The ‘Sober Second
KENTUCKY ELECTION.
The Louisville Advertiser of the 7th inst. says:
By the following' statement it will be pcrceive'd
that this Congressional District promises to vindi
cate its moral character. At the close of the polls
in Louisville lasl night, Mr. Graves had a majori
ty of ■ G 99
Jefferson, Nuttall’s majority - 123
Majority for Nuttall in Oldham,
Trimble and Henry
Nuttall’s majority 47
Throughout the several counties Mr. Nuttall is
evidently gaining, Let his friends move in the
' city and nis election will bo sure. It will be a
triumph of moral and religious feeling—not a tri
umph of party.
The Cincinnati papers state that the returns
from several pf the precincts of Campbell and

off in Mr. Southgate’s (whig) vote from what it
was two years ago.

Messrs. Editors:—Casting my eye, on last
evening, over the Herald I observed ifn edi
torial article (hat struck me as beThg'pecu
•liarly indicative, of the character of that
’‘whiskered pander,” who enjoys the delect
able position of a hired slanderer to that ar
iptocratical print. Having gorged himself
widi spleen and hale, like the • loathsome
vulture. Jib is constantly distilling, through
the columns of his filthy sheet, a foetid hu
mor that carries with it desolation.& death.
Wrapping his leprous carcass in the mantle
of morality and patriotism, and under the
specious pretence of battling against the vi
ces and crimes of society, he sends forth his
blighting arrows of calumny and detraction,
coolly and deliberately,in the blackness and
bitter animosity of his craven soul, to wither
and blast the fair-reputation of, one, whose
talents, worth, and gentlemanly conduct
* are a standing and perpetual reproach to his
own palpable and hotorious destitution cf
genius, morality and worth. How dare this
hired defamer, covertly and by inuendo and
insinuation, make against a man charges of
drunkenness, gambling and debauchery,
which he himself knows to be ullerhj false,

On motion, the following named gentle
men were appointed a committee fo 1 report a
■preamble and resolutions'expressive of the
sense of (he meeting, viz: Hugh Gaullagh
er;Esq. William B. Cummins., John Miller,
'J'dlm- Zimmerman Esq 1 . Col. Lewis Hycr,
John Lehn Esq. Capt G. Christlicb, Michael
Cocklin Esq.S. Rupley, Richard C. Woods,
Samuel Woodburn Esq. and Capt. A. Lanu*
berton.
During the absence of the Committee, the
meeting was ably and eloquently addressed
by the Hon. W. S. Ramsey. The Commit
tee then reported the following, which were
unanimously adopted.
TFheieas, It is the privilege of freemen to
think ami speak their sentiments oh any and
every subject at all times and under all cir
cumstiinc.es. It is their privilege and duty
to approve and condemn, in the strongest
terms, according to the honest convictions of
their minds, the conduct and principles of
their representatives, the, policy of adminis
trations, the principles of parties, and-can
didates for office. Civil liberty and the dig
nity of man depend op freedom of thought
and liberty of speech. Entertaining these
sentirnents we have assembled here this even-’
1 ing to. express our opinions of public men
and hleasures, and the principles of parties.
The great struggle in all ages and under
every form of government has beenrwhethei;-
[ the fc\worTnnny, the minority or;majority of
the people should rule. This has been the
I struggle^—is now the struggle, and will con
tinue to be the struggle. In most countries
in the world the.minority principle has the
ascendency. In some and most counties
the majority principle'is trampled under foot
and dare not openly be avowed. In Francis
it isTfigliting
i landjt lias 6fJate_y.ears_made rapid marches,
towards victory.! The struggle there is now
deeply interesting. In our own country the
majority principle in theory is acknowledged
by nearly, all. It isytcknowlcdged in our
political institutions. But still in practice
the,struggle is going on Juste-as', in’other
countries. The wealthy and aristocratic
minority want to rule. Society here a's well
as elsewhere-is made up of rich and poor.—
The wealthy and aristocratic-few, averse to
earn their bread by the sweat’.of their brows,
here as elsewhere want to rule—tp rule on
principles which'if carried out would sub
vert.our political institutions; 'lt matters
noTwhat' or-party
assume—whether.' federal, anti-masonic or ;
whig. They are known by their opposition |
to the principles and views of the laboring i
and ind ustrious classes which have since the
commenoeinent.of opr government constitu
ted a great political party known and recog
nized by.the name of the democratic party-
To this latter party, we profess to

