the North and the South In reference to slavery,

to accept this challenge. Too the mark, or

effective speech. Never have wo heard

sec what claims it has to .the support of Whigs

Lemuel Todd is the candidate for Congress,
and, notwithstanding his attempt tq carry wa
ter on both shoulders,.lt is well known ho is
doing everything in his power to advance the
interests of Fremont. lie has flooded this dis
trict with Iho Abolition documents that have
been issued from Greeley's Tribune office in
New York, Under the supervision of the Fre
mont Executive Committee. The friends of
Fillmore in Philadelphia, sent a largo number
of documents to this county, advocating his
claims, but they were either destroyed or sup
pressed, and not one of them was distributed.
Wc have this information from the Philadelphia
News, the Fillmore organ in that city. Mr.
Todd is an out-nnd-oat Fremont man, and
we dare him to deny it.
Next on the ticket is Kirk llaiks for the
Senate. Mr. Haiss was one of the first Fub
moxt men in Perry county, and, as wo learn,
has the manliness to announce himself as such
when Interrogated on the subject.
Then wc have Nbvin and Bryson' for As
scmbly, both Abolitionists and both in favor of
Fremont. The sentiments of these gentlemen
arc well known, and neither will venture to
deny what wc assert.
For Associate Judges wo find two more
staunch Fremont men on the union ticket,
Wif. I). Mullen and George Miller.
For District Attorney .James 11. Smith, Esq,
is on the union ticket. Who Mr. S. is in favor

TitBBiDLB OLTttACB.—On Thursday evening
last, a party of some (wcniy-flrc U. S. Sol
diers, now stationed at the Carbide Barracks,
entered the orchard of Mr. Alexander M’Dow
ell, (who resides at the cast end of our (own,)
and commenced helping themselves lo apples.
Mr. M'Dowell approached them and ordered
them off, when a simultaneous attack was made
upon him, with clubs and stones, by about six
teen of the troops. Ono of the men struck him
a powerful blow on the head with a stone, frac
turing tho skull in an awful manner, and expo
sing tho brain; the others beat him with clubs,
indicting several Very severo wounds. Mr.
M’Uowxi.l was carried lo his house senseless,
and tn«d>cal aid immediately sent for. 110 is
still living, but in a very critical condition.
Wormnls were immediately issued for tho ar
rest of the troops engaged in tlio outrage, and
twenty -ftvo of them were marched lo town, un
der a strong guard. After a hearing beforejus
lice Uolcouo, sixteen ol tho number wore com
mitted lo jail, to await their trial. Wo hope
they may bo punished to the full extent of tho
law.

arid respect bun most. Mere abuse never yet
injured the political prospects of a candidate
for office, and when it is resorted to, only
proves the weakness of the cause attempted to

i liko his competitor, Mr. Todd, we will ven
• ture to assert that for sound sense, strong ren-;
, fioning powers, and .general information, ho is
i at least his equal, and in sterling political hon
esty, he is vastly Iris superior.
i We again assert that Dr. Am. is an educated

