This is an old trick of this individual, for it tylll bo remembered that in 1839, when Rilder was defeated for Governor, ho sought to treat & solemn election as If it never had boon held. Wo guess the Democrat io'party have nothing to fear from the fullest iavusti gallon.

The majority In favor of the proposed amend ment to the Constitution, making Judges elective by the people, is over 79,000. It has therefore been adopted, and the principle is now engrafted on our State Constitution., The Norristown Reg titer, in speaking of (his “ Democratic measure,” feel assured that the measure will work well. It has been tried in other Slates with the best success, and we do not doubt that its appli cation in Pennsylvania will he such as to satisfy evert those who were hostile to it, that the projec ted change will be attended with none of the evils apprehended by its opponents, whilst alt the ben efits will be gaiped that Its advocates.anticipated froth its adoption. Tint Senate.— The Slate Senate will be Whig by one majority, as wo allied in our last. It is provoking to think that we have lost the Senate by 84 votes—the majority of Myers over Dium. But so It is.

In speaking,.last week, of the auspicious result I of iho contest from which wchave just emerged, [ says, the Norristown JTegister,.wo took occdsiort to urge upon>our' Democratic brethren the propriety that organization which has liccom* {dished.so much.goodj so that,‘. next year, when,a Governor is to bb elected, we may bB‘ able to rc. joice,.as wb now da, in the fulness of a perfect vie iqry. It needs no seer la predict who thei chosen candi dale-of the democratic, party will be. Public senti ment in ail parts of the commonwealth, has develop ed itself so clearly in favor of Col. Wra. Bigler* of Cluarheld county, that Ills nomination mb/be alrea dy regarded as a settled matter. And a glorious, standard bearer will ho prove himself to the demo, malic party ! Around him all,tiuo. democrats will rally with, zeal, and onihnsinsm, and Johns(or\, flip present'Governor, will find, if ho ventures to lake the field agoinsl him, (hat''he has mot an oppo nent whoso force • of character and deserved popii . lurity will.carry , him triumphantly through tbo con- But we arc greatly mistaken If Wm. F. Johnston docs not carefully ovoid being a candidate against Win. Bigler., Ho tried the experiment once of com peting with him for d Scat in the Senate, and gut soundly beaten fur his paiiis. A similar fata would attend a trial for the gubernatorial chair; and of this wo are confident Johnston is so well assured, that no entreaties on the part of his whig brethren can in duce him,la enter the lists. Wo venture to make the prediction, now, and ask' our. readers of all par* lies to remember it, that, should Col. Bigler bo—and wo doubt not he will be—the candidate of Ilia dem ocratic party for tlibolfico of Governor, Wm. F. John ston will decline taking tho hazard of & contest against him. • •Whether, however, Johnston is or It .not tho man; our opponents must and will have s candidate, and that candidate, whoever, he may be, it bound to bo beaten. Pennsylvania has already suffered too long from haying a whig executive. It will be the duly, and wo may. add the pleasure, of tho democratic par ly, to redeem our good old Commonwealth from such a slain, and restore her to her legitimate position among the States of the Union. This can-bo ea sily accomplished with harmony and Union in our ranks, and with a candidate presented for our sup port as talented, patriotic, and worthy in every re spect as Col. WILLIAM BIGLER, of Clearfield county. More Wma PrinciplgsDecoiiinq “ Obsolete."— Nearly all the measures for the success of which the Whigs for.so long a time battled with the Democrats, are last becoming “obsolete ideas.’* The idea of a Dank of the United Stales scarcely finds even a member of tho Whig parly ” so poor as to do it rc veroncc,’! and tho principles ofa protective tariff aro fast following in the samb wake. What greater tri bute could be'paid to the Democracy by Whiggcry, than (ho following; acknowledgement from the New York Mirror, a violent Whig paper?—“ If a direct vole could bo taken on the question to day, indepen dent of (ho eloction arguments usually made use of by tho, Manufacturers, wo'do not believe more than “one fifth.of (ho American People ” would bo found in favor of the narrow doctrine of “ Protection.”— Wo deny that this is any longer adlsiintinclivo prin cipje'of the Whig party. , The time teas'when a iiiglt tariff and a national, bank were fundamental ’pillars"of the Conservative creed.

