BiOLin, in expressing hie view* on ail the political questions ofthe day, and the desperate effort of Got. JonHiTON to obnceaPentirely hit opinion*, or to cx. Ptes* them in such ambiguous language that they may be interpreted to suit any party ! It U; a sin gnlar fact, that while the latter ia known to be in feeling a rank Abolitionist, he is not only claimed by the Abollliohlsts and Free Sellers, but also by those oflhe Whig party in favor of the Compromise measures of the last Congress, as holding sentiments similar to their own! He protends in certaii\quar> ters, to be not really lioslilo to those great measures which cement tho Union, but merely in favor of certain modifications, and his Abolition friends hold that those ” modifications ” would be a virtual repeal of the bill, while those who, with a better conscience, would faithfully secure the guaranteed rights of tho South', allege that'his. -* 1 modifications ’* arc only in. tended to take off life without ma» king eny important changes in the Act itself! i But how peculiarly evasive and deceptive is his eourso <r iii regard to the repeal oflhe.GUi Section of (he Act of Assembly of PennsylviTriia of 1847, in regard to the ate of the jails of the Commonwealth. The repeal of this clause iacssenllal to tho carrying out, honestly and faithfully, the spirit of the Act or Congress, and the clause In the Constitution’ofthe U. States in guaranteeing to the South the delivery of their fugitives from labor;' Gov. Johnston secs fanatics in the North and Smith mad on these qaes. lions, and their actions practically leading to die* union. One parly, cries out for' their, guaranteed lights, and the other strives to have those right* via* laled on every occasion. * For the purpose of throwing a great obstacle Vo the 'way of tho reclamation of * fugitive slaves, and withdrawing all facilities from tho roaster that could be done by State, legislation, this act of 1847 was slyly, and without proper in* spcction, passed, and worked (he wrong its friends intended, to admiration. When the people discovered its operation, and that it was in violation of tho sphil of our solemn compact with the Southern States, and in violation of every principle of honor that binds ua as sn honest people,* and a magnanimous Com* monwealth, they caused their Legislature of last year to pass an act* repealing the 'section of the act of 1847, which worked this fraudulent and injurious result. This lasi was an act creditable to bur faith* showing s willingness to retract when we found that wo had unwittingly broken our vows, and to retrace our steps when we had fallen loto error. After it had passed both Houses, it was sent to Gov. John* ston for his approval, and Ae very cooly put it in hie pocket! The people wish to know, hi* views on this question. One party of fanatics, for a pretended philanthropy, arc anxious to see him violate all our pledges and promises to the South—another, party are equally anxious to have our honor maintained, arid such rights granted as are requlrodhy the spirit of oar compact. Govi Johnston is travelling over the < State for tho purpose of expressing his views, that the 1 people may know how he stands in regard to all the political questions that ; ore how agitated. This is his avowed object, to. give them an opportunity to vole underslandiogly. Yet, when called upon loci, press his opinion in regard to this unjust clause in the Acf of 1847, la Meadvifle, he said he had 11 put the hill in hie pocket—he hod it there now, and would keep it there until three day a after the meeting of the .Legislature.” The pi aip English of this is, that he does not wish to ht tho" people know whether he Is In favor of it or not. So Ib&l those wbo aro opposed to it may vole for him under tho belief that he Is appoted to it, and those In favor ofthe repeal may vote for him under the belief that he it in favor of U. N o other Interpretation can be given Xo hit con duct. Bat contrast with this the conduct or Colonel B/OLn, flO(f yoo find a caadfdala befors ib« people who openly avoirs his sentiments, and declares boldly in the hearing of every one who chooses to listen, that bo is in favor ofthe repeal of that clause in the Act of 1847, and honestly leaves the people to vote for or against him in accordance with their approval or disapproval of Ida sentiments. Such is the differ, ent course pursued by Col. Bigler and William F. Johnston. The Election on Tuesday. Democrats! wo will nolbatc another opportunity ofaddreaaihg you previous to .tho election. During the canvass, wo have discharged our duly to the best ofour ability, aud it now remains for our Democrat tie friends to discharge their duty.

These handbills wore to bo flooded over Perry county. The letters suggested that it would be so excellent scheme for Perry county, and to assert in (he bills (hat the Bank 41 was in (he habit of. buying up-rotten and depreciated paper and circulating it." The matter was taken into consideration by (he Whig regulators Iu town, who held a caucus on the subject, and sent out their spies to see if they could drum up any per aon desperate arid depraved enough to assert and stand up to such falsehoods. But (hey could find no rteff.etoble man willing to do it. Il ls understood,-however, (hat the bills were to be published in this borough on Friday, and circu lated immediately throughout Perry county. But fortunately for the ctmse of truth, there happened to be one man laying claim to a character for hon esty, and who had been consulted In regard to this diabolical conspiracy, whose conscience became top heavy to cany, and he exposed the whole mat , ter. On Saturday, the ‘‘regulators 1 ’ found that i the secret was out, and their " scheme for. Perry { i county" knocked on (lie head.

