-v 5 * The whigs of this county have a
good ticket, composed of honest and capa
ble men, who are bound to no cliques, no
factions, and no particular men, but nomi
nated solely with reference to their integ
rity and worth, and as such are eminently
worthy the support of the people. To
work, then, one and all. There is every
incentive before us to do so, and if such nn
eifort is made as duty calls for, the Carne
rouiun ticket w ill not succeed in this coun
ty, even if the w hole power of the Middle
town Bank be brought to its aid.
- * The Democrat is ♦ trumping" up
Mr. Parker a good ileal above his calibre,
and would no doubt wish to mislead manv
into a belief that he would be a great man
in Congress ! This is all fudge. Parker
is nothing more than a second rate law y er,
who bullyrags witnesses, as manv a man
in this county will remind hiin at the elec
tion, and when driven to the wall in law
points, consumes the time of the court and
the patience and money of the people by
mating a sort of political harangue to the
judges and jury. This he has done here,
and should the people send this sprout of
aristocracy to Congress, i; i? all J lt; will
do there.
J er Kphraim Banks, Esq., was lately
down at Miillintown where he delivered
himself of a quantity of political bile
which had accumulated for some time, in
consequence -of no chance having been
given here to let it off-—the party in Mif
llin not being in fit condition for holding
public meetings. Among other things we
learn that he was much dissatisfied with
President F illmore for an;";':;-,;! U( . Tom
' orwiri, the Ohio wagoner boy, as Secre
tary of the Treasury. The President will
no doubt learn with much regret that his
appointments do not meet the approbation
of llu lecofoco candidate for Auditor Gen
eral of Pemisv Iviinia.

The Democrat's Answer to the Charges of
Fraud, Trickery. &.f.
The Dr-inoeiat talks around, about, above
and hriiiw the charges nu.Je against if
leaders of having tricked and cheated
Gibboney, Kittenhouse, and others, and
ets all ilown as ~ ami origi
• nated merely to attempt to excite dis
| •' trust in the minds of the democratic mas- j
" ses 1" Well, that's cool at least, ii nodi- j
nig else. \\ e knew full well the 1 ieinocral i
I would not give an ufiequivocal denial to ;
! the charges that have been made, unless it ;
I i
were within a week or so of the eb-ction, ;
because there was too much evidence of
the fact m existence, ani if the defeated
and cheated can only persuade themselves
that the whole thing is imaginary, why
no one will have much reason to com
plain ! Gibboney, for instance can " ima- I
gine" that Host, I>u 11 vV 10. acted'
fairly and honorably towards hint, that he
is now before the people as a candidate lor •
the legislature, and when the election j
comes round " imagine " himself to be j
elected, imagine that he is at Harrisburg j
receiving a day and daily answering j
ave or no, as the cause may be ! Mr. '
Hittenhouse can " imagine " that he is
stiil Prothonotary, Clerk of the Courts of j
General Quarter Sessions and (Iyer and !
Terminer for three years to come from '
the first day of December next, and if lie
does not feel the dimes and dollars in his j
palms as fast as before, imagination can j
supply the rest. Two or three candidate- j
for Commissioner in the valley who have ■
time and again earned the oilier by per- |
forming the drudgery of the party, can im- i
agine themselves to be the nominee in j
place of their particular friend Thomas I
Stroup. and if he should sit in judgment
over the county funds, reaping the emolu
ments and honors, they can imagine them
selves to he in his place, and, according to
the Democrat, all's well! Hut to the gi-l
of the matter.
That paper w iuds up its article by say-
ing :
" As thr allegations have been made, how - '
ever, we put ourselves on the country, and sub- 1
111 jt the indictment to the adjudication of a jury j
of the people, at the ballot boxes in October."
This appeal would be very well had the
Democrat ever informed its readers what
those allegations were, so that they might
he enabled to make up their minds on the
question at issue. This it has never done,
and probably neter will do. The editor
knows full well that in politics as in pri
vate life, there is a common courtesy due
-
i to public servants which cannot consistent
i ly be departed from unless sufficient cause
exists. By the usages of the partv Mr.