to advocate and sustain them. lie is o Demo

been faithful to the cause and active fn support

in him by triumphantly electing him their rep
resentative in the next Congress.
Since his election, Mr. Todd has lost hosts
of his former friends and supporters. His and
nen conversion to Black Republicanism Ims ali
enated many Democrats who then voted for
him ; and Ids factious opposition to the Army
Bill, which, had it been successful, would have
had llio effect of disbanding our. gallant Army,
will drive from] his support hundreds of patri
otic voters. Ilis career as a public man is at
an end, and hereafter his treason and bis fete
■will serve as a beacon to warn youhg and as
piring 1 politicians not to be too eager in the
“ wild luint'nfter office.”
Hiram mmm.
The Vile, personal assaults made upon Dr. Am.,
by Urn opposition papers of this Congressional
district, Is evidence of worth.
Dr. Am. is not a graduate of a college, it is
true, but in point of intelligence -and Integrity
of chaructcitbo will not sutler by n comparison
with his vain and 1 conceited opponent. 110 is a
farmer and business man, ami lias always been
regarded n whole-souled and honorable gentle,
man by all who have had dealings with him.—
For a reckless and abandoned press to nttompt
to injnno such a man by boaping upon li/a bead j
theft annthnmns, trill only make thoßo who know I
him stick tho closer to him. Uo can well treat
their slanderous epithets ami villainous lies with
silent contempt. Should hb bo elected to Con f 1
gross, (and wo Cud satisfied bo will-be, by a I
large majority.) ho will make n most valuable
I and' efficient member, and will TcprosoiU llio
whole district and tho whole people, and hot
merely a little clique of Yankee Abolitionists,
who fuel no interest in the district, and Imve no
sympathy in common with our people, lie Is
no factlonisl, but an opbn out-spoken man, who
Is not atmid to avow ids opinions on all subjects
before tho people. lie will not contract with
the Government to serve as a member of Con
gress nt tho rate of $8 a dny and than charge
and pocket $lO a day. lie will always bo found,
too, voting for tho necessary supplies to tho j
American army, and will oppose any scheme
calculated to embroil our people in civil war.—
IVo ask tho people of this Congressional district
if tliis is not tho kind of man they want at
Washington to guard their interests.
But, say tho opposition, Mr. Todd Is a man of
education, and possesses talents of a high order.
Wo believe ho is, like thousands of other very
small men, a graduate of a college, but if ho is
a’raan of talent whero has ho shown it 7 Dur
ing his term In Congress ho made one little,
contemptible school-boy speech, fa which ho
said that rather tlwn vote for a national man for
speaker ho would prefer to have his right arm
withered. If wo can find room for this speech
wo shall publish It before tho election, merely to
show how great a man this Mr. Todd Is. The
fact Is wo hare entirely too many pettifoggers In
Congress—too many young lawyers, who ore
unable to make a living by their fwofesslon, and
who sro constantly Interrupting tho business of
tho House by their silly Httlo speeches. . Tho
people prefer n man of good sense oqd good
business quallflcfttftns to guard their interests.
Such a man is Dr. Ant, and ho la tho man tho
people will elect. They liaro had cnoiigh of
Abolition legislation at Washington to lasi them
a quarter of n century, and they havo sworn in
their hearts dial they will havo do more.

■ AFRAID TO FACE THE MUSIC.'
The oppomtloiVpnpers of this .Congressional
district ore evidently very, much alarmed (and
well they-may be) ■ because oftke opposition
manifested in nil quarters to the re-,elect ion of
Mr, ToWi -Last week all the-papers, in his in*
terest made a systematic attack upon Dr. Aul.
the*Dcmocratlo candidate, and attempted, by
misrepresentation, to defend Mr. Todd. 'The
Herald of - thfc ‘ place had a column jiv his de
fense, in which it attempts to excuse him for
having voted against the army appropriation
bill, and for. having charged SIC arday, -as a
member of Congress, after ho had virtually
agreed" with the government to serve at the rate
pf a £oy.: The Hcrahh pretends*?
indignkhtt Also, because we have designated
Republican, or Abolitionist.
Now, it matters little to us, and less to the
people, what Mr. Todd calls himself, or what
assertion his understrappers may.make in rc
gard-to his politics. His courso dn» Congress,
and the company ho is In at present; bellies
the question' conclusively. His whole course,
as, a member of Congress, was that of a violent
Abolitionist. He supported Banks for Speak
er?‘ahd Banks l is the" leading Abolitionist of
Massachusetts, and has expressed.-his readi
ness to ’“let the Union slide.” Indeed, Mr.
ToDd’s every position and every voto in
Congress, was that of an Abolitionist--he was,
oneof Hide most reliable men, and slucklo
■ and voted with them to the end. Even that
high-handed andf devilish schcrpc, concocted by
Qidpikqs, Halk, Banks, and Biucmnoamb,
to disband the American army and stop the
. wheels of .government, found in Mr. Todd a
willing Supporter. If he is not a Black Re
publican,in Hie name of all that is honest-,
, what is be ? In the Congress there
. were but tlireo parries, the Democratic, the
Abolition, and a few South Americans.- The
.Abolitionists wero in the majority,-and elected
Banks Speaker, and Mr. Todd voted and acted
with.this majority,, and-yct ho is not a Black,
. Republican, in the opinion of the Herald. Tell
that to the Marines, tfegiibor—you know 'yon
arc uttering a falsehood when you make such
, an assertion.
••We arc not of those who would condemn a
man on account of his political opinions, pro
vided he in honest in his belief. We roightdif-;
t fer with him ond oppose his political opinions,
and yet concede him the right to entertain his
own sentiments. But how contemptible and
dishonest is it in a man to deny his principles?
Mr. Tobn, when in Congress, voted and nUpd
tyilh the Block Republicans. Since bis return
homo ho has discovered that a large majority
Of lils constituents disapprove of his cOursCt-Ond*