principles of ,the federal, whig or antinifason

.country.would be endangered should This

ity to the interests of the laboring and in
dustrious classes, and carried by fraud and
dishonesty. It terminated in an attempt at
revolution and, bloodshed—in a series of un
constitutional acts—in cowardice and dis
grace. ' Believing then ns we do in the cor
rectness of the principles of our party and
the the government
trry being Continually in tlieir huntfs, there l
fore,
Resolved , That we approve of the admin
istration of Martin Van Buren; that we be-
Heve jt to be in accordance with the princi
ples of former democratic administrations—
that we believe the interest of our party and.
welfare of the nation require his're-election
to the Presidency; '
*' Resolved, That we-approve of the admin
istration of David B. Porter; that we see in
him a zeal to promote the best interest of
the State and to carry out the public will.
Resolved , That we approvepf the inde
pendent treasury schemeas ; the best calcu
lated to regulate and control an army of
banks, and as the safest depository of the
public funds.
Resolved , That we condemn the admin
istration of Joseph llitner—that it has dis
graced the character of our State by its ille-,
gal and unconstitutional acts—by its prac
tising fraud and corruption—by its
less encouragement of slamlerand defama
tion—by its wicked attempt to prevent mem
bers ana senators from obtaining their seals
according to the constitution and laws, and
to prevent the inauguration of pkvid R. Por
ter who was elected governor by a majority
of votes of more than ten thousand.
Resolved, That we approve of the conduct
of the democratic senators.and representa
tives at Harrisburg in December last,in firm
ly resisting the illegal, unconstitutional, and
revolutionary acts of an. expiring and dis
graced administration.
lieiolved, That we approve of the conduct
of the people at the scat of government and
throughout the State during the buckshot
war, in their, manly and bold resolves and
denunciations of the leaders df that disgra
ced and disgraceful administration whilst at
tempting to subvert the constitution & laws
under the protection of the bayonet and can
non.
Resolved, That the democracy of Penn
sylvania is under lasting obligations to Pre
sident Van Buren for ids refusal to furnish
our late imbecile executive and his wicked
and cac.ruptadylsers, with a hired soldiery
to butcher our peace a’nd destroy
oar-government.'
Resolved, That as democrats and citizens
of Pennsylvania we are proud of our distin
guished representative^—the Hon. Jathes Bu
chanan. His long experience in public af
fairs, his eminent talents and devotion to the'
cause of the people have already pointed him
out to the democracy of the Keystone State,
as a tit and suitable successor to President
.Van Buren in ,1844,.
Resolved, That vi'e hgve full faith and con
fidence in the capacity & integrity of Wil
liam S. Ramsey, Esq. ouiyrepresentative in
Congress—.that he will represent us honest
ly and with'ability.
Resolved, That we condemn and repro
bate the unfounded and'slanderous insinua
tions against his character which lately ap
peared in the Herald and Expositor of this
place.
Resolved, That we earnestly protest a
gainst the suicidal; policy pursued by the
national administration, in retaining in office
political enemies who use the influence their
official stations confer to defame and pros
trate their benefactors. The whig, antima
sonic proscription lately exercised in Penn
sylvania, which extended even to the hum
ble laborers on our public works, demands
ofevery friend of the national administration,
in Pennsylvania, to ask that so faras Penn
sylvania is concerned' the grievahee of which
we complain be redressed. -i
Resolved, That we ealneslly remind our
democratic fellow citizens of Cumberland
count}', of the importance of the coming e-
IcCtion, and of attending the primary meet
ings for the election of delegates to form a
County Ticket; and also of the necessity of
union and concert of action in the support
of the ticket formed by the convention, as
the only means to secure success and.the
triumph and perpetuity of republican princi
ples against the treasonable plots of a reck
less minority who have recently attempted
to usurp and retain power, against the flat
of the ballot box, the constitution, -and-the

