Correction .Wo* were in error last week in
claiming Mr. Henry Crist, of New Cumberland,
as a democratic Judge. Our mistake grew out of
misrepresentation on the part of a person who pro
fessed to know his politics. We have since learn
ed tint Mr. O. is a federalist—-consequently our
list of, Judges for Cumberland- county, sbduld
stand J,9 democrats to 7 federalists.
We arc always anxious to publish the truth, let
it be agreeable or otherwise, for we hold that in
politics, as in morals, “truth is mighty and must
prevail.” Nothing is to be gained by a contrary
course, and we arc always mortified when wo sec
misrepresentation in a democratic journal. In the.
opposition newspapers we expect nothing better,
ns sole object appears to be to mislead and,
deceive by fakcluoads, in order to bolster up their
sinking cause. But democracy needs not such
aids: It’s principles are based on eternal truth, and
it is only necessary to make tbefft known to re
ceive the warnvaml hearty support of’ an intelli
gent republican people..
THE LATE ELECTION IN CUMBERLAND
- COUNTY.
To satisfy the curiosity of our readers, and \o
show.our friends at a-distance that old Cumber
land is sound tp we have carefully com
piled from the returns filed in the Prothohotary’s
office, the result of .the recent election for Judges
(this being- the test vote of the relative strength of
parlies,) in the different boVoughs and townships.
The aggregate Democratic majority is actually
880; but as our candidates were elected without
ony regular opposition in Dickinson, Frankford,
Newton, Mifflin and Silver Spring, wo have, in
order to do justice to both parties, taken the ma
jorities of last Hill in those townships as a safe
criterion to go by—in the other townships and
boroughs we tike the majorities of Friday wcckJ
I3y reference to the subjoined table.it will be
perceived that our majority in the county is 500—
and this, 100, tvhen only about of the
voters of the county appeared at Hie polls. Had
there been a general turn-out* such as lakes place
at the fall elections, the democratic majority would;"
in all prdbabilit}’, have reached'Boo.

Democratic hiaj.
There are one or two individuals in tins borough
professing to belong to the democratic'party, that
are doing every- thing they, can secretfrpfrto aid
Harrispn. We have our eye upon
them, and shall make them define their position
t shortly. In the mean caution our country
friends against these wolves in sheep’s clothing.
They can be easily .known by their versatile and
sinuous course in politics, and by their loud blus
tering about the hardness of the times and the
scarcity pf money. We shall name them, if need
be, hereafter* *
A somewhat exciting and angry correspondence
lias recently taken place between the Secretary of
Stateahd the British Minister at Washington, on
the subject of the North Eastern. Boundary ques
tion. From the ijne'orthe Secrefcuy’s.lcttcr we
are induced; to believe that,' unless the British
Colonial governments desist from their acts ofj
aggression oh - the disputed territory, the President,l
will be obliged to regort to such measures as Jwill
- vindicate the' insulted majesty of the nation, arid 1
expel the invaders from onr soil. -
That this'vexed question will terminate in a .jvar
we. hive, all along believed, and the sooner the
country-is placed in a proper situation to maintain
its rightsi the^ hotter. “In time, of peace prepare
for war.”—-Was the language of tboFattler of -bis ]
country.#

THE “HERALD”—AND THE FEDERAL
. CRESS GENERALLY. - ;
We are but little surprised (for such things are
usual) to read the false results furnished by the
lost federal organ of this pla£e, in regard to the
recent election. However common such misrep
resentations may bo, and however palpable their
design, it evinces a degree of flagitious fraud in
excusable in the prosecution of any project.. The
lame effort at exultation is visible Ihrouglioutrihe
burly shout dies strangled in the throat: no ono
misapprehends its purpose. Under this labored
delusion the garbled statement presenting, here, .a
false array of figures—and, there again, excising
a particular defeat, finds a shabby raiment.
