The democrats of Cumberland-, hand in
■ hand with their, brethren in other parts of
'the-State, and United States, have uniform?
ly evinced ah attachment to these good, old
■and well tried usages. When marching un
der their banner our course has been onward,
•and always graced with the spoils of the ene
my. But the moment they were forgotten,
discord, enmity and defeat were sure to fol
low; and the land, instead of rcjoicinguhder
the gentle care of those who sought the true
■ "interests of the people —put on the dark and
chilly garment of gloom, as'the black flag of
moitopoh/ and corruption was unfurled from
the heights of the Capitol.
Once again have these usages been put in
to requisition, gnd we are worn called upon
to aid in the good cause. Throwing aside
any and all personal feeling, let.usrallya
round our nominees, and prove to the world
"that we are governed by principle and not'
by interest. The ticket has been fairly and
properly formed. Every district was fully
represented. The choice of the convention
was made upon mature deliberation. It is
a judicious one, and it will -triumph* For
the cry of “the ticket, the whole ticket, and
nothing but the ticket,” is resounding thro’
■our vaMey,and will not cease till the people
have ratified the choice of their delegates.
I had intended to make some remarks op
nn volunteering and the ticket, and also the
insidious course of the Herald, but will re
serve them for .another communication,
Messrs .Editors: —Should you he so kind
•as to give publicity to the these fqjv lines,
you would oblige many docent persons, Who'
licit really ashamed .with the contents ol the
last Herald, If'secms to one that its Editor
in discharging all the croth-cdncss of his
bittci' mean' soul, has proved Jiimself to be
unworthy“theTiaimTof'a ‘gentleman, nay that
of a Christian. If decent language be the
passport fur a man to gentility, let any one.
read the last number of the ‘Herald’ and
see whether its.hircd Editor has not in his
■philippicn agiinst the three democratic can
didates, proved himself more worthy the
name of a blackguard than of a Cicero. If
charity be the foundation of Christianity, how
can men whom I see frequent churches & re
ligious institutions with “contracted mouths
mid cast-d(fwn looks” as thoughts
and souls were up to'hcaven, (tow can they,
■I sav, thus endeavor to crush info the dust
of infamy the characters of their fellow-men,
and corrupt the morals of the cnmmunityl!
-How can they forget in what manner Jesus
discharged the frail woman? 1 shall not en
quire whether the charges of the hypocriti
cal scribblers ofthc Herald madcagaiiist the
afore-aid individuals be true pr'not. Lotus
suppose them true; and wbat of it? Every
man _ hath some dark pages in his life’s book.
If there be one without fault, let him be the
first to cast the stone of infamy against the
character of others. No, no; oftetrtlic same
crimes meet with a different late. One de
faulter is dying in the dungeon, while an
other is flourishing in the French capitol.—
If the mighty c»«6 that edits the Herald, or
any others of his parly, will examine their
■shell-like conscience, for a while, they will
find many deeds \vliich that blind deity that
rules the rascals has kept unknown, though
not entirely. We too know of night de
baucheries—deceptions to betray innocence
—gambling, etc: Aye—and though the sha
dow of a scat in the Senate be large enough to
cover many a crime, yet something has tran
spired which would make the high blood of
many foolish pompous aristocrats run-faster
Tor shame. But fie with the faults of men;
i fie with the language of defamation; fie with
"■aughTagainst chrisfia'n charity. As politi
cians we shall adhere to our principles, as
Christians wo shall forgive the faults of men.
without fear of being helrayed; fur as .Ame
rican cili/.ens wo confidently trust in the
sanctity of our .laws.
Spare then yottr muddy ink; chat.no long
er yeswdllcn frogs of aristocracy; for all yc
may say I 'will only cover with shame your
■sepulchral countenances, without affecting
in the least, those sound principles upon
which democracy.'is established—and the
next election will prove it;

Vo this People of Bedford Count?.
A sketch of the events which took place at. flar
risburt r. during the -
No. 5,
Fellow-Citizens;— ln recording an in
surrection, so serious as to, threaten the ov-
, fcrthcowof-a-grcat-rcpul)lic-hy-ahand.of-ob
scure political adventurers whom a train of
fortuitous circumstances had placed in un
meritecl official capacity,., it is necessary to
file aivJy as of record the names of the men
who sought to embrue their hands in-the
blood of better men than themselves, and
Cause them to be placed in bold relief on the
pages of history as traitors to the country.
In mixing up.incident with opinions neecs
, .sarily arising out of the facts narrated, I
have'sought to impart to .iriy felloy citizens
the .views I entertain of events which have
, , passed, and hint the mode of .avoiding their
recurrence.
The .Hall of Representatives'was not de
i aertfed a momcntTluiTng'the day of lliiTStli.