Gibboncy, as our neighbor we presume
will not deny, was entitled to a renotn- j
inalion, and the question then arises whv \
was he set aside ? There must hate I
been some cause, some motive, for doing ;
. so, or every honorable man w ill nrknow- j
iedge tliat if was an act of gross injustice.
and insulting as it was mean. Had the
party come to Mr. Gibbonev a.11! said*- Sir. !
i " you have not carried out the views of
" the democracy of Mifßin county , and we ,
i " cannot re-nominalc you," that gentle-1
I man, or any other man, would have tin- f
*
| derstuod his position—hut there was nolh- !
| ing of the kind said ; no intimation given
: of dissatisfaction, hut on the contrary one
of the now firm of Boss, Dull A. Co.,
• openly proclaimed 011 the day of the dele
gate election that he was "aGibhonev
inan first and last !" That declaration j
might have been inade in sincerity, but if!
it was a change came over the spirit of his !
dreair.s, for in twenty-four hours after- j
j wards a Sunday delegation of ministers :
I plenipotentiary left with railroad speed for !
M.Yey town, and on Mondav, without a !
j vv oril of explanation, John Boss was pro
claimed the nominee for Assembly ! That I
is a statement of the facts; and now will 1
the Democrat make it, and then go before j
' the Jury of voters and leave them to de- !
■ i
eidc. It surely does not expect a Jury to
make up its verdict without hearing both
sides, for such a verdict would be in law- '
vers phrase ex parte, and of course un
just.
But there is a point in the above to
which we wish to draw public attention,
because it involves a great deal more than i
meets thr eye. I'hc Democrat refers the
all< gallons to the people for decision, and |
it is clear from the purport of its language
that it the people elect the ticket headed
by Boss, it mill be used ers an approval of
(he eourse pursued la wards Mr. Giblm
ucy. " As the allegations have been made," '
says that paper, " we put ourselves on the
country, ami submit the indictment to the '
adjudication of a jury of the people at the 1
ballot boxes in October." Be it so—the
allegations have been ma/le, and are, !
among others, rial Mr. Gibboncy was de
frauded out of a nomination to which he
was entitled, and on this, according to the
Democrat, the people will decide at the
ensuing election. If a majority vote in
favor of John Uw**, it j* a condemnation
, ol Ir Oibboney and his cour-e ; if, on
the contrary, a majority decide ag.iiust
Ross, the verdict will he THAT MR. GIB
BONE V OL'OLLT TO HAVS BEEN RE-NOMLW
TED. We hope now that all w ill under
stand the matter properly, and the position
thev occupy as respects the next election.

A correspondent of the Juniata Sentinel
charges Parker, the loeofoeo candidate lor
Congress, with having declared in-<4fect
at a meeting in Mifflintown a few years
ago, 44 that the Whigs of the present day
were the anti-war party, because they were
opposed to the Mexican war ; that they
were, therefore, the lovers of the lcderal
anti-war party of 1812, that the federal
anti-war partv of 1812, was the lovers of
the ami-war party of 177tJ ; that the anti
war party of 1770 were lories, and ene
mies to their country," and therefore
the Whites oj the present day were TO-
It IKS, and enemies to their country.
This charge is made in the paper pub
lished w here .Mr. Parker resides, and from
the well-known character of the man, is no
doubt true. He also made the same dec
laration at Huntingdon. This then is the
kind of man who is held up as national
in his feelings—who loves self less and
his country more ! One who would be
willing nevertheless to bow the kuee to
slavery, and as strongly advocate its exten
sion as he now does the pauper labor of
Europe. Ye*, ibis is the man who soli
cits irhiif votes to elect him to Congress,
though he but lately esteemed them no
better than toriea !
TIIE STOP TIIIKI CRV. —The Democrat
gets up a tide that MeCulloch's friends are
bargaining with Ross for votes ! That
story won't go down—if there's any bar
gaining to be done we'll guarantee it that
those who bargained for and bought a ma
joritv of the loeofoeo county convention
will have a hand in the matter. It's their
•• natur," as Sam Slirk would sav.
Trouble In I.oeoforodoni.
In more than one half of the counties
in this State there seems to he a boiling
eauhiron of political hate among our loco
loco brethren, which ever and anon breaks
out into open and furious dissensions.
Hoth these tactions profess to dislike the
vvliigs, yet it is unquestionably true that
they hale each other much more cordiallv
than thev do their opponents. The Dem
ocratic I nion and a few other papers of
that stamp, have at different times suggest
ed that it would he belter to heal these
breaches, as the votes of both classes
might he wanted in the ensuing campaign,
hut thus far the advice is entirely disre
garded, and the battle daily w axes warmer.
