Democratic Meeting at Mr. Warcham*s
Hole), on Saturday evening last, was very large, and
the beat feeling prevailed. Col. John Cornman was
called to the Chair, and John M. Gregg appointed
Secretary. The meeting, after being thus organized*
was addressed in on able manner by Wm. 11. Miller,
Esq. Mr. M. exposed the manner in which thc af
falis of this Slate had been managed when the Fed
eralists were in power, and pointed out some of the
abuses practiced; where tho public • improvements
were Under the control of a Federal Board of Cana)
Commissioners. He cautioned Democrats, as they
valued their principles and the welfare of the State,
not to trust too much to (heir own strength,.but to
be up and Rl-work, for the good cause, lie next re
ferred to the Democratic County Ticket, and con
gratulated the Democracy of this County on having
a ticket, so unexceptionable and worthy. His. re
marks were received with, great applause, and after
the meeting had . transacted some other business,'
adjourned, to meet again at Burkholder's hotel on
Saturday everting next. Keep up the fire. Demo

tyj' The article in the Pennsylvanian of Saturday,
over the caption of "Cheering," should have' been
credited to This paper. Wo don't know how it is, but
o*ar friends of the Pennsylvanian have boon in the
habit for some time of publishing articles taken from
tho Volunteer, and giving credit to other papers for
the same. This is provoking; and if wo thought for
& moment that it was done intentionally, we should
speak of tho.set as it deserves. We hope, however,
that il was done through mistake, and that wo will
have no occasion to refer to the mutter hereafter.

fury Encampment, which commenced at Newvillc,
on Monday of last week, and terminated on Thurs
day, passed off with considerable reJat, notwithstand
ing tho number of companies in attendance was not
so great as had keen anticipated. As a mark of re

were reviewed on Wednesday afternoon by that vet

sed himself well pleased with the soldier like bearing
and. fine appearance of the companies in attendance.
All the officers discharged their respective duties
with great credit, and the whole affair passed off
quietly and to tho credit of oil concerned.
beware of the hypocritical Fedor,

many more things to promote the election of their

that “ all is fair in politics.** Beware of these un

do any thing to accomplish their base purposes.

Under this caption the Harrisburg Telegraph asks

But tbey qte not: In favor.of ,ibe “reform" such as
the Federalists have been extending when they bad
control of the State improvements. Wo shall make
one comparison, to show . the difference in the re*
ccipts of the public works when controlled respec
tively by Federalists and Democrats., During the
year 1838, up to the 13lh of September, when the
public works were managed or rattier mis managed
by a Federal Board of Canal Commissioners, the
amount of tolls received on the Pennsylvania canals
and raihrooda wa55645,664 13. .During the year
1839, when the. Board of Canal Commissioners was
composed of Democrats, the sum received from the
same sources, up to tho same period as the year pro* |
vious, was 8780,319’61. Thus we see that In one year, I
tho Stale revenue was increased $134-j654'49.
. We may mention 100, that tho receipts derived, from
the (ttiblio works Have largely increased every year
sinro. Had we time and space we should like to
publish the receipts for each year, up to tho present
time. But wo have made.one comparison to show
the difference between Federal rule and Democratic
rule, and wo think' this will suflice to convince the
people that'll is not their interest to place (ho.public
works in Federal hands. The. people are in favor-of
economy in tho management of the public improve*
monls, but they are not in fuvor of such “ reform "
. as was practiced under the Rltnor. administration.
The Federalists had possession of tho public .works