But why this habitual want of veracity] Why
this industrious dishonesty] .Why witllold what
common integrity *would allow] Claims arc un
truly assorted to successful competitors: The num
bcrofchosen.political friends are exaggerated and
of political opponents diminished belo\V the truth:
Democratic majorities are represented less than the
reality: Democratic generosity, in the division of
the honors of office, is overlooked: The paltry
gain of n single voter is a sure prognostic offed
eral predominancy: Trifles swell into the mo'sl
portentous-omens; and-lho accidental-election of-a
whig constable is the pivot upon which turns the
election of the “petticoat Hero.”
Are the. principles and doctrines of our oppo
nents so unsound ns Ur need the bolster of such
factitious aid] Will not truth and candor sustain
them] It is a petty dovice, to support a sinking
cause with the props of falsehood and misrepre
sentation. The integrity of the principles and the
sincerity of their advocates under such resorts, are
at best ambiguous. The press ceases to be a
storehouse of knowledge and a publisher of truth.
It is degraded to the basest of purposes—having
become a mere reservoir of deception and impurity,
from which arc disseminated through the nerves
of society a most immoral and baleful influence.
Falschood'aad gasconade appear to bo the two
essential pre-requisites of a roaring rampant fed
oral whig. Froth and foam are far higher quali
fications than truth and frimkness. Our opponents’
great scheme of successful canvass lies in bursts
of, wild excitement and pompous display. Tothis
end boisterous bravado and extravagant misrepre
sentations arc, with a natural pliancy, enlisted into
service. Truth and fact, as antagonistlcol to this
showy contrivance, are discarded as troublesome
intruders into parly finesse. And as chance of
success recodes, and the prospect of inevitable de
feat frowns upon them,-inflations from this hug*?
bellows of-gasconade are the more, frequent, and
the hoarse shouts of *.* party enthusiasm and vigi
lance” afe vastly multiplied.
The capricious vagaries of the fancy, and the
wild impulses of the desires,.stand in the place of
prudent calculation. Measuring the certainty of
success by the standard erected by distempered
imaginations, and the suggestions of false ropbr-'
ters, in conjunction with the hopes raised by dc
claimers-mad:Avitbju'il(l notions —these sagacious
politicians impose alike upon themselves and their
friends-; The counterfeit coinage, produced by a
dopting for ascertained truth the intimation, of
morbid desires, current circu
lation; and the casual addition of a vote in some
obscure village is trumpeted forth, in all the fed
eral journals, aS'a marvellous change in public o
pinion.
\Vith~mtr political opponents, candidates arc
nominated—-the preliminaries of the conflict settled
—thepolitical tempest roars, and breaks,and rages,
and again falls—the canvass is determined—the
successful competitor installed in office—his term
of service expires;—and all this before the legal
day of election. On that occasion, however, the
Democrats generally manage to elect. The deser
tion of the Democratic party by some grunting
grumbling oaf, balked in somelofty pretension for
which he had ijp merit—or some disaffected cavil
ler, a curse to any party, and the mere automaton
of some more crafty knave, is construed into a
“sign of the times"—a presage, strong as certain
ty itself, of the onward march of Harrisonism.—
This great bubble of vain boast, more huge than
ever before, will, like all others, explode intojhin
air. JjJke its brethren, after the election, the only,
trace that will remain will appear in whining ex
cuses and menaces for the future.
Dcm. Maji Fed. maj.
In respect to the recent local elections, gross
misrepresentation exists in attempting to convey
the impression that Magistrates wele uniformly
rdn as parlizans—in suppressing the actual num
ber elected—claiming m6rc than belongs to them
—and, of consequence, diminishing the Democrat
iejist. And, in regard to Judges; the true test of
party strength—omitting to state Ihe whole num
ber chosen—claiming nine, when scim.only are
federalists—and allowing twelve, when in reality
nineteen democrats are elected—thus givinga false
color to the facts, .and publicity to a statement
wholly incorisistMrwilb the truth. Why were
not the names given. This untrue presentation op
the matter, with fheclumsy attempts at exultation-,
are intended for*party effect. It is a bungling ar
tifice.
