ITT The Spring Tenn of the Cou
dersport Acudeiny will continence on
Wednesd.ty next, the 19th inst. We
hope not onl}• to see a large number of
students present themselves on that
occasion, but that the friends of the insti
tutiorrhereabouts will show their appre
ciation of Mr. Bloomingdale's services
by being present.
nr We ask attention to the letter of
the-Hon. David Wilmot, to be found on
the first page. It is a noble vindication
of the principles of true democracy
acrd if the contrast between thiS and
sham democracy is not entirely in favor
of the former, then we are no judge of
what is s true and manly. ißut read and
decide for yourselves. Some of the
friends of the Douglas fraud pretend to
believe that if they only understood the
matter they would. learn to oppose it.
To all such we have only to say, The
people know more of this iniquity already
than the men who concocted it meant
they should, before its consumination ;
and thatibe mare they know about it,
the more they despise its authors—as,
witness the result of the election in
Con aecticut.
W.higs of I'ennsylvania, see what
ycur asso:•iates are doing. The Cold
Water (Branch Co.. Alich.,) Journal, a
leading Whig paper, thus concludes an
artic!e, urging union among the oppo,
tents of he repeal of the, 'Missouri Con
promise:
Let us, then, friends of the Union,
fri:•nds of Psmestic Peace, friends of
National Faith and Honor, friends of
American Liberty. whatever and of every
party, all who are opposed to the Ne
trasita Platform Test, act in concert and
union, for the sake of the Union."
Let us respond to the noble action of
New jlrunpshire—not that we love party
names less,but that WE LOVE OUR L . OON•
TRY MORE. Let the INDEPENDENT DE
MOCRACY of Michigan, whether known
as Democrat, Whig, or Free Soil, comP
together in Mass Convention, for consul
tation and ACTION, at an early day—say
the latter part of April—and let us unite
upon unexceptionable, true MEN for State
nominees, and agree upon such union
of eflort as shall tint them, whatever
their former party attachments ; and
thus let Michigan give an honest, over
whelming :\ - erg-Hampshire reproof to
the Nebraska traitors."
We commend the above suggestion
from the leading Whig paper in Alichi
gan, to the candid attention of the Whigs
of Pennsylvania. It seems to be the
very higlft of folly for the opponents of
the Nebradta iniquity to pursue the op
posite course. If we unite, Wm. B gler
can be defeated, and the State redeemed
from the control of hunk-rism ; bUt if
the present position of party nominations
is persisted in, we do not see how any
body can expect a different result than
has followed each election for years back.
• The Whigs have it in their power to
secure union, harmony, aid success, if
they choose to will it; but they will
hardly expect anti-Nt brash Democrats
"nod Free Sailers to vote for Judge Pol
nockrwho has no other claim to their
support than the fact of his nomination
by a !Rig Convcnticn, If any such
expectations exist, they will undoubtedly
be disappointed. If there is to be union
anu harmony, it must be brought about
by action on the part of the Whigs which
8 )14 1 1 give Independent Democrats an
opportunity to act consistly, honorably,
and on an equal footing with the other
supporters of the ticket.
At a late Anti-Nebraaka . meeting
held in Portland, the following toast was
applauded to the echo :