. Immediately after the evacuation of tho Ar
senal,’ the Hall-was again filled with'an anx-
though. silent multitude. Theßump
had been adjourned the previous.
y day, by Mr. Cunningham, to meet at 2J
M. on the sth in the Hall. The importance
'.flf preventing this, movement is known to
every person conversant with the nature of
deliberative bodies. There would have been
but one chair, (dr two Speakers. The laws
and constitution creating the legislative au-.
thorities. of the Commonwealth recognize
- but one'Speaker for eacll body. If two rival
■_ Tlouses, could bccupy-the Hall as was said'
. by the conspirators, we would have'the
iof two. Speakers entertain -
.. ingibUls of a different character, two debatr
ers on the floor at the same time, two sets of
clerks, two sets of printers, two sergeants
at arms, &c. :,lf we sent twoisetsr of laws
:«nd two sets of.Journals,beforejjlje people
confusion would have been established .and
anarchy begun—that anarchy so anxiously
’ sought for by the chief adviser,in the matter,
and his deluded dupes and followers... Be
sides, had we permitted them,to have exer
cised'any jurisdiction in the Hall as an or
.'ganized. body we would have partially’ad
mitted their right, at least-given color t,D
their claim, or acknowledged our own weak
ness and inability to restrain a spurious to
dy from acting in our seats with Legislative'
power. We had resolved to prevent this
stale of things at'every hazard; — ’
The prudence of our course .in Jceeping
possession of the Hall is* fully established by
ntany reasons besides those above stated—l
will quote one more for the present. Wil
liam 13, Rcedi-in his letter of counsel to Hit
ner, dated,Philadelphia, December 17,1838,
says, after speaking-of(the,necessity tif the
presence of the military—the necessity Of
employing them to make arrests of our men,
&c.—“THE CAPITOL SHOULD ALSO
BE PROTECTED WITHIN & WITH
OUT, f by tlfe troops.] That' at the hour
.each [House] ’claims I'Or its Session there
should be no interruption.” That, is- we
wore to legislate under the lances and swords
of a hired soldiery—introduced into our very
Hall—meet at their disperse
at their order. Win, B. Reed had. better
never have given utterance to such a sent\
cnee.-- He says also in the-same ferocious
letter, “that the legitimate House, as well
as the Rump, most only be regarded as a
peaceful assemblage of citizens whose re
spective rights are hereafter to be determin
ed.” By whom were they to be determined
—where is the tribunal before which the re
spective parties, were to plead? Not the
Senate, because they were not only in n state
of contumacy —the members had prejudged
the case—and besides being a co-ordinate
branch, had no right to judge of the acts of
its equal in power. The Supreme Coilrt
could not do it because it is subordinate to
the legislative authorities, and its decrees
would have no.force nor would they bo ac
knowledged in such a case, as legitimate by
the people, -The U. States Courts would
have no right to entertain a bill'in the pre
mises, because they cannot interfere in the
organization of the sovereign authorities of
an ihdcpendenfState"—Congrpsslmsnopow“
er to act in the premises, thq Constitution of
[the United .States provides that alf power
net delegated to the United States is reserv
ed to the respective States; —in short no con
stitutional provision is made,for sucli a case.,
The framers of the Constitution of the Uni
ted Slates and ’of this State -did not imagine
the possibility of Such a contingency. Some’
of the ancient lawgivers, omitted to fix a
punishment for fratricide .because f they
thouglvflhe cnmiiiissumof such a, crime an
impossibility—our, conscript fathers could
not contemplate the existence of such patri
.cidesas Burrowes, &c, and therefore they
failed to provide a punishment for the trait
.ors, or a remedy for their crimes.
The only mode of establishing right in
such cases is a resort to physical’ force. ' If
men in a slate of insurrection wish to es
tablish a minority House, by force or fraud,
the majority or legitimate House has a right
to present a fikm but peaceful resistance to
their pretensions for a reasonable lime. If,
however; the offending body becomes perti
nacious, tlie legitimate body—tlie body elec
ted by a'majority of tlie people—who Id have
a fair rigid to remove them from their seats
by gentle violence. Insurrectionary action
should not be tolerated by the representa
tives of a great people. Tlie conspirators
wished to obstruct the business of tlie coun
try by the bayonet—we obstructed tire bay
onet—compelled the military to retire with
out bloodshed, and finally re-established law,
and’order.
It is_ncccssary to describe--niinutcly tlie
scene which took place on the afternoon of
the sth, inasmuch as it has .been not only
misrepresented in the opposition journals of
our own country, by tlie testimony of indi
viduals taken before committees, but labor
ed and discolored accounts have been pub
lished in the European papers, nii-iking in all
probability an erroneous impression on tlie
people of those countries as to the nature of
the case and the (merits of tlie actors anil
their principles. Tlie crowned heads and
aristocrats rejoiced. They predicted the
dissolution of Republican Government, and
so it was exultingly announced In the.Lty-'
erpool Standard sind other British prints of
the same stamp. The friends of free Gov
ern meat wese,dejected.’ It was Iheßuty-qf
(he Uemo.cratic- party of Pennsylvania to
frustrate those -pmlrctions und*oiiTnsolifTatc

I— The Speaker's chair had been-protected
from the.moment the Speaker left it, until 4
P. M; whei) being exhausted by many hours
anxiety, I.left tlie chair and was proceeding-
Tip the principal aisle,, when I.met Mr.