Of this conduct we dp not complain* Menhave
a right to adopt such rules of action as they may
choose. 'Truth, however essayed to bo suppressed,
will strugglp into the. light. Of its moral and po
litical influence, they, not we, ore the judges.—*
The people understand the drift of tlio whole mat
ter. v -

Jl Long Sit.—On Tuesday and Wo'dncsday of
last week, tho House of Representatives at Wash
ington continued in session for 39 hours without
intermission—having sat from 12 o’clock on Tues
day till 5, on Wednesday afternoon.. Tho question
before them was the bill for the issue of Treasury
notes. Tho Whigs wanted to prevent its passage,
and therefore tried to get an adjournment—but it
was no go. The Democrats kept them toeing tho
'mark like fine fellows.
It is rumored that the bill giving tlid Banks un
til tho Islh of January' next to resume specie pay
ments, has passed both Houses of thp Legislature.
The Treasury Note Bill passed the U. S. House
of Representatives,, on Friday'last, by a majority
of 44,
State Legislature.
Letter to the Editors, dated V
Haußisnunc, March 23, iS4O.
Contrary to my expectation when I last wrote,
the banking and resumption bill, reported by the
Committee of Conference, was defeated in the
House, on Wednesday, by a vote of .19 to 45.

Democrats, or rather, I-should say, professing
democrats, who voted with thomays, are marked
in italics. Only one federalist, Mr. Pcnnimtm of
Allegheny, voted for the bill,. The members from
your county,, I am happy to inform' you, adhered
manfully to their principles,. They'deserve, and 1
will doubtless receive the thanks of their con
stituents. /
It is’ passing strange indeed that men, claiming
to be the representatives of ‘democratic counties,
shduld so far lose sight of the obligations they
owe their constituents, and the principles upon
which they were elected,. 0.5..t0_ turn, their back?
upon the people, and be willing to let the Bunks
rub riot in their infamous career. But so it is—;
the banks, by some means or other, have now got
the control of a majority in' this house; and' wo
may set it down for granted, that nothing Which
has a lendency to chcck.lhem in their lawless con
recr .will he enacted the.present session. The
remedy for this abandonment of duty is in the
hands of the people, and it is my earnest wish that
they may promptly, apply the corrective. The
gold of Persia,” more IhaiTiis armies, subdued
Greece—the paper trash of the one is
almost led to believe, appears to possess an equally
potent influence: In the one instance, however,
those who deserted the cause of their .country got
substance for their treachery—in the other, whoever
is led astray by the banks is likely to receive noth
ing but the shadow.
The supplement to the act to incorporate the
Society of Equal Rights, of Carlisle, was read a
second and third time on Thursday, and passed.
The Senate have had a-hilV before them for the
last two or three days, which goes to empower the
banks to issue one, two and three dollar bills to
the amount offonr millions of dollars—and requires
them to loan the Commonwealth 53,000,000 to
carry on the public improvements and pay the
loans due in the course of the summer. The time
of resumption is fixed for thcTfith of January 1811.
The fate of this bill will bo determined in the
Senate, it is thought, to-day, or Monday at farthest
—ani\ I have scarcely any doubt but that it will
pass that body," Several of the democratic Sen
ators have shown a friendly feeling towards it—
rind none motTso”Uianyour member, Gen. Miller,
who uhade a-fe.w remarks in its favor. Should the
bill pass the Senate, there is a sufficient bank ma*
jority in the House to carry it through that brunch,
and you need not he astonished if in my next let
ter I inform you that it is the law of the land.
The truth is, the banking system is so entwined
in the business of the country, and so many indi
viduals (members,of the Legislature loo) are.at
the mercy of these lawless institutions, that no
salutary changes can ho I would it
were otherwise—that I could give you and your
democratic readers, who I know feel anxious on
this subject, 'some more pleasing information; but
-so-it is.—Candor-compels-me-to-admit-that-tlur
banks have the mastery—--and unless a
of different complexion id employed,'"who have
ficm enough lb carry the wishes-of their conslit.
uents into effect, nothing will hereafter.be done to
reform the vile system.
