    To the Polls !
r
To the PaMin
DEMOCR AT?; of Cumberland county, are you prepared for the
r battle on Tuesday next? Bear in mind that next Tuesday, the
ISthofO.ctober, is the day of the General Election, Let nothing,
save sickness or death, keep you away from the. Polls. Your Fed
oral Blue-Light Abolition opponents will be out. to a man. You
must do the same. Let it not be said after the election, that our
majority might have been much larger, had all our friends turned
out. Go and hunt up our democratib friends. Visit them in their
houses and work-shops, and ,urge them by idl'that is dear and sa
cred to Freemen to turn out to the Polls. The crisis demands
your active exertions. Nothing short of an Overwhelming majori
ty ..against them, will satisfy our opponents that the Freemen Of
old mother Cumberland are too intelligent to be humbugged by
LogCabiivs,t!avdCidei , s Co(mSkin3audShinßoncs.—Toensui , e
a triumphant majority, let every Democrat vote on Tuesday—and
Jet him, before he.deposites his vote in the ballot box,
EXAMINE HIS TICKET.
The enemy will no doubt, as is their usual custom, have hun
dreds and thousands of spurio us tickets afloat—and some of them
may be headed “Democratic Ticket,’ 5 andjiave the names of some
of the Democratic candidates upon them, in order to deceive the
unwary. Be not deceived thereby, Examine your ticket careful
ly, that it has the names of all the Democratic candidates
upon it, and that, those names are properly spelled. Remember
that the genuine. Democratic Republican ticket, is—For
CHARLES BELL.
Such is your ticket, Democrats! and to the hearty and vigilanl
support of which yon arc called by all that is sacred to Freemen
Let all personal prejudices be scattered to the winds of Heaven—
and let “the ticket—the whole ticket—and nothing hut the ticket”
_ Jbe_.the watchword, from-New.Cumbei land to-Shippenshurg, from
the North - to the South Mountain. Remember, fellow Democrats,
that bn the result of the General Election, your success at the great
■contest on the 80th of October very much depends. Orice more,
then, we urge yon to the Polls on Tuesday next.

The ltight of Suffrage!
The great feature in Martin Van Buren’s
career ia his ilevoteil friendship fur the right
uf_imiversal suffrage! First among the
Republicans, elected to'tluTNewYork’Con
vention to. amend the Constitution of that
State/was Mr. Van Buren. ‘ By the first
Constitution of New York no persom could,
vote for Governor, Lieutenant Governor, or
Senators, except the owner of an unincum
bered freehold in two
lars, and no person could vote for Represen
tatives except the owner of an unincumber
ed freehold in fifty, dollars. By Mr. Van
Buren’s efforts in the New York Conven
tion to amend the Constitution,’in 1821,
these odious.enactments were abolished ; and
every citizen who had paid taxes or had
done labor on the highway was entitled to a
.yote!.. r . : Tlie barrier which.had-been-erccted
by British Whiggery against the poor man,
which shut him out from the enjoyments of
his rights as a freeman,- was shattered to
pieces, and trampled underfoot,by Mr. Van
[ Buren! ' ■
IN FORCIBLE CONTRAST WITH
THIS,IS,THE FRIENDSHIP OF WM.
HENRY HARRISON FOR THE ALIEN
LAW— by-which, rio foreigner could vote
until he had resided fourteen : years in the
country! But bo further, ami you are* still
more impressed with the'radical. difference
between the party in favor of Van Buren
and the party in favor of Harrison. ,In 1829
there assembled in Virginia, a Convention
for the purpose of amending the Constitu
tion of the. State. First and most.conspicu
ous,among the British Whigs were Benjamin
WntkiiisLeigh and John Tyler, the present
candidate for Vice President on.the Harri
son ticket. ' Mr. Leigh was the-leader of
the Convention which nominated Harrison,
and which' rapt at Harrisburg last December.
In the Virginia Convention to. which we
have just alluded, a resolution was offered
by a Democrat, extending the right of suf
frage to every citizen qualified by residence,
age, and taxation—for, in Virginia, (as in
New York, before 1821,).thcre existed then
(as there still exists) a law providing that
nono but freeholders.should vote. ’ The reso
lution offered, contcmplated'the removal of
this enactment. .. It was bitterly Opposed by
B. W. Leigh and John Tyler, the candidate
fo,r Vice President on the ticket!
