing is an extract: "We, whose names are hereto annexed, address you in discharge of what wo believe to be a solemn duty on the most important subject ever preset!t< d for your your consideration. Wo allude to the conflict between the two great sections of the Union growing out of a difference of feeling and opinion in reference to the relations existing between the two races, the European and the African, which inhabit the Southern section, and the acts of ag gression and encroacemt'd to which ;t has led.— The conflict commenced not long alter the ac knowledgment of our independence, and has gradu ally increased until it has arrayed the great body of the North against, the South on this most vital subject. In the progrsss of this conflict, aggression has followed aggression, and encroachment en croachment, until they have teaeheJ a point when a regard for peace and safety will Dot permit us to remain longer silent ."— See Benton's Thirty Years' Yiew, p. 734, vol. 2. This manifesto was signed by the present Senatore from Virginia, Senators Fitzpatrick of Alabama, Yulee, of Florida, Johnson of Ar kansas, and others not now in publio life.— Mr. Seward has been most severely criticised, and most vehemently denounced, for having said in his Rochester speech, in 1857, that there was in this country an "irrepressible conflict between opposing and enduring forcea," by means of whieb the United States will, sooner or later, become either entirely a slaveholding nation, or entirely a free-la bor nation. The conflict he speaks of is one of ideas. That of which the Democratic man ifesto speaks is, "the conflict between the two great sections of the Union," which is the in terpretation placed by the Democrats on Mr. Seward's remark, and at which they have ex pressed utmost horror. Thus, the doctrine of the "irrepressible between the two great sections of*the Union," held up as a fearful phantom by the Democracy, has a De mocratic paternity, is at least ten years old, and, ao lopg ffitfte, received the endorsement of the Democratic caucus caudidate for Speak er, who, ici turn, has been supported and en dorsed by every member of the Democratic party on this floor. Failing with the gentleuiau from Virginia, they rallied upon his colleague [Mr. Mulsod] with the same result. Twenty of thetn then voted for the gentleman from Virginia, [Mr. Botelor,] who is widely known as a South American; was a member of the Philadelphia Convention which nominated Mr. Fillmore in 1856, and is in favor of a Congressional slave code for the Territories. Forty of them then voted for the gentleman from Tennessee, [Mr. Maynard,] who, though presented as an old-line Whig, and as never a member of the Know Nothing order, had polit ical association in the last Congress, and has in this, with the South Americans. They gave eighty nine votes to the gentle man from Texas, [Mr. Hamilton,] who is under stood to be in favor of a Congressional slave code for the Territories. They gave eighty-three votes to the gentle man from California, (Mr. Scotr,) who bad pre viously denied, cn tne floor of tba House, the power of Territorial Legislatures to prevent tha existence of slavery in a Territory, and who thereby, placed himself oq the south sido of tho Cioeinnati platform. Thay gave, once thirty-three and again thirty seveu votes; &ud later in the session, ninety one, and again eighty-five votes, to. the gentle man from lllioois. (Mr. McCleraaud,)who claims for the Territorial Legislatures tha power de nied by the gentleman from California, (Mr. Scott,) but who considers tho existence cf the power a judicial question, to be affirmed or de nied by the proper tribunals, to whoso decision he is willing to defer. It is but just to state, that nine Southorn members who voted for one or more of the other Democratic candidates, declined to vote for tho gentleman from Illi nois. The Demooratio or Administration party also gave all their votes, save two, to tho gentleman from North Carolina, (Mr. Smith,) who, calling himself a W big, twice received the support of the Americans of his district, to an sxtentsym patizes with and approves of thoir principles and policy, aod is now here by virtue of that support; who ads with the South American party tn this House; who supported the gentle man from Virginia (Mr. Buteier) when he was the South American candidate for Speaker, and subsequently the gentleman from North Caro lina (Mr. Gihner) when he occupied that posi tion; who was placed before this House by tbe j South Arnerioau member from Kentuoky (Mr. Mailory) as tbe candidate of that party, nomi nated iu a full caucus, at whioh the Northern member of the party (Mr. Briggs) says he was present*, 4 aud who received the votes of that en tire delegation on this floor. No one who wit nessed oan ever forget that scene, as one by one, first rapidly, then more and more slowly, the Demooratio members fell out of their own line into another, until all but two, convenient ly forgetting the bristling deolamio - of tbc Cincinnati platform on the subject of Atnri csctsip, and the unrepealed resolutions of the Democratic members of the Thirty-fourth Con gress, placed their votes side by side with those i)f the South Americans of the House, whose position and doctrines they have rooentiy assail ed with intense*! bitterness. Phe county from which 1 come yet rings with Democratic protestations of undyiog hostility to Americanism in all its forms. On every hill top, in