, After' tlie conference bill was defeated in the
House, Mr. Coblhaugh, a member from ■ .
—, introduced-st resolution compelling the- banks
.to resume on the Ist of-lSeptombcr. No action
has yet been taken on it, and. I do not think the
resolution can pass for the reasons above,slated.
- The House adjourned at an early hour tills after
noon,-in conscquencc of an afllicting bereaveincnf
which befel Mr. Eyans, of Armstrong, whose only
daughter, an interesting litflo girl of about eight
years, of age, was drowned in the Susquehanna.—
She had bperi here for several days on a visit with
her mother, and, while playing oh the bank of the
river with several other Unfortunately
slipped in. ,
-Both houses, 1 think, wlll-agrco to adjourn about
the 101 b of April.
Tho Senate bill, Stove mentioned, has just
passed that body, after striking out tho section an*
thorising the banks to issne small notes. Yonr
Senator, Gen. Mitten, voted for it.

Her of James Uavidson, in the I9lh year of
her age.
“Asthe bird tolls sheltering nest, ’ .' , ‘“
When the stprm in the bills is abroad j
To her spirit hath flown from this World of nnrest,
Torepose en'the bosom of God: '
Whore the sorrows of earth never mofe
May fling'nyer its brightness a stain: '.
Where in rapture and loye.it shall over adore
With a gladness unmingled with pain.
There’s rejoicing and joy ’mid tho sanctified host,
For a spirit in Paradise found!
Though brightness hath past from the oarth,
1 “Yet a star is now-born in the sky, ,
And a soul hath gone home to the land of its birth,
Where are pleasures arid fulness of joy!”
It is appointed unto all the living to die,
anil neither age, sex, nor station can prevent
the approach of that messenger who heralds
the passage to the tomb. He oft times pass
es, by age, infirmity and decrepitude,- and
abides with the beautiful though
happy.- Whenever he appears his presence
is marked with sorrow—and his departure
accompanied with tears, Even when his
victims have, by wasting disease, sunk slow
ly and expectedly to the tomb, we cannot
refrain from mourning, but when the sum
mons is given to one in the bloom of health
and the flush of hope, and happy in the en
joyment of every earthly pleasure—our
hearts are doubly saddened, and we fe.bl al
most inconsolable nt> bur loss.
The subject of the present notice was em
inently blessed with every advantage that
can renderl i fetlesiraßlcT possessing, youth
arid health and friends, whose hearts’ tend
rils were closely knit with hcr’s, and ren
dered capable by the refinements of educa
tion, of partaking largely of intellectual
pleasures—there was nothing wanting to .fill
up the- measure of her earthly happiness.—
But, nlasl how fleeting are the joys of this
transitory existence—in - the midst of these
blessings —in the spring time of life—-ere her
sky had been dimmed by a cloud, she was
summoned to fake up her passage through
the “dark valley of the shadow of death.”
It is a source dfisvveet_consolatioa.to-hcr
"afilicteiJ surviving friends, and of praise and
thankfulness to God,'that, though earth’s
ties were most endearing to her, yet she had
given the richer feelings of her heart to Ilea:
ven, and that she viewed ns the
door of entrance to that bright home of glory,
.where all (ears are wiped away—where pray
er is lost in praise—-where death is swallow
ed up in victory.
With a mind calm and possessed,
fained by an unfaltering trust in the God of
her salvation, she departed from life “like
one who wraps the drapery of his couch a
round him and lies down to pleasant
even in death a sweet smile of seren
ity dwelt upon her countenance.
Farewell! thy-life
• A wealth of records, and sweet feeling given,
From sorrow’s heart the faintness to remove,
By whispers breathing less of earth than''heaven.
Tfins rests thy spirit still on those with whom

Bidding them make, an altar of ihy .tomb,
Where chiVslehcd thought may ofl'er praise to
