Senator Bigler's Speech.
We intend in our next paper, to lay before
our readers the admirable speech of Senator
Bigler, recently delivered by him at Clarion,
Clarion county, in reply to Wilmot, the abo
lition candidate for Governor. It effectually
exposes that arch-demagogue, and will repay
an attentive perusal.
The Financial Crisis.
The Banks, with few except:ons, have sus
pended in Baltimore, Pittsburg, Washington,
D. C., Wheeling, and other cities. The banks
of Lancaster, York, Reading, and Harris
burg, have suspended—and nothing short of
a general suspension for a short time, of the
Banks of this State is looked for, if they
have not already suspended.
We learn that the Governor has issued his
proclamation convening an extra session of
the Legislature, on Tuesday, the 6th of Oc
tober, to consider the special subject of
Banking.
Tun AGRICULTURAL FAIR.—It is the gen
eral impression that the approaching fair
will exceed those heretofore held in this
county, both in the quantity and quality of
articles exhibited, and the indications are,
that it will be more generally attended by
citizens of our own as well as of adjoining
counties. We are glad to see the increasing
interest that is being taken by our farmers
and other citizens in agricultural affairs, and
we feel confident that our county can give as
creditable an exhibition as any other in mid
dle Pennsylvania, if all interested will but
make the effort to do so.
The fair will commence this day two weeks
and continue three days. The committee of
arrangements are busily engaged in prepar
ing the grounds, erecting the necessary sheds,
stalls, S:c., and it is to be hoped that every
farmer, and manufacturer in the county, or
his agent, will be here with something to ex
- hibit. Indeed, let everybody come, and rep
resent some branch or department of indus
try, and let the world know what you have
been doing and how you have done it.
FARMERS' 'HIGH SCIIOOL.—We direct the
attention of farmers, and our readers gener
ally, to the proceedings which took place on
the occasion of the annual election of Trus
tees of the Farmers' High School of Penn
sylvania, which will he found on our first
page. This important institution claims, and
should receive, the co-operation and assist
"ance of our whole people. That such an in
stitution is necessary, there cannot be a
doubt, and that, when fully established and
in active operation, its beneficial results will
be felt throughout our agricultural common
wealth, all we believe, admit. Then, in or
der to.ive'alize the- benefits which it is the ob
ject of this institution to confer, lot our pea
-ple take that interest in its establishment,
which their appreciation of it would seem to
dictate. Let not Huntingdon county be be
hind in thismatter, but let her thrifty, gen
erOus" hand be seen at work for the common
good.

Black Republican Regard for White
The Black Republican party of this State,
at the present time are acting upon the prin
ciple of the boy who, when asked why he
made so much noise at the door of his em
ployer's store, said "he was not going to lose
a sale for want of hollering!' In all sections
of the State the Black Republican Abolition
papers .are . vociferating for Wilmot, and pre
tending that the masses are in favor of the
negro equality doctrines preached by that
itinerant pedler of treason to the Constitution
and that Union which has made us the hap
piest, freest, most prosperous people on the
face of this fair world. All kinds of appeals
are made to the sturdy inhabitants of the old
Keystone, to swerve them from their attach
ment to the Democratic party and those na
tional principles upon which that organiza
tion is based. We give an extract from the
latest issued in order to cheer the Black Re
publican troops in the coming contest:
Be active, be diligent, be persevering, be untiring in
your efforts. Wherever you have influence, exert it—let
no occasion pass without doing something to promote the
cause of WRITE LABOR. Be instant in season and out of
season, remembering that the cause is worthy for - which
you contend—the triumph of FREE WRITE LABOR over SLAVE
Luxe—and the honor and glory of our Commonwealth is
the product of the labor of her hardy sons of toil. Let not
the Nigger Democracy fasten its blighting policy upon our
State by a supineness on your part. Let not the advocates
of Slave Labor triumph over the friends of Free White
Labor! Let not the beautiful and fertile Territories of
our common Country, by your vote or your carlessness, be
cursed by the blighting tread of the Slave.
This is a specimen of the miserable cant
of these Black Republican, Abolition preach
ers. They assume the championship of white
labor. And how do they propose to advance
the interests of white•laboring men in the
North ? By developing in a proper and Con
stitutional manner those great interests of
our country which afford work to the millions
—by protecting the rights of poor white men
from the crushing effects of monied monopo
lies—by advocating such measures as - will
give the laborer a fair return for his indus
try? Not one of these reformatory steps have
been taken by the Black Republican party.