MASS METING,
The friends - of Temperance at Clu
dtrisport have called a mass meeting et
that place, to be held on the 26th and
27th of April, at which time the Grand
Division of the Sons of Temperance will
meet there. We look for a glorious
rally of the prohibitory men, on that
occasion.
0 " The watch-fires of Prohibition are
burning brightly in Northern Pennsyl 7
rania; nearly , every man, woman, and
child are attached to one or the other of
the different Temperance organizations , :
and Rum's dominion in that section of
the State is toppling to its fait. Let it
crumble; the mourner will be
. 19 and
far between : a few politicians will wear
crape. but redeemed Inebriates, rejoicing
children, and triumphant wires and
mother:, "will - be clad in flowers and
smiles. As we wish to :" be in at the
death," we propose to be with our breth
ren on the occasion referred to, and
piotnise ourselves a season of pleasure.
—Crystal Fountain.
Boys, do you bear that ? The
meeting to be. held on the 27th is
attracting the attention of.thel ;
friends. of - Temperance through
out the State. They expect we
shall have such a meeting as will
inspire our friends with new zeal,
and the opponents of the Tem
perance cause with dismay.
Shall these . expectations be
realized ? If they are, it is time d
every friend of the good cause in
the county was making an ener
getic effort to that end. •
Distinguished speakers from
Philadelphia, Harrisburg, and
other paces, will be present. A
Brass Band will be secured for
the occasion, and our own never
failing discourse sweet
music.
Come, then, friends of Order,
of Industry, and of Peace and
Happiness —let there be a glori
ous rally on the - 27th of this
'month. Let us meet in, council,
and deliberate on the BEST WAX
to promote our own_ happiness,
and the happiness of our neigh
bors. Let us put away all dif
ferences oft opinion, and remem
ber only that we are members of
the great family of man, and
therefore bound to do what we
can to promote its harmony and
advance its prosperity.
This county has heretofore
taken the lead in 'the great move
ment of the day, against the•
traffic in intoxicating drinks.
Our citizens have achieved' a
great triumph on this question,
and have labored diligently for
the accomplishment of their noble
purposes. They are now fairly
entjtled to hold a grand jubilee
over the great work already ac
complished. . Let us make it such
as to add to the reputation of the
county, and increase the courage
and determination of our friends
in other 'counties. - To- this end,
let every bill and valley in the
county where a settler has made
his way, be represented in the
meetinc , of the 27th.
The following is from theCon
neautville Courier. We Say to
the editor, Come—the pleasure
will be mutual, and the welcome
such as only true hearts can give.
Friends, the 27th is close at
hand. If the demonstration is to
be a triumphant, one, it is time
every neighborhood was making
arrangements to accomplish its,
share of that triumph.
This is what the Courier says :
The next quarterly session of the Grind
Division of the Sons of Temperance of
P•mnsS•lvania is to be held in Couders
port, Potter county, on the. 26th of April.
Our friends in that county are, doing
good service in the temperance cause,
and will give the representatives of sub •
ordinate Divisions a hearty welcome.
We observe by the Journal that the
temperance people are getting up a big
demonstration there on the 27th inst.
It would afford us pleasure to be in at

