THE LO G C ABIN. RAISIN G. * Verily the philosophy of Democritus'of old rested not on sucb'fliinay and shadowy foundations as wears-wont to imagine. Thfl ; ever constant succession of events, which exhibit In themselves every feature of the ridiculous, were enough , to keep one possessed of a lively perception of the ora comica, constantly laughing at the foibles of the world. The varied exhibition of bitterness of mind and contpmptibleness of aspiration— of mean nesa of hope and desire—of petty jealousy and spleen—°f triumphant exultation, attendant .upon success—of woo-begone and lachrymose appear anfees consequent upon disappointment—and the ten thousand other forms in which human nature presents itself to thc wbrld’s view, could scarcely fail of forming a sufficient apology for the laugh ing Plulpeopher of olden times, for maintaining I his own peculiar tenets. Had ho lived in this day, instead of a smile resting upon his good humored countenance, he would have indulged in broad and hearty grins had he beheld the consummate folly and humbuggery which is now manifested by that conglomeration-or-omalgamated-crudities~which‘ constitutes the Federal Party. Incapable of a duo appreciation of those principles which are enter tained and supported by the democratic party, and which have been since t|ie original acquisition of our freedom the Palladium which has guarded our liberties harmless through tho rough battles and fierce contests of half a century, they conceive that tho people, instead ofbeing actuated bypnn cijj/c, are led. astray by mere «am«s,~ and are ih ducqd'td Sustain certain men and measures solely through a momentary factitious excitement. In consonance with this belief they have commenced an avowed system of shallow chicanery and des picable humbuggery, which is intended to operate in the production of factitious excitement until after the election; and happy, they aver, it will bo for them if this deception,can only be played off Successfully .upon the people until that lime.— [Thus by studied Federalists.have | every where raised'tho gathering cry of tho “Log Cabin and Hard Cider” The citizens of our Bor ough have also been witnesses of this same con fomptible game; apd many an exclamation of wonder and astonishment has been made, that men Practice vs Profession. — There are no v r , eB P ectabilU y i more noisv brawlers against proscription for , ’ s . ’ f ou u " U 8 ln s y «ng a ge ,m opinion's sake than the federalists—and none tho P« r P« ?'>»" ° f 8 paltry-contemptibleand who arc more roa.lv at denouncing a demo- B ™3olcsstr,ek.

At length there was seen to approach one upon \vhose marble brow intellect had impresscddtor mighty seal; from his brilliant eye'flashed the fires of in domitable energy and stern resolution; withrhis accustomed fulness dispirit and daring oldsledge he approached the barrel, and with one mighty blow dashed in its head. With such irresfstable force and impetus did the blow descend, that the cider gushed forth in all directions, and covered with its liquid beauties the steel grey pants of him of the available forehead, and as he declares completely ruiijpd them.' -This assertion is tr.ue —baring the stains his urinal operations and greasy fingers had made months previous. Simultaneously each philanthropic hpart beat with eager desire to mani fest the depth oftheirdevotion by too length of their pulls. Then was heard the mingled cry of many voices crying out-— •" Sere, here—Bpmn it Dan,don't drink it all. Hal, leave some for me. Lord Doctor what a long pull; you are full blooded at any rate. Why Captain.' liquor appears to have no chamis for you. My deor Doclbr this eider is at Hard as your fan. Gracious Gr--dJ Sammy—-I thought you were a teeiotaller," &e. src. Some rushed forward and clasping their arms affectionately around the bar rel, exclaimed,—“how comfortable and aoul en liybningis thy cause, O Harrison! here I could lay me down, and fondly kissing this delightful barrel, breathe out iny spirit here.” But; hark! listen to the commanding tone of that ydibe,which t amid the din and smoke and nproar of .the'Biick shot War, was heard cheering the flagging and fainting spirits of his war worn veterans on to triumph and victory; as it reaches the ears Of that emulous'crowd which clusters around that inspi ring' spowpCutse'ye for a pack of. lazy lubbers, are yon going to do nothing,but. dtinkt .Come, takehold of this log.and work likebuggers oir yon will never get^ 1 kWrehi’ But, fejlfar short of that which hadboenmado towards the barrel.' ’There w.as nof fhe ! there.