money collected was wasted and squandered. “ /?«-

“THE DODGER.*’
The He>ald, In reply to our cburge that Mr. Rur
let (in opposition to the wishes of his constituents,)
had voted for a Dill Idst winter providing for the issue
of eleven hundred thousand dollars of shiplaslers, at.
tempts to oxcusAjMr. R, by intimating that bo did not
know the sentiments of his constituents on that sub*
jccl. “How did Mr.Rupley become aware of llio
fact that his constituents, of all parlies, were opposed
to any more paper money 1° asks the Herald. “Who
told him,” remarks the same paper, 11 that every bo*
dy was so flush ofmoncy that the thing had become
a drug 7” And again, the Herald asks—“ wo should
like to know where is tho evidence that the people of
Cumberland county want no more bank not#*?”
If our neighbor can advance no better, argument
in defence of Mr. Rupley’s course than the abovcj
we think he had bolter knock under, arid -give'it up
for a bad job. Such consummate nonsense—such
school boy.language, as is contained in the. article
headed “Mr, Rupley and Bank Notes,“published in
the Herald of last week, wo have not read for some
time. Simple as tho arguments used are, however,
there is an attempt to deceive the people—an at
tempt to keep out of view theory charge wo mode
against Mr. Rupley. The very beading of the arti
cle in the lferald t “ Mr. Rupley and Hank Notes," is
a fraud. We bad accused Mr. Rupley of voting for
another batch of siiinplastcrs—wo had sold nothing
about “ bank notes.” The intimation by the Herald
that a new issue of siiinplastcrs would have a tenden
cy.to make every one “flush’* of money, is evidence
inf one uf two things—the editor must either oonsid
er his readers great asses, or bo Is one himself. Such
logic is contemptible, and unworthy of any reply in
an Intelligent community.
The Herald would excuse Mr. Rupley—or Mr.
Dodger ,” as ho was called by his fellow members
last winter—by Intimating that he vroa ignorant of
tho wishes of his constituents. “ Where is the evi
dence that tho people of Cumberland county want no
more bank notes,” asks our neighbor. Where is the
evidence 7 Why t)m evidence is in the fact that they
never petitioned for a now issue of shinplasters— or
1 “ bank notes,” os our neighbor Ss plan sod to call them.
Mr. Rupley voted for a bill providing fur an issue of
’ eleven hundred thousand dollars of thosu notes; Now
wo may ask, where was the evidence , that Mr. Rup
let’s constituents desired this enormous issue of
shinplaslers? Mr. Uuplbt must have known—if ho
knows any thing—that the people were, and are still,
opposed to this currency. Last full, when Johnston,
the Fedora) candidate for Governor, was occasionally,
accused of being in favor of shhiplaslers, the charge
was indignantly denied by tho whole Federal press,
the Herald not excepted, Mr. Ruplbt’s constituents,
nor any port of them, had asked him to vole for a
new issue of small notes—on the contrary ho hod FORGOT Ills ERRAND*