M — H*r*td, * •, , the Iferald'e uu are not only amusing bpt heartrending.' * 1 TUB UlftTY OB TUB OODIPROBIIBB* There appears to be.pne point In regard to tho compromise measures of the last Congress, so for as regards the surrender of ftigilives from labor, that seems not-at all to be andefrstbod, or, if understood, noi to receive Us full share of importance—that .Is,; ••the unity” of the compromise. Fullyto appreciate the importance of this point, it In necessary .to refer to the period of the organization ofour Government, and. (he adoption of our Constitution. A warm dif ference of opinion then existed between the North and tho South in regard to slavery. In the Conven tlon for Uie formation of the Constitution, the North ern delegates naturally took a stand against tho institution of slavery, as being politically injurious, and opposed to the common feelings of humanity.— These assertions were partly admitted by tlia mom bers from (he South; but,(hoy replied, with groat force, that the Institution had been, saddled on them —that it was so ‘ interwoven into their system of society that'll was impossible to get rid of it—that slave labor had. become necessary to tho peculiar productions of. the South—and that they wore poli tically their, recognized property, On these ques (ions, tho union of Uie thirteen Stales was in danger of never being consummated. At lost a compromise was effected, by the South entering into a covenant not to import, or allow- (he importation of slaves after - a ccrtoin pcfiod, in’consideralidn that the Northern Stales should hold tnoiofoU their right of property in slaves, add deliver them up whin they should escape into the territory of tho Northern Slates. In scaling tliis solemn contract, the 3d clause of the 3d section of tho Gth Article of the Constitution of tho United States was adopted. Under this clause, the right of property was as strongly recognized in slaves os it was in any other property that the master possessed, and, liy virtue ofii, ho could pursue his fugitive into any portion of (he Union, and lake him withouflcgnl process. In time, however, by. the efforts of aboli tionists, the life of the master became endangered, whenever he attempted to exercise this right in any Northern State. The master,or his agent, was beaten down by armed mobs; and his properly rescued from his-possession, .and tho olause in the Constitution beoaido adeo*d letter/ The cry of disunion. Wat then raised, on tho ground that (he. compact entered.into in (lie Constitution had been broken by the North, and that thus tho agreement which hud bound, the Slates together had.bcen virtually ; disßolved. A new compromise was then entered into, between the North ern ond.Southern Slates, boforeitko iatl Congress.— Among many great and conflicting Interests, this one was settled, by the South agreeing that their slaves, when arrested as fugitives,.should bo taken before a Commissioner of the United Slates, whore (he ques tion of their owing service should be tried, and a decision given in accordance with the . fuels. In consideration of this being done, the North again ooiimnly covenanted to interpose no obstacles in tho way of the master retaking his property to his own home, floncothe compromise became a,unil in .which the stipulations jyere all esntered and ni eg'ed, Thus, then, this act, which has settled the storm that was likely to rupture our bond of Union, stands in the nature of a centred,.ond is. to bo viewed as totally different in'its essence from tho ordinary acts of com- men legislation, although technically.similar. Yet in regard to. this act. Gov. Johnston declares IhavMie will never cease to agitate the question of Its repeat or modification ! He is not content to let the Union rest in peace,' but for hts own political aggrandizement and elevation, he must try to stir ,up another hurri. cane to disturb the harmony ond good-feeling which was again just beginning to bless our whole nation, under the benign influence of what is called '• the. compromise.” But how Is Its repeal or modification to be accomplished, without the assent .of both par ties—without the assent of the SbufA| as well as the North?' .'lf the North could command a majority, to repeal or modify those parts, which secure Southern rlghta/coQldrthoy' not fairly charge Dawillifraud, and a violation of oar promises—and would they nol have good reason to suppose that ihey cpuld no longer act in union with us, without surrendering their right of properly. entirely V-or submit to insults and violence on every occasion?

To Worh, Democrats, To WorUI The lime is short within which to work before (ho election. Never before was the Democracy ofCum. bcrland called more imperiously and earnestly than now, to moke every sacrifice of personal feeling,and come up united to tho support of every condldule upon the ticket. Obliterate private animosities, bury old bickerings, and come up like'men who battle for principles, who desire Io sco our flag once more hi complete triumph in old Cumberland.. Give not an inch to tho enemy. Let lire Democracy present a solid column, each , candidate receiving a decided majority. The day is ours if we desire to have it. Every, persuasion will bo used; misrepresentation resorted to, to induce Democrats to vole fur. one or more ofiho Whig ticket. '.Bland firm jbe not coaxed or deceived; repel' like men every such attempt lo •eduee'you from your integrity. Remember that it Is impdssible to save our Stale ticket, unless every Democrat is unyielding. If you would not defeat Col. Bigler,.resolve now, reso|vo firmly to support the whole ticket. It ia in (his wsy you euve yourselves (he annoyance of being bond by the Federalists.— Repel them promptly end decidedly, and they will nut come again with blandishments. Tho day is ours.
