" Two dollars per day, and good test beef" was promised the laborer before the election of Gen. Harrison. But did the Federalists fulfil their promise to the laborer 7 Oh, no. After [the election these silk-gloved Federalists could not teven condescend to speak to the men they had cheat. Rsd the election was over. Federalism (through a system of fraud and villainy} was triumphant, and I they had got all of the laborer they wished. They bad cheated him out of his vote; and after that they cheated him out of his “two dollars a day and roast beef.” The groat mass of the people, however, are fully awake lo the intrigues of bur reckless political opponents. The laborer can not again bo deceived by their treachery, and now look upon the present attempt to create a “ panic" with derision end con tempt, and upon the Federal Iron-masters who have made this call for a convention, as men eminently befitting the opprobrious title of political kieses.

There is not a semblance of troth in any one of them, and wo are Indeed aatonlahed that.any man—ereri the molt ab'indohad villain Upon earth—could be guilty, of publishing such sweltering lies.

What is meant by the insinuation that wo were kicked out of an establishment for oar dishonorable, acta? We were for one year*one of the four proprietor* of the Democratic Union* At the end of the year, we all agreed that the establish ment coaid not support four families. Mr. Patterson and ourself proposed to'either buy out M’Klnley and Lcscure, or sell out to them, estimating the establish-: ment at $lO,OOO. M’Kinlcy & Lescure considered 1 our proposition, and finally agreed to purchase our| •hare and Mr. Patloraon’s. We .dissolved partner: j | ship good friends, as we always had been while to-i gether. Mr. M’Kinley is atilt our friend, as we are j his, and wp know that ho would sUmp it as a lie that wo ever acted “dishonorable,** whilst wo were his partner.

We would certainly bo an ungrateful wretch if we could bo guilty of such ingratitude, but not quite asm/graloful as is the scoundrel who would stterojit to blacken the character of one 'who clothed him when he was naked and gave him b«ad and meat when he was starving. WHal U.meanl by the insinuation that we wrote to a gentleman oakipg for a loan of a thousand dollars 7 Wo pronounce this a | falsehood, and the writer a liar and a BCOundjcU— What is meant by the insinuation that we “spend whole night* at the gaming table?*’ Were it tbo, last words f* should write this aide of etornUyi wo declare ifciptwe scarcely know one card from another, 1 acd never played a game of any kind for mnney In our life. But, why should we address Ibeee questions to an abandoned villain, and one -destitute of every thing like honor? The charge that we defrauded an insurance company, by a false oath, and by scatter ing old typo on the floor of our office, for the purpose of deceiving the company, is as bate a lie aa ever was uttered. After the fire, all Iho type in our office, with the exception of three oases, was either broken or in pie . Mr. Thompson, (our foreman,) at our re- 1 quest, made a close examination of our loss, and he estimated il, we think, at $350, and to this he made oath. He bad a better knowledge of tho office, than [we bad. No honorable roan living would accuse, | Joseph C. Thompson df sweating false, in Viy mat- I ler whatever.. Wo can only say that we received from,(he Insurance company just about one half what we should.have received. Our loss by the fire was at least $4OO. We therefore conclude this article— which is a mere selfdefehco—in Justice to ourself. If Jerome K. Boyer was as well known to our res ders as he is to the citizens of Harrisburg, we would have been saved the trouble of writing this defence. On the afreets of that town wehavO heard him slan der hit own parent in language almost similar to that applied to u* in his last paper. Bui there he ia known, and his slanders.fall, to tho ground.— And, if we mistake not very much, his true charae ter will soon be known to.(be citizens of this placet and they will then discover that they have in (heir midst a man who combines all the qualities of a mid. night,assassin, and accomplished swindler. (£j- Among other falsehoods in the Uli I we are charged with having aboaed the man who gave hi* judgment note as security Tor us. - If even j this was true, (which we deny, for no man living, to I our reeolleetioD, ever gave a judgment note for us,) the difference between Boyer and ourself is this—We at least did not cheat the man out of the amount of the note. But when we endorsed a note (133,50) for a suit of clothes for Boyer, that he might appear docent when he hist came to Carlisle, he not only afterwards abased us, but he mode ue pay the note, and we I never received one cent of an equivalent.' Nor was this the only note of his which we had endorsed and bad to pay. Thia we are prepared to prove. (0-The editor of the Democrat says we spend whole nights at the gaming table. Now, as there is a law for the punishment of gamblers—which makes it a penitentiary offence, besides a heavy fine—we ask our accuser to bring proceedings against us Ar a violation of that law.