Spackman who informed me that he was
going to take the SpcakerVChair, organize
and'adjourn the House till to-morrow after
noon.—JL-tuld. hhn there - was no -House in
the Hail. - He said.he raeasit the'Cunning
hani House. * I asked hith what rigTitiic had
to adjourn the Cunningham.House'. : He said
he'was deputized' by, Mr.ti. and as,snon as,
he read some letters which he held in his'
hand he'would certainly adjourn the House.
I urgently requested him not to attempt it,
but joiihd ho.was pertinacious, and immedi
ately returned- to Occupy the Chair. As I
moved through the dense crowd,- some indi
vidual observed iq a low tone of voice, “yoii
will get a ball through your head if you at
tempt-to kcep Spacfcman, from the Chair.' 5
I.answered “we’ll sec about that,”..Perhaps
it was a; threat—perhaps it was a friendly;
admonition. Lbssumed the-GhaiiV; and ob
served the movements of Spackman. In
tense anxiety for the result appuarcd to per
vade tlie multitude which thronged every
part of the Hall, .and the intended action of
Spackman spread iii an instant eyery where.
In a' Few minutes Spackman.advanced to
wards the Speakei-fs platform. I .placed niy
hand.on the desk.so as effectually'to ob
struct liis entrance to tlie Chair.. - As he as
cended the second step, I enquired what he
wanted*! He/said to adjourn the House. I
fold him there was no House in session.—
Ho said the CqmiinghaiVi House, and he
vvould.adjourh it, . I told him he should not.
Hoehq'mred if I vyquldprovent him by.force.
L.toUl him.wejyqul'd.emplby so, iiiqph. force
asbvas riecessafy to effect ou r object. At all
events said I Spackman you cannot come.
A dense crowd filled the spade’in front of
the Chair, on the platform, and at its two
agitation was observed. The
windows were, thrown up bythe; thpid pre
paratory, to a retreat danger.] Many,
individuals sprang on the scats anil desks-of
the. shouting out “Adjourn the
House frotn where. .you- are;
.“Spackman adjourn thd House from where
CARLISLE
For the Volunteer.
A PLAIN MAN,
you are.” I immediately said to our. friends,
“Remove this mad from-the Hall,’?_He was
instantly'seizcd by Major Frederick'Fritz
and Capt. Joseph Hall of Philadelphia, and
1 think Mr. James Humes, of Lancaster. I
exclaimed “Commit no violence bn Mr.'
Spaceman's person.’? -They-responded ‘‘no
no.” Andrew Krause the Sergeant at arms
said “Don’t hurt Mr; Spackman,” and ns
Major. Fritz led him to the door, he said
“They shall hurt me'bcTore they hurt you.”
Mr. Cunningham displayed unusual sagaci
ty in sending a man of Spackman’s fragile
form on such a dangerous' duty, and the ac
cusations against the Democrats as “an in-,
furiated blood thirsty mob” is.not sustained
by the, anxietyof "those who were thus rep
resented to shield his person from injury, cv-:
eh while he was in fhbnttitode of violating
the rules of the House and'tbmpletely in
them p o'Web. While Major Fritz was lead
ing him up the aisle, he said he would ad
jburn’the House from a member’s seat. —
Fritz then tojd. him if he did so, he would
not answer for his safety, Spackman retir;
,ed fropi the Hall. , , •
In the interval a heavy rush WaT madehUd
the folding doors between the Hall and the
Rotunda were burst froth their hinges and
many individuals leapt from the windows
and this too in broad daylight. My mind
was so much engrossed in endeavoring to
detect thc.quarter from whence was to.cornc
the threatened violence to my own person,
that 1 did not hear the fall of the doors.—
That the Antimasons were prepared for mis
chief is undeniable, and therefore the threat
was not to be unheeded. An'Antimasonic
•Senator from Bedford lost a pair of pistols
that day, and a member of the same party
lost one. pistol,; which were severalty found
by Democrats, and carefully secured from,
improper service. Indeed the Antimasons
were very prudent in those matters.
The crowd seemed somcwhattumultuous,
but not violent. Several of thcmmteinptcd
to speak at a time. I was exhausted, by ex
ci'tiim; Clrair iiV charge br
trusty men and in proceeding to my own
seat I met Mr. Fullerton who begged me.to
go back and strive to quiet the tumult. I
told him of my inability to speak. Howev
er at his request I rcturn&fto the Chair and
addressed them in a few words. The citi
zens then dispersed quietly, and the Hall
was soon comparatively deserted.
Thus ended the important events of the
stll, so far. as the House wasTmmediately
implicated, _ • .