I'he truth is, the whole matter is a FIOHT
FOR M SDKR. It is well known that the
C'ameroniaus have not only been driven
from all the principal offices along the
State canals and railroads, but that under
thr present regime of the canal hoard and
its engineers, that faction cannot secure a
contract of any kind. llcure has arisen
a contest between the ins and outs, the of
fice-holders and office-seekers, the con
tractors and would lie-contractors, that has
had no parallel in the history of politics:
: they denounce each other as political
' scoundrels, and resort to all sorts of trick
i cry, bribery, and corruption to have men
' nominated for oilier who will carry out
| their political ami other views. If beaten
: in convention, the other faction, whether
j Catneronian or atiti, gets up another can
; didate, both being apparently determined
J either to rule or ruin. In confirmation of
; this, we could till column upon column of
; extracts similar to the follow ing :
I The Pennsylvania!! in speaking of the dilficul
i ties in the Democratic ranks of this Senatorial
j district, says that the hand of Simon Cameron
is at the bottom of the whole dispute, ond warns
! the Democrats of the district to "he on the
| alert if they would defeat his intrigues. Our
! friend Forney is right—-Gen. Cameron has
I caused the whole difficulty, ami he has used the
I name of Mr. Anderson to enable him to carry
out his base purposes. Will the Democracy of
this Sen ato i ial district suffer themselves to be
. led by Simon Cameron, or will they, like free
men, resUt his impudent dictation. Cattish

The western papers bring us a long letter from
Alexander Mr Kinney, a loeofneo candidate for
, Congress in Westmoreland, who was set aside
: by the I.ocoforo conference in that district, and
John Snodgrass nominated, in which lie openly
I charges that the conferees were bribed, men
tioning their names and the sums given—s.">oo
in one case and Jl ,000 in another, lie declares,
j therefore, that notv ithslanding the nomination
i of Mr. Snodgrass, he shall continue a candidate,
and a portion of the papers of his party in the
district seem to countenance his determination,
as they resolutely refuse to support the nominee
of the conference.
The Huntingdon Journal says that some
fellows up there have been boasting that a
! few hundreds should not he wanting to se
cure Parker's election, if necessary. From
the way some hundreds have been talked
about here, we should think somebody's

LETTERS FROM THE HILLS.
To thi Editor of tkf (iizette *
Well, the old in an made hi.s promised
visit to town, but not a word did he say on
returning about the money he was to have
got. At last I jogged Ids memory about it.
| • Dad,* says I one day, 4 1 shall soon
j need that money you promised to get for
i me, and, if convenient, the sooner the bet
i ter.' -
j 4 Why Sam,' says he, 4 the fact is I don't
know exactly whether I can get it for vou.
I mentioned the matter when I got to town,
but they said you was such an all-fired
tariff man that it was no use to lend vou
j any money, for it would do no good. And
besides, Sain, you know the democrats
have turned their coats on that question,
and Andy Parker now says we must go in
j lor free trade, because we can buy iron
ami other things cheaper in England than
! we can make them.'
4 So, then,* says 1, 4 you and Andy
Parker and the rest of the locofoeos, have
all turned Britishers. To my mind that's
; a new idea in JefTersonian democracy, ami
I 1 suppose if you'll goon in your progress,
! it won't be long before Jefferson will he
, voted a fool, Simon Snyder a goose, Mad
| ison a jackass, .Monroe an ignoramus, and
I Jackson a mule—for it is as plain as a, b,
e, that you don't stick to any one tiling for
more than six months at a time now adays,
and as you have discovered that all the
professions heretofore made of sustaining
our own industry, so as not o be depen
; dent on British lords and ladies, in ease of
j wars, was all gammon, it w ill not he long
before you'll find out that it's more detno
| cratie to make kings rich than to give em
ployment to \our neighbors.'
• But Sam, don't you see that we were
all wrong before. I'm sure we were, for
1 can buy iron cheaper now than 1 did un
! der a tariff.'
j • \ es, and what effect has it had already.
\\ here is there a bill in old Mifllin that
now resounds with the woodehoppers' axe
\\ here are the miners, the coalmen, and
j hundreds of others who in hv-gone vears
found ready and profitable employ merit ?