During the debate Leigh said: "Slaves in,
Virginia fill the place of the day laborers of
the North.” ■ “Those who depend on'their
daily labor for- sustenance . never 'can enter
info political And whpn the ques
tion came up on the resolution, giving the
fight of suffrage to the poor man, the yeas
were 47, (among them James' Madison, the
venerated Democrat and former President,
now deceased,) and the nays 47, JOHN
TYLER, the British whig candidate for the'
Vice Presidency. IN THE NEGATIVE!
So that, but for the vote of John Tyler, the,
poor men of Virginia might, at this day,
cpj oy the right of suffrage, which they do
not now! Ponder on this fact, voleis; for it
is a part of our history. . ’ ■
•Buy, again, recently in the American Sen
ate, a motion was made by a democratic
member to abolish'thc property qualification
existing in the district of Columbia, and to
give every qualified citizen, (as in Pennsyl
vania) a right.to vote. On this question the
Democratic members all voted in the affir
mative, and the British Whig Harrison
members in the negative! It is not neces
sary to. go any further to prove who is the
friend of the poor man.
Among those who vqted against this inhe
rent right was John Davis, the vile calum
niator of Mr. Buchanan, who tried to create
the impression that Mr. B. was the enemy
of the poor man. Among those who voted
in favor of it, and advocated it, was James
Buchanan! Facts speak jouder than words,
Lancaster Intelligencer. |
From the Vt. State Paper.
SCARCITY OF MONEY,
What is meant by scarcity of money, only
: that the Banks do not discount, .lias the
phrase any other meaning, or has it thateffeef.
For scarcity of money, is there any other
cause? Money is scarce for the simple and'
palpable reason that the banks will not make
it, or will not let the people have it when.it
is made. Can there he any riijMcry a’o.t
this? Why then do dishonest cheats fry to
make the pehplebelieve that Mr. Van Buren,
or the Sub Treasury Bill, or something-per
taining to the administration, has made mon
ey scarce? If (be nine, hundred banks in the
country were under the control of the Presi
dent, —if they were obliged to contract or
expand their Issues. at nis , bidding, /then
might (he blame be attached to him. But
since neither the. President nor (he Govern
ment, have any control oyer these money
makers and money lenders, and since) they
millions of dollars within (he laBt year, can
there still be any ,doubt where lies the cause,
and where (lie blame of hard times? We
commend the following extracts from Gov.
John Dayis’ message, to the Legislature,, of
Massachusetts, in 1834,.t0.the careful readr
ing of the public; ..: .. _ r ... r ; .
- "Fluctuations visit all who have property;
and all who.work (o acquire ’it, with injury,
and compels them to submit to severe sacri
fices. What is called n scarcity of money,
only means that the banks do notdisenunf.
Under a pressure thus occasioned, we have
seen (before 1833) good estates dwindle,-un
til theirpossessors were, left bankrupt. 1 We
have seen LABORERS THROWN OUT
of Employ; or their wages great
ly REDUCED; and business either suspen
ded or dragging'tliosd'Engaged in it toward
min. We have seen. also. gVpat nn-jiefy and
dismay pervade the whole public !” r
■ Again: i.
"Believing that under our present system
\ve niay.be again Avlthesfj of these scenes of
suffering, I cannot relinquish the. hope ■’that
your wisdom-[a Whigliegislature j will de
vise some way of giving greater .stability 'to
the local currencyJ!?,
jyAnd again: ;
'•‘Rxperiencehas long since proved that a
METARIG CURRENCY !s least liable to
| fluctuations; and it is to be hoped the earliest
opportunity will be. seized to. Return to it so
ifar'Jdt hdet a? to rectijyfthe present credit
pernicious fluctuations”
It will be recollected that this same John
Davis is now oneofthe leading- whigs of the
day—a' Senator from Massachusetts. The
reader will comparing these ex-
4he present-slang whanging of
the whigs, how easy-federalism can change
principles or positions, or oppose itself even
where.it happened to.be right, for the saKe
of deception and party purposes.' . ; _ /