every school bouse, from every stamp, there has gooe op this one all-absorbing tallying ory. I have never doubted its insin BEDFORD mmmWR, cerity. It was a man-trap. it was too persif tently made to be honestly meant. All over the land there was, for a time, the same expression of opinion; and the various Stato and county platforms pledged a ceaseless warfare with Americanism. On the 271 ij of January, 1860, in the House of Representa tives of the nation, there was furnished indu bitable evidence that another issue absorbs Democratic devotion; that a new question his dwarfed the Americau, into insignificance; and that Democratic profession of hostility to Amer icanism is as meaningless as Demociaih}pro fession of protection in 1844, and fidelity to free labor in 1856. Now, let me recapitulate the variety of can didates whom the Dnmoorals in Congress have more or loss generally supportod, and the va riety of doctrines tbey have endorsed. They voted for the gentleman from Virginia, [Mr. Rooock,[ who voted for the repeal of the Missouri compromise, sustained the Leeompton Constitution, and in 1850 proclaimed, iu its broadest aud most offensive form, au irrepressi ble "coufliet between the two groat sections of the couutry.'* They voted for the gentlemen from Virginia, [Mr. Millsou,] who voted agaiust the tepcal of the Missouri compromise. Tbey voted lor the other gentleman from Virginia, [Mr. Roteler,] who, a South Ameii oan, repudiates, like the two preceding, popu lar sovereignty, aud is in favor of a Congres sional slave code for the Territories. They voted for the gentleman frotu/J'tuees see,[Mr. Jlayuard.] who,a Whig with AiWicau assuoinious, supported the Lceomptcu-Con-iti tution, and scouts at popular sovereignly. They voted for tbc gentleman from Texas, [Mr. llmiiltoD,] who is now a Demoerwf, and in favor of a slave code, and who, in withdraw ing bis name, gravely expressed tbe opinion that the Union was then in process of dissolu tion—a great dissolving view in the . act of disappearing fr.ui mortal vision ! They voted for the gentleiuaD from California, [Mr. heott,] who, a Free-State Democrat, discards popular sovereignty, upon which tbe Democratic party made their successful cam paign in 1856. They supported the gentleman from Illinois, [Mr. McUlernand,] who, a Free-State Democrat, defends popular sovereignty, and objects to a slave code. And they supported tho gentleman' from North Carolina, [Mr. Smith,] who, * Whig with Amorioan associations, affiniliea, and sympathies, and the nominee of & South Ameri can cauou-, reprobates popular sovereignty. Who can say, after such an exhibitio*/bat Democratic doctrine is in practice ? It canaot be hostility to popular sovereignty ; for Demo cratic Congressmen bavo endorsed, as fit to be Speaker, a popular-sovereigoty man. ] caunot be advocacy of popular sovereignty ; for Dem ocratic Cougreesmen have endorsed, at fit so be Speaker, several anti-popoiar-sotereignty men. it cannot be reprobation of the "irre pressible conflict for an endorser of it, of teu years' standing, is their ebosen candidate. Nor can it b8 hostility to Atuericanism i for jAjpeneans and Whigs sympathizing afaem, received tho support of Democratic Uongrcsso men for th high position cf Speaker—tbe third position in the Government. What a commentary is this last fact upon the Liarb' sounding, compreh -nsive, and tweepiug decla rations of tbe Cincinnati platform, about "re ligious freedom'' acd "accidental birthplace !" Alas, thai there should be added to the first using and then betraying pro.ectiocists in 1841, and the free white labor interest in 1856, this last and crudest proof of political insincerity the betrayal of the foreigners by birth and the Catholics in religion, wbo, for safely frojp apprehended evil, sought security in Demo cratic ranks and in return gave" victory to Democratic hosts. How sad the spectucle, ye: how instructive ! iiius much for others—a few words for myself, i have uuifurmly scitd so as to pro mote an organization of the iiouse. I suppor tea first for bpeaker a prominent and experi enced member from Pennsylvania. When be declined, 1 cast my vote for the gentleman from Ohio, [Mr. Sherman,] who had received the largest number of votes on this side of the House, and who was commended to rue by valuable public Bcrvices, by the possession of peculiar quaiifioatiens, and by great parity of character. He was efficient in exposing the Kansas pclicy of President Pierce, with its complicated web of fraud and outrage, and the corruption and extravagance of certain depart ments of tha present Administration; for ail whioh the minions of power owed him icvenge, but the people owed hiuj thanks. Upon his withdrawal, I voted for the gentleman from New JeVsey, [Mr. Pennington,] now the Speak er of the House. In each oase I sustained gentlemen taitblul to the right of self govern ment, (assailod in the last Congress,] to the interests of freo white labor, and to that pro tective policy which, while vitally important to Pennsylvania, would, if adopted, promote the prosperity of ail the Stv.es. 1 sustained them as patriotic, Uuion-loving, Constitution respecting men, who would do nothing in violation of the letter or spirit of the great charter which constitutes ua one people, and who would yield only with life their devotion to the Union. I did not uudcrstand the promi nent candidates on the other side as occupying this positiou, and I oould not, wonld not, give them my support. lhe cardinal doctrine of my political taith is THE MAINTENANCE OP THE UNION OF THE STATES. 