, i uu have driven them away, rnanv from
the semes of their earlv da vs. and com
pelled them to wander here and there in
(search of employment, when nature has
• furnished material enough under our feet
I to give steady and " living" labor to hun
i dreds. Hut for the vvoodehopper's axe,
how would you ever have earned more
than a precarious existence ? Yet vvith
-1 out a dollar in your pocket at the outset,
as you have yourself often boasted, in less
than ten years you became the owner of
more than a hundred acres, much of which
is good land, and although tnv chance was
not so good as yours, yet 1 also bv dint of
• industry at the axe, got together enough to
| give myself a homestead. We were then
| protected from heavy foreign importations
by a proper tariff, and had it been let alone,
competition would have brought down the
, price as low as it ought to be brought.
| Hut the tune changed—such wiseacres like
Andy Parker and others who make their
| money by *sos and sloos, by giving ad
j vice on laws they themselves don't under
j stand, got it into tiieir heads that we .must
buy cheap, and so they arc now at work
j to break down the little employment yet
left to the poor man. They come and
j tell him that he eun gel British cotton goods
at two or three cents less a yard than
American—cloth at 50 cents or a dollar
less, and iron ware at similar low prices,
but they don't tell liim where fie is to get
! the money. \\ hat matters it, 1 should
1 like to know, to the poor man how cheap
things are il lie has not the means to pur
i chase them ? Do you not see that thead
! vantage to them is nothing at all, while to
the Andy Parkers it is everything? And
besides, if iron can he manufactured pro
fitably at the prevailing prices, why don't
some ol these lot speculating nabobs buy
up the forges and furnaces now lying idle,
and get rich, as they allege the iron mas
j ters can ? Let them face the same music
they want the laboring men to face, and
Il'll give them more credit fur honesty and
sincerity than 1 now can. So you see,
dad. that I'm still an all-fired tariff man,
; as your particular friends in town think,
| and to tell you the truth I wouldn't touch
! their money with a ten-foot pole, if there
by 1 should trammel my self into voting
j for any of their clan. They arc out on a
j fox hunt of some kind you may rely upon
; it, or Ross wouldn't have been put up for
| Assembly, and St roup for Commissioner,
and if it wasn't to gloss the thing over,
M'C 'i>\ might have whistled Yankee Doo
! die to Mexican gals for two or three eatn
j paigns more before he'd got the nomina
tion for Prothonotary. Take mv word
lor it dad, there is something wrong : they
gave you a small loan ol money for the
j purpose of asking you a greater favo be
: tween tins and the election, and if they
! don't do it, there are no niusketers in the
Narrows.'
Dad stood musingly for a while, when
he averred that I always could see some
thing in certain matters that he couldn't.
♦ Sain,' says he, 4 I don't see anything
wrong in one man lending another some
money, and I think it was very kind in
them town folks to offer it.'
4 Well,' says I, 4 I don't. If you'd
wanted the money, it would have been
another thing, but to tell you the plain
truth, my opinion is that, having heard
you were not satisfied altogether with the
ticket the leaders hail hatched out, they've
loaned you the money lor the purpose of
setting you straight.'
44 Setlin' me straight, Sam—what da
you mean by that ?'
4 Why that between this and the elec
tion one of your good friends will give
you a call, and after a sermon on the wea
ther and things in general, he'll hand you
a half dozen tickets of the settled stamp,
and request you to have them votrd by the
faithftil. And if you won't do that, I'll
bet )ou the best sack of wheat we've got
you'll have to fork over the money again
in less than no time.'
4 Well, .Sain, you're sometimes right,
and sometimes wrong, but to prevent mis
takes I'll not spend any of this money un
til 1 see the bargain in black and white,
and then 1 can choose for myself. And
though 1 won't say I'll vote for the ticket
or agin it at this time, may I be dot rotted
if I'll ever be bought or sold like a sheep
by the drovers in politics.*
4 Slick to that, dad,' says I, 4 its a good
resolution—ami the cleaner you keep your
lingers from them chaps in lending or bor
rowing, the more likely you'll be to keep
your farm.'

our county ticket was a paying subscriber to
the Gazette, long previous to his nomina
tion—five of them since we have had the
paper in our hands, and the others for two
or three years.

the accommodation of Ross, Dull Jt Co.
I®' A member of the Town Council iu
f rins us that that body has already con
tributed a considerable sum ($10U) to
wards enclosing the old Grave Yard —a
fact we were not previously aware of—
and anxious as they are to see that reiter
ated spot reJeomed from being the haunt
of swine and cattle, they do not feel at
liberty at this time to appropriate more of
the borough funds to that purjrose. As
individuals however they are willing to
unite in any measures that will aceompli.-h
the desired end.
Hopt'Kß, we perceive, has turned his at
tention for the present to a new inprove
inent that promises to be of much benefit
to the public, as we hope it will be to hint
self He is putting up a substantial dam
across the Kishacoquillas just above the
new mill, and intends to convert the old
stone mill into a general machine shop, in
which he will have a plaster mill, saw
mill, turning lath, and half a dozen other
notions. This will give employment to a
considerable number of bauds, aud we
heartily wish him success.