— Verily the inspiration all seemed lohatre gathered clooddikbpToranptherspot.and’lhereandfhete alone to.haye I One;; fey ohe„ thelaborers .disappeared, nntji;-.at length scarce a baker’s dozen remained. upon wbdni devolved' the whole labor; 'Occasionally some eiquisite br i email aid inhdisting a log: in truth soifle aver that;' ever and anon, as the milksops bent their bodies jor extended their arms, the breaking of some of the tapes tvhich kept their stays in order could bo heard very" perceptibly. Indeed, there was one young Scion of the'b'ar there, whose garmonts re semble somewhat those of Oil Sledge's, whoit was apprehended would byhis tremendous efforts nip • turo a blood, ves’sel, if he did not take the precau tion of undoing the ligaments which compressed his waist into such a tiny shape. If this interest ing young man has escaped unhurt, (and we sin cerely hope he has,) we trust that,if ever there may bo occasion for him again to exert bodily ac tivity/ ho will loosen the bonds that prevent a free and unrestrained action of his muscles and inter nal structure,—else the moat disastrous conse quences might ensue. His honor, the ex-Judge was there also. Whilst on the Bench, we remain-, ber to have heard him animadvert in-strong terms on the" immoral and .ruinous tendency there was in erecting Jackson poles. To him such an, act ap peared awfully wicked, and seemed amutter dere liction of those high moral duties which it is the bounden duty of every man to preserve inviolate. "Vet on Saturday the 11thinst.,this.identical indi vidual appeared among the lunatics engaged in e recting the Federal humbug, and actually cut a notch in a log and drank eider out of a gourd! This act of the ex-honorable places him in ho very desi rable dilemma. Ho was either sincere in his for mer opinions, or ho was not. If he did not honest ly entertain his former sentiments, then ho acted the part of a base and contemptible hypocrite. If he was sincere then, and i/iVfbelie'vosdn their.cor rectness, the conclusion Is irresistible that On Sa turday ho exhibited to the world a calm and delib erate violation of plain and imperative 'duty, a reck lessness of character and inconsistency of princi ple which is truly despicable. But probably this shuffler will say with Sam Beltzhbover, “Boj— a circumstances alter cases.” However, bo his ex cuse what it may, such a course of conduct cannot fail td entail upon him the merited contempt ofalp thosoforwhosegood opinion an honest man should bo solicitous. A certain druggist was also there, whose customJtJiasJjeen, _timo_out_of_mind,-to make loud professions with regard to his opposi. lion to all kinds of intemperance. This creature, sometimes ’yclept Doctor, acted in the.honornblo capacity of grog-measurer. Yea, this senseless brawler for teetotalisrh', dealt out, .to use his own 1 language, “liquid damnation” to thoso who wore around him. Oh! consistency, 'thou art a Jpnc!- Can this contemptible changeling, for ehe'Ailure, dare to advocate a cause which oas been brought into.odium through his and- unmanly course! Can he e~ r onetime the brazen impu dence to p'ollnw ' lMs ‘ good cause by [staining its ■principles his slimy tongue! 'Were ho to mention the word temperance.to us, wo would ho tempted to'dash his teeth down his silly throat, thus rebuking his hollow heartpd.hypocrisy. ..Go thou spotted craven and pitiful backslider, and repent and .atone for thy. meanness and'folly.' And there too were some half dozen candidates for the office of high*'Constable. Verily they labored faithfully; supportedjjy the pleasing thought that ere the sun Went 'down they.should be well re warded- for their toil and sweat., But before the last rays of the declining sun had ceased to gild the hill lops, all, save one, hadtheirbuddingpros pects rudely blasted. The announcement of the result gladdened the heart of one, but came like a baleful cloud over the sunny sky of all the rest.