On the contrary, they propose to promote and
advance the cause of white labor by freeing
the negroes of the South, and bringing them
to the Northern States to enter into competi
tion with white men in all the walks of pro
ductive industry. The Black Republican par
ty are the advocates of slave labor in opposi
tion to that of free white men. This is fairly
established by all their. efforts to place the
colored man on an equality with the white.
The Black Republican party is but another
name fur the ultra-Abolition organization off
our country, and the effects of its doctrines
upon the white laborers was thus set forth in
1853, by Hon. Henry Clay, in a letter to Mr.
Colton, his biographer. A more truthful and
graphic picture of the consequences that must
inevitably flow from the triumph of Black
Republicanism, has never been presented.—
Mr. Clay says :
The slaves, being free, would be dispersed throughout
the Union ; they would enter into competition with the free
laborer—with the American, the Irish, the German—reduce
his wages, be amfounded with him, and affect his moral and
social z.tunding. And as the ultras go both for Abolitionism
and amalgamation, their oldect is to unite en marriage the
laboring white man and the laboring black woman, to reduce
the while laboring man to the cicspi.,ed and degraded condi
tion of the black mon.
No sensible man will fail to see that this
view of the case is sustained by all the teach
ings of history, upon the subject of freeing
the colored domestics of a country. Wher
ever they have been put upon equality with
white laborers, they have injured the latter
to a most serious and disastrous degree. Yet
with these facts indisputably known, the
Black Republican Abolition party, advocate
doctrines which tend to place slave labor on
a par with that of white men, in the North,
and then have the impudence to call that
" doing something to promote the cause of
white labor."
But this nonsensical parade of Black Re
publican sympathy for the white laborers of
the North is fully understood in Pennsylva
nia. Eleventh hour appeals will not avail
Mr. Wilmot and his friends. The white la
boring men appealed to, are fully as intelli
gent as the leaders of that party, which is in
favor of reducing them to an equality with
the colored race both in social and political
standing, and the amount of compensation
received for their honest industry. They
can judge of men and measures, and try both
by facts and experience They know what
party has protected industry, and those who
live by the labor of their own hands, The
free white laborer of the North can take care
of himself without a fear save that proceed
ing from the possibility of a Black Republi
can triumph in the Northern States, which
would fall like a blight upon all the best in
terests of the working man.
Mr. Wilmot is the candidate of this dan
gerous faction, which under the guise of
friendship for the white laboring men of the
North, is attempting to supplant them by
black laborers from the South. His election
would be a fatal blow not only at the peace
and prosperity of the Union, but at the real
interests of all classes of working men in
this section of the Union. Any policy cal
culated to flood the Northern States with col
ored laborers from the South, should not be
supported by Northern laborers Or mechanics.
Such will be the effects of the Abolition
measures advocated by the Black Republican
party, and though at the present time they
i attempt to impose upon the people by affect
ing a regard for laboring men, they are truly
in favor of reducing their compensation, and
to reach that goal would free the slaves of
the . south, and put them in competition with
the white men of Pennsylvania.
Mr. PACKER and the Democratic party is
opposed to all such. doctrines, and hence
claims the votes-of all who are really friends
of the poor white man.--.---.Pcnnsyfranian.
Labor.
Are You Assessed ?
Let every Democratic voter who cannot an
swer this question in the affirmative see that
he will be able to do so before it will be too
late. Look to it, and see that your name, and
that of your neighbor is enrolled among the
list of voters. Do not suffer it to be said by
your fellow Democrat, that through your neg
ligence you were deprived of one of the most
glorious privileges—that of the right of suf
frage. See to it, then. Don't depend upon
others having it done, but go yourselves to
the assessor and see that your names are pro
perly entered. The law requires that you
should be assessed at least ten days before the
election, which takes place on the 13th day
of October next.
The Westfield Argus has the following,
which is not only a good joke, but a fact :
"The best political joke we have heard this
season was " done" on the occasion of 'King'
David Wihnot's speech atErie. An Irishman
who had listened attentively to him, finally
turned to a friend and enquired, " An' that's
David Wilmot, eh ?" " Yes," was_ the re
sponse. " And what is he running for ?"
" Governor." "Governor of Kansas, is it ?"
" No, Governor of Pennsylvania." " Faith,
he said nothing of Pennsylvania. I thought
it was Kansas, sure!"
ThE PROSPECT.-WilMOt is omitting many
of his appointments published with such a
flourish at the opening of the campaign. He
sees that his cause is lost, and would back
out of the canvass entirely, if he could do so
with decency.