*<A DANIEL COME TO JVDOIUtERT.’’
Thero iB no doubt that whoever reads ihe'Shippons
burg Weekly Newt,' must come to the conclusion
Uiat-iU editor jsla inan of great abiiily.'apd learning
| —eery great! \ For acuteness, sarcasmi'and proton
dlly,tlio world probably never.saw hls-equal. The
withering influence of his pen is greater than Swill's
—and, when it comes to wisdom, and solidity of
judgement, to go far back—lotbo doys of
Solomon and Daniel, for a comparison !;' .
In our paper two vpecks since, we objected to tho
new School law, that it gave no right of appeal, ”not
even a hearing before a Justice of Ue Peace, a rigl
admitted in every other case of indebtedness.” This
remark called forth a gush of scathing irony from the
soul of this great editor, and his sheers have so pros*
(rated Us, that wo dan hardly lift our pen to invoke
his mercy. ‘‘O wise, young judge,” he exclaims,
“U is evident that the common 1 School system was
not in operation when (he editor ofthe Volunteer re*
ccived his education.'.* : This awful but splendid (or*
rent, was followed, by proof .''clear as holy writ,” that
such a'lhing as a t hearing before a Justice of the
Peace, on All «indebtedness ” for taxes was never
heard of, and a wicked attempt to .sneer at our. use
of tho torn) “ indebtedness.”
But there is a slight mistake. If the editor had
used ordinary and hot extraoi dinary penetration, he
would have discovered that the first part.of the
expression, in regard to a hearing before a Justice
of the Peace, was used merely at an illustration—
that there should be a right of appeal somewhere
—and not aeon,allegation thalsuch a thing actually
had over been done beforo a Justice of tho Peace, or
even that it would be a proper tribunal lor the- ap
peal. It was to illustrate the fact, that- under the
new School law, the people have not a hearing in
regard to their taxes, even before' the ordinary, and I
> regularlribunaU, wliore, asa general rule,every thing
is hcord, much less the privilege of a hearing before
fa special tribunal' appointed for the 'purpose—inJ
I other words, that' they are left absolutely without j
remedy. Docs the Airies understand us now?
In regard to our use of the term; “indebtedness"
for taxes, it is strictly and literally correct. Alt po*
litrcal writers on our Institutions that we havoeVcr
read, inform us that our taxes are the price tot pay
for t|ib preservation of our rights 5 in other words,
the consideration we give to the government for the
security which it affords to bur property and persou
at liberties. If this bo so, then taxes become an “in*
debledness.” Don't you think so, Mr. News?
But, the acuteness and learning of the editor is
particularly displayed, in his attempt to uphold the
section of tho Act in regard to taxes, and. to prove
that the people have a right to bo heard “ before the
School Directors, or the County Commissioners, as
the case may ,bc.'' Now it conics our turn to cry
“O, wise young Judge 1 A Daniel! yea, a second
Daniel como to judgement!” If the editor will (urn
to the Pamphlet Laws, page 44G, sections 22 and 23,
lib Will find, if ha pulls the scum off his eyes, and
gives it a careful reading, that (ho School Directors
must levy the lax 11 on the last adjusted valuation,"
without the power of altering or emending one figure
or fuel, unless it bo a mistake in (heir own oalcula*
lion. There Is therefore no hearing before the School
Directors, for there is no ability in them to do an}*
thing but niako a correct calculation,; Neither is
there any appeal to, or power of altering and corrod
ing in the Commissioners, as the editor virtually al
leges—for d hearing amounts to nothing unless they
can give relief." The only part of the Act in which
the Commissioners are spoken of, is in. the jwoofso
of the 23d reads thus—** That ifuny
error in the certificate of taxablcs shall occur, where,
by a district ehaU receive more or jets of-thi Slate ap
propriation than is justly due said dlsprct, thefcoun
ty Commissioners shall have authority*,and they ore
hereby required, immediately toforwardtothe Super
intendent a correctcdlist oftuxables, arid the'Supcrin
tqndcnt shall thereupon make it the basis of the op.
porlionment duo said district.** This is the w4ule
authority of Iho Coinmissioncrs.nnd we would thank
this 11 second Daniel Vof Shippcnsburg to point out
I the particular passage which gives “ a hearing to the
i people.**
We then repeat that tho iovorclicsufthiß law are un
justifiable. Jtgivcs no hearing for either a correction
in valuation, or an inequality in taxation. Tho tax is
levied absolutely, without appeal; and, if by cither
misfortune or accident, it is not paid by a certain
per cent, and the cost of a Constable's war
rant and sale, are added to the amount. We wish to
know how this operates beneficially on tho pour, who
frequently cannot command money for long periods
of time 7 Under the old luw they could bo indulged
until able to raise tho amount; but this law allows
after a.certain day, no indulgence. The money must
bo paid whether the man has it or .not, andiif not
paid, a load of costs arc heaped upon him, however
trifling tho amount due. And those are some of llio
provisions that Mr. Ruplcy tacitly voted for, by dodg
ing. lie refused to interpose his volo to prevent these
severities, whcndio could have dona so, and thus vir
tually assented to their passage, Ths Herald of this
place tries to excuse Mr, Ruploy’s dodging—but wc
bollcvo the, people will not. They want Members
who can act, and not .dodge. Wo send men to rep
resent us, end vuto for us, and not to dodge when an
important bill is before the House. Wo send them
tostrive for good, and to Interpose against oril. Mr-
Ruploy is therefore responsible to his constituents
for not interposing when severe olid uncalled for re
strictions arc placed upon them.
Wo are not opposed to tho Common School system,
as tho Newt alleges, So far from it wp arc warmly
in Us favor i but wo wish to see judicious mtd nut
tyrannical laws passed (or its regulation. Wc hope
to see the system flourishing—flourishing for tho ben
efit of all, and particularly fur the benefit of tho
Shippcnsburg editor, and for his children and his
children’s children to tho last generation, Then wo
shall behold many Daniels arising out of tho Bom
bergor family—an honorable and illustrious race from
the present editor. -.