The Great Source of Crime.
We .publish in another ' column' a
brief arcount of the execution_ of David,
Jewell, which took place iri Pittsburg a
few days ago,,after a long and unhealthy
excitement of the public mind.
The history of this-transaction is an
other strong argument in favor of the
abolitien of the gallows.
•L'ut what is more to our presentpur
pose, it is an unanswerable aigument
in favor of the. Maine Law. He-stated
publicly pn the gallows, that the deed
for which he was executed was not
murder, for be was so excited with
liquor that he did. not know what he
did.
.• •
The following letter to a friend . in
Philadelphia written a day or two be
fore his execution, tells the whole story
of his ruin; and points with unerring
language to the .causa of the .ruin of
thousands of others. Young man, will
you read this letter •and ponder on the
horrible evils -that incvitabfy flow from
the use of intoxicating 'drinks ? And
you men 'in CouderspOrt, who are ma
king a few paltry shillingi, by selling
that which does no good, but. which
. does do an untold amount. of -injury—
Will you read , this letter, and abandon.
a business whose legitimate fruit. is to
roar criminals for the Penitentiary, and
murderers for the gallows? The follow
ing is the letter, which welake from
the Pittsburg Di s patch :
Dear a few more short
days the existence and history of your
friend will end on earth ; and before I
leave, Dear Will, I hare a few words
of advice to leave one whom I. loved as
a brother, and which you appeared to
be to me, and have acted as such; during
my- long knd.painful incarceration, for
which I return to you, and your wife,
my most profound thanks. '
I trust what little I have to say to you
will not be deemed wrong nor out of
place; it may be a benefit to . you in
years to come, and you may profit by it,
which I hopti you will. Only look.
back to.the morning of the fifth of July,
1852, that glorious but unhappy day to
me. I left my little _family under the
promise to be back again in the course
of an hour, to accompany- them on h
railroad excursion ; from there . I got in
the company of some young friends and
took a social drink together, from that to
another; and another, and7yet another;
I then forgot my promise to those I held
most near and dear to me. And-it isto
! this blighted curse, and • against its use,
1 wish to . draw your attention. You
are younger than 1 am, and I know you
will bear with mein warning you from
ever, ci'er touching it. I know you are
not in the habit of it ; but you you are
kind, open, generous and free-hearted,
and -it is this that - makes me write to
you on this occasion—and you wilt-ad
mit that no one knows your generous
disposition better than I do.
• .My first piece of advice to you is
never to drink liquor in any- way—
never do it from the time you read the
last words of one who was always your
friend, and, thank God, you have proved
the same to me. But, for me to say
that liquor drinking is an evil, is what
every man, Woman and child will readi
ly admit ; and to say that liver drink
ing is the cause of intemperance, is also
saying what no living man will deny ;
and intemperance produces either di
rectly or indirectly, much the largest
part of the misery and wretchedness in•
our happy country. Its 'blighting, with
ering curse is seen and telt in every.
grade of society. It makes the rich
poor,. and the poor destitute. It sepa•
rates the ties that bind husband and
wife. It destroys the natural affection
existing between -parent and child. It
brings husband and wife, parent and
child, to an untimely, and, very often to
an ignominious death. But it is un
necessary for me to depict the evils at-{
tendant upon the use • of intoxicating
Iquors.
I wish from my inmost -soul that I
could have .looked with the same calm
reflection on this evil, when I had.my
liberty, as 1 have since seen and since
studied. There are but fe t es persons, I
am satisfied, but can call to mind in
their recollection, some friend, some
loved acquaintance, whose bright future
has been hopelessly basted by the vice
of drinking liquor.
*•
•
I will say no more in regard to this,
but my last word to you is=never drink
liquor, and you will be a happy man.
Leave of running with fire engines;
they are the means of bringing many a
good young man to shame and disgrace.
Let your evenings be spent in the soci
ety of your wife and child, and • my
word for it, you will be the happiest of
the happy.
I can say-no more—my heart is too
full. Farewell, Billy, farewell.
Ever truly yours, &c., .

HARRISBURG. March :31.
Three days have been fruitlessly
spent in discussions, and amendments,
and dodges, on the proposition to, sell the
Public Works-. It begins now to be
pretty evident that the Democracy is
gradually rallying against the sale, It
is very certain that the influence of the
Canal Board is being used to prevent it.
One of the latest schemes is to lease the
works to some pets of the party in pow-
er, tft' if that should be done, it may,
easily be foreseen that fresh troubles are
in store for thb Pennsylvania Railroad
Company, You may rely that, if it is
deemed'consistent with the safety of the
politicians --next fall, • the 'bill will be
smothered.: Let the people keep a strict
watch on their representatives.

It is about time for the- Washington .
Union to break forth in another Strain
of jubilant poetry.. The. Connecticut
election is a goad incentive of joy from
the Administration organ, 'which will
harmonize with its song - of rejoicing
over the New Hampshire election,—
Last year the Democratic Governor was
elected by the people, and had a plu
rality of ten thousand over the Whig
candidates. In the Senate, the Dem
ocrats had a majority of nearly three'to
one, and in the House a. majority of 66
over Whigs and Free. Democrats. This
year the Democratic party is over
whelmingly defeated in the popular
vote, in the Senate and House, and in
nearly ell the local elections. Cushing's

Of the Rhode Island election the
Philadelphia Daily Register comments
as follows:
Another State has spoken. Rhode
Island suffering under the rule of rum
and radical Dorrism for the last two
years, has repudiated her home intrigues
and the Administrationscheme . at Wash
ington.' On the first introduction of
Mr. Douglas bill into the IL S. Senate,
a damocratic member of •Congress ex-,
pressed hiss fears that his party was ru
ined in New England. nis 'tears have
been already realized. The Demo
cratic party in New England is pros
trate. New Hampshire was their strong
hold. It has fallen and the party, bare
ly escaped annihilation. 'Connecticut
was next, and a total rook followed their