The Prospect of the State
The Genius of Liberty says:—There never
was a better prospect for an-overwhelming
Democratic victory in our State than at pres
ent. Indeed many sensible men of the op
position freely concede the election of the
Democratic State ticket; and we doubt very
much if the mass of the opposition have the
least hope of electing their ticket. It is
said by the knowing ones that Hazelhuist
• will outrun Wilmot in Philadelphia and this
alone will elect Packer by a tremendous ma
jority. It is also confidently claimed by the
straight out Americans, that Hazelhurst will
be neck and neck with Wilmot in the gener
al vote of the State. But let the race be
tween the opposing candidates be as it may,
there is but little doubt of the election of
Packer by a largili majority. The opposition
is merely fighting to keep up its organization
with the hope of carrying certain counties
and districts for the local offices: Whilst all
this is true, it does not become. democrats to
remain inactive and trust altogether to the
inherent strength of their cause. "Eternal
vigilance is the price of liberty" and unaba
ting vigilance is the price of Democratic vic
tories. Every Democrat should be prepared
to do battle for his party, should see to it that
his neighbor is aroused to the importance of
attending the polls and aiding in the election
of the whole democratic ticket. Let every
Democrat turn out on election day and work
and be will have the proud satisfaction of
seeing a complete Democratic victory; but if
he should permit apathy to lay hold of him
and remain at home, ho may have the morti
fication of witnessing the defeat of his party
and its usages. It is a true saying that
"forewarned is forearmed."
A Demagogue Exposed!
" Resolved, That we consider the society
denominated the North American Association,
a libel on the character of our country—a libel
upon the Declaration of Independencei,.and
upon the character of those who subscribed
that memorable charter; to its spirit is
anti-Republican, anti-Anzereettn, anti-Chris
tian, and a most jbul and treasonable plot
against Liberty.
" Resolved, That the Association of Native
Americans had its origin with the Federal
Whig Party, THE SUPPORTERS OF HENRY CL3I;
that it is a renewal of the spirit of the odious
Alien and Sedition Laws; that the Federal
Whig Party have openly and manifestly iden
tified themselves with it in the recent charter
election in the city of New York, and is no
less than a declaration of hostilities against
all foreigners who come to our shores in pur
suit of freedom."
" Sink, or swim, live or die, survive or per
ish, I stand by these resolutions."—DAVlD
WiLMOT.
We copy the foregoing literally from
the Bradford Argus, then the Whigorgan of
that county, and we quote it as our authority
in charging Wilmot with the declaration that
" sink or swim, live or die, survive or perish,"
he would stand by those resolutions, which
denounce Americanism not only as " a libel
upon the character of our country," but as
" anti-Republican, anti-American, anti-Chris
tian, and a most foul and treasonable plot
against Liberty," having its origin with the
Whig Party, and intended only to promote
the election of Henry Clay, the Father of the
American System. •
Such was the mode of warfare of Wilmot
then against Americanism—such his style of
vituperation and falsehood against the Whigs ;
such his means resorted to for the purpose of
defeating Henry Clay! And yet this same
dirty, lying demagogue of 1844, now professes
not only to be an American, and solicits as
such the support of those Whom he then . de
nounced as engaged in " a most foul and
treasonable plot against Liberty," but has the
shameless audacity to traverse the State and
seek the support of the Whigs, whom he then
thus maligned, and whose glorious standard
bearer he then labored to defeat by the most
vile and infamous falsehoods. If there re
mains any self-respect among Americans and
Whigs, they •will now teach him a lesson
which will put demagogues like him at rest
for a long time to come.—Phila. Daily News.

The Monetary Crisis
From the Phil'a Pennsylvanian, Sept. 28
The monetary crisis having come, people
once more breathe freely
. and look matters
fairly in the face. There is no unmanly de
spondency, no shrinking from those duties
which altered circumstances have cast upon
almost every man in the community. As
Saturday wore away the feeling of returning
confidence infused itself more generally
among the business men of our city, and
things bore a healthier and more cheerful as
pect. Some of the Banks paid all their notes,
and all, we believe, with but two exceptions,
exerted themselves to accommodate the pub
lic by paying specie on their notes of the de
nominations of five and ten dollars, and adopt
ing also such means with regard to checks,
as tended materially to the convenience of
those having payments to make. These con
ciliating measures were readily responded to
by the public, and a generous spirit of for
bearance pervaded all classes of our citizens.