Todo| Instead of defending his party jrfJßtand
irig up for jh’o principles ho malntaiift in Con

lie now says—or his papers say for him—that
if the people re-elect him he will do belter, and

Two Facts rou the Fkoplk to PoxrKn—
1. That llio Senate discharged its full duty
with regard lo the disturbances in Kansas mid
the disgraceful and -unconstitutional laws of
the territorial legislature, by najwmg a bill so
fair and just that it ought to have commanded
the support of all; and yet this bill was reject
ed by the /jous«.
2. That tho House refuted to do its duty
yielded itself to the guidance of the Black Re
publican faction, and 7 so far fro'iu redressing
the wrongs of Kansas, it sought lo paralyze
the nnn of the chief magistrate.
Tho record fixes the responsibility on the
Black Republicans. They did not want the
unconstitutional laws of l(ansaa repcalul; they
did not want peace in Kansas; they did not
mean there Miouhl be peace in Kansas; they
wanted lo use these laws, and civil war in
Kansas, os political capital to aid m the elec
tion of Jrcmonl! What Senator Crittenden
satd was true; *-Tho iDorcuicnt was designed
to make political capitol lo help Fremont in
the Presidential election. For this reason
Kansas was to remain a bloody scene for the
benefit of that pony.”
tThe above is true to thQ.yory letter, and can
not be denied. Whilst the Democrats, in both
Houses of Congress, were doing all in their
power for the pacification of Kansas, they were
thwarted in tluj attempt by the Black Repub
licans. Lkmuei, Toim, who is at present ask
ing lo be rc-cUclcd to Congress, is a member
of that parly, md as such voted tn every in
stance with them, and'ln opposition lo the
Union-loving Vjhigs and Democrats. Will he.
can ho bo ro elected? W« hope and believe not.
We know that the sentiments of the people of
this District is opposed td tho factions course
of the majority (n the late session of Congress,
and pn tho 2d Tnesday of October the freemen
of York, Cumberland, ond Perry, will, at the
bftllot-box, administer Such a rebuko to Mr.
Todd ns will forpvcr banish from his mind all
idea of Congressional honors. Wo trust that
every district in ihoStnlo, nowmia-rcprescntcd
by such men as Todd, may spurn froii} them