the french minister dismissed*
The. country has been thrown into a great stale
of excitement, by the unexpected intelligence from
Washington, of serious difficulties between the
French .Minister and bur Government, which have
resulted in the summary dismissal of thelatter.
‘ We subjoin a statement of the particulars of this
rupture,.as given by the Washington correspon
dent of the North American, who professes to be
in the confidence of the Cabinet:
! . . Wasuinoton, Sept. 18,184 D.
A/tera protracted and imporlantoorrespondehce;
between the French Minister and the Department
of State, letters of dismissal end passpbrts were
communicated to M. Poussin on Friday last the
14lh. , : ; • : -- .
The whole subject of dispute : has been before
the French Government, aha its course has been
such as to justify the prompt and decided, action
of the Administration.;
It depends upon France to determine whether
.war shallgrow put of this difficulty or not. Cer
tainly ihe Uniled States will not retract or recon
sider its position.
As long ago as'in February, M. "Poussin, (he
French Minister,presented to Mr.‘Buchanan,then
Secretary of State, a claim in behalf a M. Porte,
a Frenchman, residing in Mexico. Porte had pur
chased Tobacco, sold byithe agents of, the Amer
ican army, knowing it to be private property, and.
not subject to (he rules of war. The tobacco was
restored to its proper owner by’Col. Childs, the
commanding officer, and the.purchase money re
funded to Porte. Under these circumstances, a
claim was set up by the French Minister for dam
ages, being- (he difference between'the price at
.which Porte had purchased and sold; A court of
inquiry was held, and decided unanimously against
the claim, and the decision was approved by Gen.
Scott.
Mr. Buchanan went out of office Without exam-
1 1 fngr the case ; and then it come before'the. present
J administration, The finding was reaffirmed by Mr.
IClayton, and in answer to a note of M. Poussin,
I f lte Secretary of . Slate sustained the verdict of the
Court and his own approval.-
• ; M. Poussin rejoined, charging Col* Childs vir
tually with pnjury/ahd usuing other insulting
language. He was invited to Washington, being
then absent, and the alternative of withdrawing or
adopting his offensive note, was offered. He wilh r
drew it,.expurgated the offensive terms, and then
ronovred the communication, which was accepted.
Here, it was supposed, all difficulty would end.—
Subsequently, however,.Poussin,presented anoth
er note, claiming the punishment of Commander
Carpenter, under the following circumstances:
Commander Carpenter, while forming a part of
the blockading squadron on the coast of Mexico,
was called upon by the captain of the French ship
Eugenie, to rescue her from-shipwreck. He,
with his crew, succeeded after much labor, and
afterwards requsted the legal salvage. This was
refused, whereupon Com. Carpenter restoTHTi the
vessel to her captain : she having laid along side
the Iris for thirty hours.. Mr. Clifford, the Minis
ter at Mexico, approved, of Carpenter’s conduct.
When this subject was submitted to Mr. Clayton,
It was referred to Mr. Preston, who furnished Car
penter’s statement of the facts. M,. Poussin, in
stead of referring the correspondence to his Gov
ernment, jwrote an iusnlting letter, in which he re-i
Heeled grossly upon the character and honor of the
American marine,
. The President then directed the whole corres
pondence to be laid before the French Govern
ment, expecting immediate and voluntary redress.
Instead of atonement, the French Ministerof For
eign Affairs attempted to inculpate our. Govern
ment, and to divide the As soon
as this information was received,' liio President
ordered no further correspondence to be held with
M. Poussin, and his passports to be placed at his
disposal. - . < ‘
The. Washlngton'Republio of Thursday con
tains an official statement of the~wholo affair out
of which the present difficulty with the French
Minister has sprung. The above letter is a fair
abstract of it, and appears (o cover all the materi
al facts in the case. The Republic, however, does
not regard the misunderstanding as likely to lead
to serious consequences, as will be seen by the
concluding paragraphs of ihestatementit publish
es, as follows: . .
“Suffice it to say,Tor the pretent, that, unless
France is emulous of a. difficulty with this country
—of which we have no evidence in any thing that
has transpired—ho disturbance of the
friendly relations between this and that country
can possibly occur.
. In pulling an end to the official relations of Mr.
Poussin with the United Slates,The Executive has
informed both tho government of France, and the
late Minister of Prance, that any communication
through any other channel, will be respectfully re
ceived and considered.”
American Railroad Iron*
Wc learn from the Harrisburg Union, that the Har
ritburgand Lancaster are now ha
ving delivered along tho linHr(heir now road, some
two thousand .tons of Danvillo T railroad iron, for
which we learn they pay $5O per Ton ot Danville.—
This company purchased lately one thousand tons of
English iron, at about $45 per ton, but upon compa
rison with the.Danvillo iron which they had former
ly used, they determined that in the end the Ameri
can iron at $5O per ton was decidedly the cheapest
article to (he company. A great portion of the Eng
lish iron now brought into (his market is as brittle
as cast iron, whilst the American railroad iron is so