Men no longer looked at the dark side of af
fairs, but talked of the abundant crops in all
sections of the Union, the vast wealth of the
country, and the certainty of relief coming
if each one would have patience, and all as
sist to bring affairs right again, by industry
and co-operation.. The confident belief which
took possession of the public mind, that the
indebtedness of the different banks will be
fully liquidated, no person losing a dollar,
also acted most soothingly upon the excited
masses, and made them easy and hopeful for
the future. Indeed, we can safely congratu
late the community upon having weathered
the height of the storm, and with prudence
and caution the bark may be safely brought
to port once more.
The continuation of
. specie payment upon
notes of the denomination of five and ten dol
lars, was a wise and prudent step, and must
be continued at all hazards. The community
would not tolerate any measure calculated to
flood our business avenues with a paper issue
below the denomination now fixed by law.—
We have had too much experience to again
be cursed with such a currency as used to in
fest our State, and injure the business of its
citizens. There is an abundance of gold and
silver to furnish a circulating medium up to
that point required by a healthy condition of
trade and commerce, and those institutions
whose notes are based upon the precious
metals, must see that they are kept , in active
circulation. The community have acted with
prudence and forbearance to the Banks; it is
now incumbent upon these institutions to
strain every neve to keep their charter en
gagements with the community. if this be
done, there will be no want of sympathy
and co-operation on the part of the commu
nity at this crisis.
We understand that the Governor has
agreed to convene the Legislature for the
purpose of considering what relief, if any,
should be extended to those Banks whose
charters are liable to be declared void, under
the Act of 1850. The whole question, as to
the reform necessary to be engrafted upon
our banking system, will then be opened for
full and free discussion. It is a grave and im
portant question, one that should not be
treated with careless indifference, or deter
mined without an intelligent examination
into all the facts relating to the workings of
our present financial system.
From the Pittsburg Daily Union, Sept 28
The Exchange, 'Merchants' and Manufac
turers' and Citizens' Banks of this city made
a partial suspension of specie payments on
Saturday. This course, we hope, was dicta
ted by a due consideration of the best inter
ests of the several institutions and of those
whose property is entrusted to their keeping.
We trust that this will continue for but a
brief period, and that the worthy directors
of these institutions will find it consistent
with their duty to all concerned to follow the
course pursued by the Bank of Pittsburgh
and Mechanics' Bank. The Iron City Bank
having but recently commenced operations,
and its business being therefore but contrac
ted as yet will doubtless, in no great degree
be affected by the present financial troubles of
the country. The Mechanics' and Bank of
Pittsburgh by a resolution of their several
Boards, relying upon their ability to meet
every demand, have determined to honor
every draft as heretofore, and to pay in gold
every claim upon them. The Bank of Pitts
burgh, we are informed, was in 1839, the
only bank in Pennsylvania which maintained
her credit untarnished, and in one week
after the run upon it, the very men, who
drew out their deposits, returned with their
gold, preferring the security of such a bank
to the danger of loss and robbery. Thus we
do not doubt it will be now. The Banking
Houses which meet every demand for a few
days, will find more gold returned upon
them, than has been withdrawn.
We believe that all our Bankers and other
Banking institutions continued open and able
to meet every liability, and that such will be
the ease throughout.
MONEY PANIC.—The panic in the money
market in New York and Philadelphia, is
unprecedented. Failures among men of busi
ness occur every day. A number of Banks
in New York and New Jersey have failed.—
Stooks of all kinds have fallen 20, 30 and 50
per cent.
Xtga,.. In 1846, the Harrisburg Telegraph,
then the State organ of the Whig party,
spoke of Wilmot as follows—an opinion that
was republished and endorsed by all the
Whig papers in the State :
"But one BRITISH FREE TRADE TO
RY was found in all Pennsylvania, and
"that was Wilmot of Bradford. The execra
"tionS of every FRIEND of Pennsylvania
"will fall upon and follow him until he reach
"es that place where the worm dieth not and
"the fire is not quenched."
The annual allowance to Queen Vic
toria is close on $2,000,000, in hard cash.—
She has other advantages, such as being ex
empt from house rent and taxes, having her
different palaces kept in repair, and so on.—
She has the income of the Duchy of Lancas
ter, which is about $150,000 more. She has
appropriated to herself, since his birth, the
Prince of Wales' $125,000, from the rental
,of his Duchy of Cornwall estates. In a
word she is very well provided' for, it must
be admitted. Her husband has a Parlia
mentary life dower of $150,000 per annum,
and about as much more accruing from lu
crative appointments, which his affectionate
wife and generous sovereign has heaped upon
hint. It does not cost him a cent for the ex
penses of living, for the Queen provides all
of that Victorta and Albert receive between
them, some $2,500,000 a year, and probably
save a third ofthe amount. Fortunate peer
