Never 1 They fight for principles, that are living and eternal, '' .For what then do tlie Democracy contend ? The question may be answered by asking another —for what/mec they contended? From of the Declaration of Independence, when Thomas Jefferson penned that immortal line—“that all men arc created equal, that they are endowed ljy their Creator with- certain unalienable rights”—they havc' contended for those rights unadulterated and unabridged. They have, admitting that one man may be superior to another by his superior intelli gence, integrity, and energy of character, conten ded for political equality —for equal rights, and equal privileges. They have resisted the aggres sions of die lew against the many—they have contended that government should liold out equal PROTECTION TO ALL—GRANT PRIVILEGES TO NONE. They-have in a word, struggled for “the greatest . good to the greatest number.” Bui to be more explicit—for what particular measures, or policy of government,, do they now contend,' as the means of carrying dutllieir princi* pics? They advocate the ‘‘lndependent Treasu *ry,” as the best and* only constitutional mode of collecting, keeping, and disbursing the. public, monies,’' They profess uncompromising hostility to a National Bank in'every shape and form, as an institution and opposed to the spirit otour-governmenti-i.aB-a great-overshadow ing central money power, and, dangerous to the liberties of iho people. They profess an -anxious solicitude,for a healthful reform of the currency, by proper restraihttho banking in : stitutions of the country. They oppose the further increase of . the,banking, capital. They oppose monopolies in every form. They oppose a high protective tariff, : as - an unrighteous tax upon the planting and agricultural energies of the country •i—as ultimately defeating itself,, by every protec tion increasing the demand for'protection. They are in favor of free trade with allthe world- oppose the assumption of .tho debts of by the General Government, as unconstitutional’ and consolidating in its nature; They oppose also -the distribuftoh'ofihe-prbceeds-ofthe public lands* aihorig the States, as corrupting- in its tendency; and as ; encouraging tho States to : renew, systems of wild and profiigate'ezpenditufes.

For these they conland.fThey jgo for the consti tution .being-strictly construed*, and for the gov emraoqtbcjngßimply and plainly administered in accordance with the intentionsof its original foun ders. -It wasthowarning voico of Patrick Henry that proclaimed, that if this government ever fell, it would be by its own weight—it would bo by the desire of ambitious'rulerp to ipako a splendid government, emulating tlic dazzling doepotisms.of Europe, instead of.lieing satisfied with the Origi nally simple model'-of republicanism. ■ . ■ bf^i^uhie.^fdwiog, ’l wo tyro wceka .ago .advoited to.the-fapt that the.diffefent factions composing the Harrisonparty were jeal ously inclined, and-HhaC the respective leaders were already. reasonof eachVoifier’a ‘ supposed die President elect, We statcd thatlbe ‘*gTeen byj& mb)seter* ; • signal fortr,war ofextorminatlon among the clans of federal whiggery.—But we did not suppose at : the time, that our forebodings were so soon to be ■ realized—that We would thus early have to record the fact that hostilities have commenced;! But so it is. Scarcely a moon has'.passed since the re sult of tho Presidential election, is Icitown, and yet we find that a deadly feud; aireadyoxlatsbetweon ' two of the most prominent of.the Buckshot leaders, Stevens and, Penrose! . That these two worthies—; who had stood shoulder to shoulder in the Catali nlan conspiracy of ’3B, .and whose char acter, interests, and every thing 'else, appeared then to be so'indissolubly joined together that: nothing could possibly separate them—should how! be found warring against each'other with all the bitter animosity am) deadly hate which character-; ized the ancient clan-ish chiefs in their petty wars, ,is what could scaVcely have..been foreseen by any one prior to .the late election. 