The facts ,
of this case a published a
feW dayi since are fresh in - the mernery
of our. readers, :The editor of the Free
Defn'ocmt, Mr: Booth, was arrested on
charge of aiding and abbetting-'the ftigi
tive Glover from - the custody of Marshall
Cotton. At the close of the testimony
against him, Mr. B. made the following
speech to the Court. His manliness
and courage command respect:
May it pleas-e the Court :
I de -net propose to reply to the coun - -:
sel of the' Slave : Catcher, on whose un
supported oath I am arrested as a criru
inal,: and . am now on
. trial for liberty;
I leave that task to .diy'counsel. But I
wish to say 'a few 'Words, at this stage
of the examination, in -my own-defense.
For
. the first time in. my life I am ar- -
reigned before a tribanal invested with
the forms of law, on a charge of crime.
The warrant for my arrest charges me
-so the - legal fiction runs—with un
lottfully -aiding and abetting' the es,
cape of a : lniman.being•frorn bondage.
My answer to the charge is, that it is
not true - . Whatever 'aid and comfort'
I might have rendered to the hunted and
battered fugitive, it was only such 'aid
and comfort' as the.laws permit, as hu
manity dictates, and as thu plainest pre
cepts of the Christian :relig ion required
of .me, on. peril of my ioul. So far,
therefore, from having to 'reproach my
self with what I have done, I ought.
perhaps, to blame myself for not having
done more. Instead- of keeping, as I
haVe done. strictly within the letter of
the law, perhaps I ought to have braved
the penalty of those who broke open
the jail, and set an example of resist
ance to the FUgitive 'Law, by aiding in
the forcible fescue of Glover.
-But I knew that human bloodhounds
were on My track, ready and eager to
pounce upon -me with . all the authority
and force -of the:General Government,
and thatahe . Federal . Court and the
Federal of fi cials, Who take "so deep an
,inter-est this prosectition, and whose
suggettions have been so valuable to the'
prosecuting . attoiney, wculd rejoice at an
opportunity of enforcing the penalty of
an infamous law, against one who has
done his Part to make that law odious
to a liberty-loving people. I knew that
the Slave Power would rejoice at an oc
casion which would enable it to silence
my:press, while the Nebraska Iniquity
was waiting either for an ignoble birth
and a baptism by faith breaking 'god
fathers; or 'a hopeless death and an infa
mous grave, aid so I .chose the path of
prudence,',and maintained an outward
regard for a law 1 inwardly loathed and
abhorred, and treated as a legal verity
what I believe, in my inmost soul, to be
stupendousfraud, as wicked as stu
pendous, and a nullity before Gud and
Man.
•
But I nai l frank' to say—and the pros
_yew ion may make the most, of it—that I
svmpruhice with the rescuers.of Glover,
and rejoice at his escape. I rejoice
that, in the first attempt of the slave
hunters, to 'convert our jail into eslave
pen, and our citizens into slave-catchers,
they have been .signally foiled, and that
it has been decided, by the spontaneous
uprising and soveriegn voice of the
people, that no . human being shall be
dragged into bondage from Milwaukee;
And 1 :am bad to say that, rather
than hare the 'great C'onstitutional

allay it please -the Court : I under
stand well •nnd this community under

out by the prosecution. It is not be
cause I am specially -guilty, or more
guilty thari hundreds whom the slave
catcher's attorney would not think of
prosecuting, but because it is desired to
make an example of me, and the slave
power wants me for a victim. That
power wishes to introduce the discipline
of the slave: plantaticn-among, the edito
rial fraternity, to silence their voice in
behalf of freedom, and therefore it cracks
.its 'ash, 'or gets the District Attorney
and this honorable Court to crack it,
about my ears, as one thought to be
most . in need of such discipline. My
conviction and punishment, it is hoped
will strike ! terror into the hearts of the
people, and. compel them to stifle those
feelings of humanity implanted in every
human soul, which prompt them to
feed the hungry, clothe the naked, hide
the outcasts and obey the commands of
a mercifulOod, instead of the edicts of
cruel and wicked men.
I have done nothing in this case,

dying, I 'Would wish to blot out of the