In this sge of steam and lightning, every tiling is changing and progressing, and what was of vital importance !n the.machinery of yesterday, is but a dead weight and sn iocumbrar.ee upon (ho wheels of to-day. Po litical organization, like all things else, must got rid of these “ obsolete ideas ” as fust as possible, nr like a dead limb to a living body they will spread decay throughout tho entire system.” 146,107 133,658 12,449 143,738 131,959 9,986 Vermont U.

Mr. Foote was one of the persons defeated last winter, for the Cleik* ship of the House of Representatives. He is a Free Sailer, Mr. Phelps Is a Whig. Richard P.

He.looked remarkably wetland reported himself as one of the happiest of .old. fashioned married men, in the possession of a fond wife and three children, all snugly pro* vided for in the fertile valley of Texas. He maintains hie entire innocence of the awful crime for which lie was tried and acquitted. .Public judgment bus been strong against him, but we should all hope- that the verdict of not guilty, which was rendered in his case, was a righteous one.

' " • ’ ' ' **._ • The, Wlilfts anti the Tariff* The Whig papers.in this County and through the Stale arc making a. most sirenuouseffort to induce tho people to believe that the Democrats in Congress are responsible for the failure to adjust the Tariff.— In reply to a charge of this kind made in the Wash ington Republic, the Pennsylvanian thus disposes of the question and shows conclusively upon whom the defeat or delay of the measure undoubtedly .Vests.— After showing that.the Whigs and Free Soilers com-■ bined hud a majority in the House, and that tho Democrats, for ull practical purposes, were in a mi nority in that body, the Pennsylvanian says.: ' “Bui si* months rolled over'beforea movement was hiudo to ullcr tho tarifl' by lhose tatty‘/rienrfs who professed nullo fear.yiujorilics adverse to them ; and (his oamo'in bo questionable d Sltape, as to show llml.it hud. been delayed forthe worst party purposes. Those who ought to have passed It—those who wore, par excellence, the lariffleuders —those pledged to rolbnn und roihoddl the law of'lB4fi— did.ubsolnloly nothing.' Mr. BAVLEV,.to whom reference is made by tho Republic, drove tho nail into .tho counterfeit complaint of the Pennsylvania' Whigs who com. plained, at (he very.hecl of tho session, that tho Dom oCrulicComimtloo of Ways and Mouhshad prevented action upon the larilF. ;Ho loro tho thin disguise from this, miserable falsehood.' He showed that those who were responsible lor protracting the slave ques lion—your STEVENSES—your Mojres— your Ca seys—yom Howes— and your Hamptons —were re. sponsible for keeping buck,'for nine, months, any action upon the Tariff. Had these demagogues, and their colleagues, responded tho wishes of tho pon (ile on the.one question, they might have obtained and conciliated favorable action'upon the other.— But-they not only tried to destroy the constitution so far us (ho slave question was concerned, but'inn nopojized all tho tilno of Congress, so that no other subject could bo readied. ■- At the eleventh hour they became eager for o modification of the tariff. But the game was too bold and‘palpable; They saw (he election coming on in Pennsylvania, ‘ They saw that tho masses were indignant at thejr treasonable, or cowardly course on the s ave question; and for tho double purpose of pumping upohcxcUemenl in the iron und coal districts, and to .divert tho popular wrath from their opposition to thd great measures of peace und patriotism, they became suddenly conscious of tho ruin und devastation resulting from the act of 1846. Congress, disgusted with their hypocrisy and folly, turned from them with contempt, and every whore they arc pointed at as unworthy of confidence. • No intelligent who examines this pie* lure, can deny (hat it is a faithful version of the reality. 1 ’ ■ ' “Acknowledges the Con.N.’V-The New’York Courier underst&ndsibearing ofejinder the ills of life.