'Biit.the friendship of these men had .nothing of that ennobling and 'sanctifying nature in its composition, which is'ap parent; where principle Js at the bottom ;—on the contrary, they' were actuated by selfish aiid con tracted motives, each endeavoring to make the other a stepping stone to climb into-power. The moment, therefore, the tempting object began to loom up in the.distance, and the prospect of a cabi net perchance ai gubernatorial nom ination,oifered a speedy realization of their hopes, so far as one of them was concerned, (for only We could be.gralificd,) envy took possession of their breasts, and they Set at worrying each'Other about, who should obtainithe prize. - 1 We are led to make these remarks from the cross; firing, which has recently taken place be tween (he ‘/Carlisle Herald," owned by Mr. Pen rose, and the “Gettysburg Star,” the property and mouth-piece of Mr. Slovens. ■ Tho Herald ootn mcncod the war by letting off a small battery at Stevens, in which his claimsto the Post' Office ' Department aro apokuii of very disparagingly, pnd alleging that to appoint hitmwould be a most un popular and suicidal, act. In return for this W tuoriz'ed attack upon Mr. S.j the Star .sends a broadside ihto the Herald ih which the Prime of Jpoatatea is handled without gloves. - *!• ' ' To show our readers a specimen of (his warfare, wo copy the article from the Star to which we allude, barely premising that the feud between the two chieftains is not confined to the newspaper .controversy, hut is already visible in the deport-, mept of the rank ofjbg two .factions tp. fdr the /‘Star” caronadn, which wo doubt hot is from the'pen of Mr. Stovdns himpclf: ! PUBLIC' OPINION. The, want as-well as the shallowest mode of manufacturing' ‘‘public opinion” is,to procure par agraphs to be inserted in dis la ntjournais t an dth eh transferred to the collecting focus/ But this small i trade is so Well understood that it affects nobody. We are led to these remarks by observing the course of the ‘‘Carlisle Herald & Expositor’* in reference to one of his follow townsmen.. _.\Vc ob ject to^ nothing laudatory. which or can say i of the gentleinan~refe"rred‘to; but it is somewhat amusiifg to‘see it collect'the ‘‘opinions” of, the Harrison party of Pennsylvania from the papers of i.such counlieaas Columbia, *arid“ Perry,'which | gave about 2500 Van Burch- majority. - But what j we particularly except to in.tlie.Herald ' of especial condemnation, is the editorial remarks f pf the la&t number, under the. head of “New Cab* I met” Wd do not object to the eulogy on Mr. Penrose, although considering the location .and ownership of that paper, we should think it be trayed much lack of modesty and delicacy. But why attempt to depress the gentloman-whorn the Editor seems to consular his rival? Is this the j way to promote the harmony and ensure the future 'success of the party? The Editor should hove the prudence to remember, , before he makes , such in- I vidious assaults against those who'have sacrificed their time and estates for the last fifteen ontweniy years to stein the torrent of Locofocoism, that He \ has but lately taken refuge from the indignation of his fellow agrarians in the ranks, and under the protecting shield of the very parly and the very men whom hS now assails. But it is hardly ‘to bo wondered„at. They,-, were so much the sub jects of his assaults a few-years since when he shot his poisoned arrows from the * ranks of the enemy, that he.cannot refrain from using a weapon from the same quiver evert when he professes to be their friends. Of" the.propriety of appointing to the Cabinet the person, who is tnus gratuitously introduced by the Herald for the purpose ofenvU qus remark, we do not intend to speak. If he’bo hot already known to the nation and iho.Presidcinf elect, nq poor editorial puffing will give him any honorable notoriety. Nor shall we say'aught against ( tho Herald'S, favorite; we know and re? Spect Him in bis *plxo«. -But we have not the moat distant belief that any considerable' portion of the Hirrison party In Pennsylvania .would de sire to see him tendered the first honor which Pennsylvania is to receive.—We- have no, appre-- hension that he will be placed in the very front, and the old warriors be commanded to wheel into the fear. But enough of this. We trust we shall see no more attempts among professing friends to depreciate- the merits of our prominent men, of invidious comparisons between. •It requires no magician to foretel- that such a course would end in the speedy downfall of the party. =: The news .from. Washington possesses bat little interest .as so much'ab that we thinlc it im necessary to burthen our columns with much of it.