Before the final adjournment of, Ike Contention, Mr. Penniman, one of the ‘delegatee from Philadel phia oountj, read the following letter from Mr. Dan ui, which -waa unanlinduaij ordered to bo placed upon the minutea: My Dxak Six The 4ih of March ia cloee upon ui. 1 have, heretofore, taken no part in the prepa ration! made for the Convention to be held on that day at Harrisburg. ' It hae, however, been impossi ble for me to avoid perceiving that much excitement prevailed; and 1 have supposed that, under existing circumstances, it would net be deemed intrusive, If 1 1 ventured to address to you a few frank words on the, i subject. , ' , The arrangements for’parly combination,can onlv Ibe justified by the patriotic public objects at which! I they aim. They should be sternly kept subservient i Ito those objects. We design the good of our coun try i n our efforts (o secure for it a government ad-1 ministered upon Democratic principles. It is this design which enoblea every exertion; and we cannot I lose sight of it, without incurring more or less oil danger and dishonor; because Democracy is patriot ism t—the Convention is created to unite, invigorate, and forward Democracy* Now, it will not do, on light reasons, to permit this great purpose to be defeated. It Is true, Pennsylva nia Is but one of thirty States, and the Harrisburg Convention can do no more than provide for our sui table representation at the Baltimore Convention.— But we know that the force of the Democracy of Pennsylvania, on thai occasion at least, is Indispeifr •able to the Democracy of thrUnion.- That a national overthrow is inevitable, if the Stale be disorganized, and (hat we virtually surrender what we esteem to bo the cause of the people and the coun try, to Us adversaries, when we fall to keep in full 1 vigor and efficiency, our -local ranks. We must stand guard upon ourselves to prevent the whole from being Tost. The fall of the Keystone could never be more ruinous to the arch. It is not my wish—neither Is It in my power—to influence, in the slightest degree, the actual condi tion of political preferences in our Commonwealth. My name yras brought before the people of the Uni. on, In a manner,that places U entirely beyond my control; and it must accept, without (ho smallest in terposilion from me, one way or the other, whatever fate Ibis wide-spread tribunal shall assign to it But those of my fellow citizens In Pennsylvania, who, like yourselves, honor it with countenance, will, 1 trust, look indulgently upon expressing the sentiment, tbit nothing—at least nothing that can reasonably be anticipated, should for a moment, be entertained, •s a justifying cause for any action by a part of the Convention, which might weaken, in, the estimation of the general Democracy, the weight of its proceed ings and recommendations. It is easy to find fl&ws j in the regularity of party action; andevery days ex-, peritmee proves how difficult, If not impracticable, a I thing H'l* to conform strictly to precedents and,use-. ges m matters uf this kind. * 1 Certainly, it is most wise, most just, and most safe,, at limes of animated competition, to follow, without 1 deviation, a recognized beaten track; but.if.thl# be, ribl done—were there even obi lons and ungenerous 1 departures from modes ’proceeding heretofore deemed •afa-ghards to pure and equal representation—(dcpar i lure* which it la almost ungenerous to Imagine)— Mill, I am unwilling that redress should bo sought In separation and conflict. Such a remedy, however ■legitimate and promising it may seem, Is Worse than life disease. A majority may do wrong, but it does ! not follow that the minority would therefore bo right In exuoiiog to imminent peril, forthejr o#n Immedi ate vindication, the dause pf the country. * Let that cause never Wforgotten; lei Us vstlkitporlinodover* Washington, March 19.