From, the-Harrisburg Reporter,
PENNSYLVANIA INCORPORATIONS-
Froin d report made to the housoof Representa
tives, at its lato session, by tho flecretary.of the
commonwealth, wo the amount of bank
ing capital authorised, in the state, is $57,450,000,
of which $35,000,000, or more than ONE HALF,
is held by the United States Bank—Whilst the
members of the legislature of Pennsylvania abided
by tho. old German rule of restraining corporations,
we citizens west of Market street, Philadelphia,
never felt the fluctuations in the currency, so fre*
quent for the last few years, t Our banking capital
then, was about $20,000,000, which was amply
sufficient lor all useful purposes;-and had no suen
increase been'made in its amount, as took placo
during the notorious winter of 1836, institu
tions would have been paying specie during tho
period of **tlio*BUBpen9ion; ” in lieu of issuing the
“shin plasters” of irresponsible and*illegal cor
porations, But wd were doomed to havg a fair?
specimen of federal misrule, and dearly have we
already paid for it. That tho next 37 years of tho
“chartered monqpoly” may 1 not produce greater
evils, it ought to bo the cardinal principle of the
democracy to prevent. That portion of the body
politic have tho power to do so, and wd must mis
take them very much If they do not oxerciso it.
From tliis report, wo also glean that the number
of banking institutions-is 61—of loan companies
3, with a capital of sl,soo,ooo—that tho savings
institutions number 13, with an aggregate capital
.of $650,000j which may bo considered fortunate,
for they are unquestionably the most mischievous
institutions chartered by__the commonwealth.,Jm
they are at present condut/cd. However benevolent
they were at their inception, that charity has de
parted from them, and for the very beau ideal of
grasping, avaricious, vicious shaving, one has only
to point to a “savings” institution, and it is found
in “its might;”—of coal companies 22, with a
capital of $6,525,000—0f rail-road companies and
rail-road and coal cortipanies, 93, with a.capital of
$35,674,500—0f canal navigation companies 30,
with a capital of $16,351,000 —and oi manufac
turing companies 16, with a capital of $1,74£,000.
The most of this latter class of charters, never
■went into activo.opcration, as they principally arose
from thfe speculating mania so prevalent during tho
lato war, and were for tho 'purpose mainly of- ma
king woolen and cotton goods, which people have
since found out, can bo made quite as well and
profitably, by “individual enterprise.
Tho aggregate number of these incorporated
companies are 288, and their whole ; capital a».
mounts to tho enormous sum of $11%892,500.
Well may the well wisher of Tree institutions
pause, aud enquire what will be the effect of all
this binding together of wealth, upon the institu
lutions of “the land of the free”—the-country
which had. among her sages a Washington, a Jef
ferson, anti a Franklinl

slipping, and is a good guide foi ; a farmer to tell
how much motion-n power has. As there are
some persons continually talking of. their im»
provements, a man with half an eye* by. taking
notice of the pully can tell that it ik all a hoax.
Among numerous other advantages which the
above machine s over all others now- in
use are' the fixtures
ject to.friction, every pivoi cup suffi
ciently large to contain half a gill of oil, with a
\ight cover to keep the. contents perfectly clean,
which furnishes each pivot with an ample supply
of oil at all times; so that after the machine has
.been used ix day or two eight hundred.or!a thou
sand sheaves may be thrashed without slopping
or injuring any part of the machine. The under
signed has frequently seen-more metal worn off
hi thrashing two hundred sheaves fur want of oil 1
than would have thrashed several large crops
with proper care am! attention. During the
past yearupwards of fifty of the above machines
have been sold in this and Union county, ‘sever
al of which have been thrashing almost constant
ly during the thrashing season, and as a test of
their superior claims to durability, the cost for
whole number has not exceeded
fifteen, Notwithstanding there have
been, speaking, no repiars need
cd, so;far from following
the customWy rule, of taking less care to have
them well built when once introduced, has made
several ( important additions.calculated to add
materially to the strength and durability, of the