1 will not support aDy uian wbo thinks or speaks lightly of it, or docs not consider it tha greatest good, its preservation a prime-duty, and its de struction the greatest of oalainities. Sir, lam not ready to imperil all which this Government now secures to us, and tbo thirty millions of our population. I expect never to be ceady for it. And because lam not, and would not be, I did not vote for eitber of the gentlemen upon whom the disunion sentiment of this House was concentrated, and whose eleotion would have been acceptable and strengthening to that interest, bir, such a course requires no ex planation or apology. livery man with a patri otic sentiment in his heart instinctively greets, approves, and indorses it. Tbo three miliiou Peunsyivanians whom tbis delegation represent are a unit upon tbis sub ject. No man can have political life among them who is not in harmony witb this sentiment. A secessionist has never been born upon her soil, which is the natal-spot of our Constitution. A disuninnist has never been reared within the settlement of Peuo, whose eastern boundary is made memorable by a tbr.lliug exploit of Washington; whose southern line is a memorial 'of early fraternity whose valleys sparkle with glories of tbo war of independence ; and whose broad bosom is the borne of a people treasuring the just pracepts of their immortal founder, and as abounding in all the elements of great cess as any die sun smiles upon and makes glad. Sir, 1 seek not to pronounce their eulogy. They ueed none. Their history is their highest praise. Let doubters but look around. Oil every band is the proof of her power, pealed forth iu the music of the ringiog anvil, the restless shuttle, the humming spindle, the roaring stack, the shrill whistle, the measu red tread of mighty machinery, aud the flow of cheerful industry through the thousand chan nels opened by the ingenuity of man. Her progress in 4 both moral aud physical development has all the marks of healthful growth, and her proportions, already colossal, do not fill the measure of her vast capacity. In Ler hands are impliinents cf multiform industry ; ID her heart u love of justice; iu her step the elasticity of freedom ; in her mien the dignity of true greatness. She is a noble embodiment of the great thought underlying our whole system — the excellence, aeeretiveness, aud humanizing influence of intelligent, well-applied free labor. The pearefulr.ess. protection,and security which have a (lorded the opportunity of reaching so great results, have been the gilts of the Constitution, with whose history her own is closely intertwin ed. and the Union which is the result of its bene ficient provisions. Pennsylvania cart never tor get her honorable past, or be insensible to the inestimable blessings of the present. Until faith less to both, she will never do or sanction any act in conflict with the Constitution, but will rigidly give to others what she will as ridgidly demand tor herself—all the rights which each can justly claim. She will never do or sanction any not tending to or effecting a disruption of this Union, and will Irown upon, disown, and if necessary put down and trample under loot every man, eve ry laclion, every party whose animating thought is not the integiity of the Constitution, the puriTy ol the (oivernrn.-iii, ami the perpetuity of the Union. With her, i ant devoted to this grand aud inspiring sentiment, ready to follow whither soever it may lead. BEDFORD INQUIRER. BEDFORD, Pa. Friday Mnrnlnr, April 6, IS6O.

The last Gazette trys to figure out the reverse, but it can't do it. In its table it pretends to take the Inspectors, but where that don't suit, it takes last fall's vote , in Locofooo Townships. But even in this, the truthful Gazette JalsiJits the record ia every instance ! The vote for Judge, at the Spring eleotion, bas always been considered the best test. In the first place, the Gazette claims 1? in the Borough, on Judge; it is 10, a gain of 2 for us. It claims in the Township, SO, on Judge; it is about IS, a gain for us of 02.. In Harrison it claims 1, it gave about 2 for us—a gain of 3. Iu Hopewell, it gives us only 14—all the candidates there for Judge were on our side. A fair estimate would be about 65, a gain of 41 over the Gazette's couut. In Londonderry, it claims 25, our Judge was elected by about 4—a gain of 29. In Napier it claims 3, our Judge was elected by about 4—a gain of 7. In Snake Springs, it olaims 23, our Judge was elected by about 2, a gain of 25. TLA Gazette claims the County by 178 majority. We ahow that in the Districts named above, it falsifies the returns by about 109 votes—leaving it just about 9togo on ! Now see bow easy this 9 is overturned, and the majority placed on our side. We will only refer to four districts.— The Gazette says that in E. Providence, C. Valley, Sohellsburg Borough and Southamp ton, "there was no issue between political parties." The correct test then would be to take last fall's vote on the State tjoket, which gives a gain of 51 over the Gazette's zount. — This gives us the County by a majority of 42 rotes! That paper is equally unfair iu other Townships, end we have no aoubt our majority in the County is fully 100!

It refers to those who own va!i:*ble mining rights, whilst others own the surface, very alien they being poor, and having all the taxes to pay.