— There was one present, who by-his whole life had proved himself conscientiously opposed to hard work; yet as some inducement to the Federalists to appoint him, he actually labored that day. There was another, poor fellow! ho too assisted in raising many a log, and also manifested his zeal by drinking copiously of cider. But alas! thou unfortunate man. Cold was thy comfort when tho shades of tho evening gathered around them Weak and weary—fatigued and disappointed—dejected and forlorn—lip retired to his homestead. Seating himself upon his worlt bench ho thus soliloquized: “Woiflcl that I was a pig—’cause pigs dont never git disappointed. Pigs never work, and dont do nothing but oat and sleep, and sleep and eat agin. They has an eternal circumlocution of pleasure.— Oh! would I was a pig—a little pig. Pigs dosent build log cabins; yet 1 has helped in'building one for them.” Such were the thoughts that rushed madly through his brain,and it is presumed that if the skull had not been extremely thick it would have cracked. There also among, the number was a big student,we think he ans wered to tlje name of Hehry. It is said him that he once had an idea, but lost it—and has neyer.np to this time been able to sup- ply the loss, Instead of lifting logs, (however he seems peculiarly adapted, for such service,) and pushing cars, wo would merely suggest that Oil worth would be a profitable book for him to read. George Sarcastic, tho Swartwoutor was there al so: he is so little that wo dont desire to waste any time.on him: we only wish to submit.a singlepro- position, viz: If he were to labor one whole day, \l-might bo more creditable for him, and would probably assist in discharging some one of the numerous obligations which his creditors hold a gainst him. Little George, the retired attorney,, who has a mortal antipathy to women, was there and gave the light and. favor of'his benevolenl countenance. Isaac, the rich, came'and dranlj some cider out of the.gourd, and said, “that stun might do for poor people, but I'prefer may good' and Port.” The Calf,' who brayed so boisterously last summer, was there, and,other little articles too minute, -worthless and numerous to mention, . Towards night fbo thirsty earth (almostae tbire tyasa-Har risen man,) was refreshed and revived by a copious shower of rain,-which put an end to their labors. Finding any further progress impos- sible, at that time, they adjourned to M’Farlane’e and partook of a beverage a “Isstle” stronger than the hardest cider. . Come, said old Sledge,, and the Knight of the'Piotnres, and his noble compeer the Knight of the cooked hat and glasses, we have had humbug enough today, let us to night have some of the pure grit. .They had iu And piid nigbt with its, dark eye witnessed them free], be sotted home to,a drunkard’s,couch.’, . . •We shall give the proceedings of Monday, next week; ' Merely remarking that the great and long talked of Federal meetingwas a complete and en tire failure. From the exertions made to gather together a large concourse of people—from the. fa,. dflityaffordedthenvbythe Rail Road, in bringing men here the 'influence wielded jn their favor, bypower.bribeiyandcorrnption.tKere' was causa to apprehend that a, vast, multitude of the piebald ingredients of the Federal Party .would > be prosentatthegroat festival.

Not more than 250 people Of Cumberland county united with them. Wo are'perfectly confident that, had tho Democrats been, disposed, they conld have 'out numbered-the .Harrison men with ease. For want of time we defer noticing some of the actors of tho scene-ti}l next week. Then we will endea vor to rub down some of the orators, and show the falsity of their assertions—and prove that the epi thets “demagogues,rascals,villains, soapstibks,de-, faulters, mean, wretched, contemptible and worth less,” which they applied to the supporters of yari Buren, were truly applicable to themselves. I ■ Hard TYmei, —'Tho federalists who aro harping ■upon thfrliard times, and ascribe them to the prea- j ent administration, affect to forgot the scarcity of money arid l.owrmss of prices in 1830, ’2l and '22, when Hour only commanded 83,35 in this hbr ough—and when the same article, in many parts pf Ohio, would, only bring sl,ool—and ■ this was during the glorious administration of the United I Slates Bank, arid while Joseph Heiater_was-Gov 'erhorbfPennsylvaniai - Kii.—The Alexandria Gazette of Friday last, says;—“Shad were selling yesterday, at the fish wharf, at from $8 to $8,60 per hundred, and Her rings at from $2,50 to $3,75 per thousand;.