for every day he was serving the Know-Kolblng
party, Instead o( his constituents.
r Remember,also, that Lemuel Todd
voted himself Twelve Hundred Dollars worth ot
Bodkfi out of the Public Treasury.
■ Remember, also,; that Lemuel Todd
when : he was .elected a member of Congress,
made an implied contract with Ida constituents
that hojvould servo them for $8 por'day; but
>vhcn bo got a chance he took from the Public
Treasury
Three Thousand Dollars
for Which ho never gave the public any consid-
eration.
Remember, also, that only one De
mocrat from Pennsylvania voted for the Increa
sed.pay, whilst a majority pf the Know-Nothing
Black Republicans voted for.it.
Remember, also, that while such De
mocrats as Mr. English, of Indiana, who voted
against it, refused to. .take the monoy.thus un
justly, voted to themselves, Lkm’l. Todd POCK
ETED IT.
Remember, also, that Lemuel Tod<
who took S3UOO extra p^y—refused to veto for
the- appropriation bill that allowed the poor sol
dier, who stood upon, onr frontier’ to keep tho
savage Indians from cutting the throats of our'
citizens, but nine dollars per month.
, Remember, also, that Lemuel Todd,
who is now travelling this county and rending
tho bloody laws of Kansas, voted against
the Repeal OF THOSE LAWS—whilst
every Democrat In Congress voted for their Ho
peal.
Remember, also, that Lemuel Todd,
voted for Dunn’s Bill, which ESTABLISHED
Slavery In Kansas, until 1858, and provided that
the cliildrcn born therein and removed out of
tho Territory into Slave States, should remain
in perpetual Slavery. And (hat all the Demo
crats voted against It. Oh! consistency , thou art
a jcicel, truly.
Romomber, also, that Lemuel Todd,
Is afraid to toll the people of tills Congressional
district what candidate ho is supporting tor the
Presidency of the-Uoited Stales.
Remember, also, that when you £n
to'roto, that Lemuel Todd has proved himself
ttpwortliy of your support, mid that it is yonr
cliity to voto for /OUN A. AIIL, Ida opponent,
who will make an able, attentive and faithful
Representative.
Remember, also, (hoi Lemuel Todd,
(s avowedly of tho opinion that the llrpenl of
tho Missouri Compromise was cTbrcach of Nu.
tlonal faith, and dangerous to tbo government.
Yet as a representative in Congress, and sworn
to protecLtbc government, ho never,’ by word,
deed or act, attempted to reatorp it. 110 either
does not hultyvo what ho profesaea,- or was .re
cusant to bis trust. Will lie, or can ho, explain

Attention the Whole!
I Democrats and old-lino Whigs of Cumber-
IlnuJ county, we have our enemies on tho hip.
(They quail and cower before our strength.
They know their doom Is scahd. All that is
wanting to make our triumph more brilliant Is
increased energy and perseverance. “A pull, a
tfohg pull, and a pull altogether,** and the friends
of “JJuchanan #nd the Union” will sweep the
the county like a tornado. The current of
popular feeling is with us, ami is pressing us
onward and upwanJ, and should we not increase
our activity and vigilance? Where the foe
was at all powerful and commanding, no bailie
was ever won without a vigorous effort. Let
us am, go to work in earnest, and let us remem
ber, one and oil, that every man has his influ
ence ; and profit by the recollection that
“There is a tide fn tho affairs of men. which
Taken at the Jlood . leads on lo fortune.”
Then let ns be up and doing, fully alive to
the Importance of the crisis, and take llio tide
at the flood. It Is now but two weeks until
ll - first election, tho result of which will he tI 1C
tho sure index to the one that follows upon its
heels. Let us battle manfully and secure the
first victory, and tho other will follow as a mat
ter, of course, l/jt each and all of us be active,
zealous, vigilant, energetic, enthusiastic, and
wo will be invincible. All tho discordant ele
ments of opposition, embracing Know Nothing
ism, Niggerism, and ah tho other isms of the
day, will bo driven before us like chaff before
the wind, and Cumberland, glorious old Moth
er Cumberland county, will bo redeemed from
tho thraldom of Know Notbingism, ami be
made to spurn upon and repudiate the Disun
ion doctrines of Black Republicanism Abolition
ism. All shoulders to the wheel, friends ofihe
Unlun, and Cumberland county will stand re
deemed—entirely disenthralled.
Co to Wont.—Wo earnestly admonish eve
ry Dcniocrnt to go to work, and lenvo no lion
ornble efibrt untried to carry the Slnto Ticket.
Tills is the great business at present before us,
nnd 1,0 who, professing tho Democratic (hiui
nndo sincere desire lo preserve the Union, shall
foil lo put forth his energies to elect 11,0 nomi
nees of tho party, w(ll fail in tho performance
of n groat duly, which must bo the source of
unpleasant rellcotions in, oiler life. Wo hnvo
not a moment lo spare. The enemy nrc every
where active and everywhere milled in a do
termination to heal the Democratic nominees on
tho Second Tuesday of. October. Let , us show
them that wo nrc awako and well propored
that we know 11,0 imporlnnee of tho issue be
tween us—nnd, by ono simultaneous and vigo
rous cfihrt. plant tho (lag of triumph so high
and so firmly that it can never hereafter bo torn
down.
