MANUFACTURING DEMOCRATS.
When know-nothingtem took its rise
some years ago, one of its cardinal princi
ples was opposition to the naturalization of
foreigners, and its opposition to the so-cal
led democratic party was based on the
ground that the latter was continually
manufacturing voters out of the foreign
element, and thereby controlling the bal
lot-box. Had any one three years ago
arisen in a council and predicted that ere
that period of time rolled round any
considerable portion of voters calling
themselves Americans would be found
working side by side with the foreign vote
in strengthening the democracy, a ride on
a rail would have probably been the least
punishment such an " insult" would have
subjected him to. Yet what has been the
actual state of Americanism since the sum
mer of 1856 ? Last year emissaries from
the straight-out leaders in Philadelphia
visited this and other counties, and instruct
ed their hearers to " vote for Buchanan"
in preference to the Union ticket, and this
year, here and elsewhere, electioneering
was openly done, for Hazlehurst first, and
Packer second ! and by this means, we have
not a particle of doubt, ten thousand Am
ericans have been converted into democrats
this fall, who will hereafter go with that
party, mainly on the ground of its being
the strong party. With such allies our
derr.oc.atic friends have no longer any need
of courting the foreign vote, for so long as
they can keep up the straightouts, they
can elect Governors, Senators, members of
the Assembly, and Congressmen, in three
fouiths of the counties in the State, with
out going to the trouble and expense of
hohdng political gatherings. All they
have to uo is to attend li Hazlenut" meet
ings, so as to have them heralded forth in
the Daily News as " enthusiastic gatherings

TRIBUTE OF RESPECT.—The following
communication, with the preamble and res
olutions passed by the Lutheran congrega
tion of Altoona, on receiving Rev. Baker's
resignation, we copy from the last Tribune:
On Sabbath, 23d August last, after service.
Rev. Henry Baker tendered his resignation
as Pastor of the Lutheran Congregation in
Altoona, Blair county, i a., as also of the
charge composed of Altoona, Duneaosville,
and Logan's \ alley congregations, to take ef
fect on the first of October, 1857.
Bro. Baker, eleven years and six months
since, entered upon the duties of Pastor in
this community, with but two very small and
weakly organized congregations, and but
schoolhouses to worship in: yet with christian
perseverance and Godly zeal, by the grace of
God, under his ministration three neat and
substantial churches have been erected and
completed, and three fine congregations are
now organized and our membership increased,
so that we now constitute a large and influ
ential charge.
From a statement made in his farewell ad
dress, we find that during his stay in this
charge, in the discharge of his ministerial
duties, he has travelled thirty-six thousand
miles; performed the marriage ceremony for
one hundred and thirty-six couple; preached
two hundred and twelve funeral discourses;
preached in ail twenty-four hundred times;
baptised three hundred and seventy-four in
fants ; baptised one hundred and twentv-six
adults ; received by confirmation thrtte hun
dred and fifty-three; received by certificate
two hundred and sixteen ; making in all ad
ditions to the charge, six hundred and ninety
five members. Truly he has been a faithful
servant, a devoted Pastor, and during his
ministry the church has been abundantly
prospered.
After services on Sabbath last, the follow
ing resolutions were offered and unanimously
adopted:
WIJEREAS, our much esteemed pastor, Rev.
11. Baker, has, in the Providence of God,
seen fit to sever the ties which have su long
and closely bound us as pastor and people,
by offering his resignation as Pastor of this
charge, therefore,
Revolved, That it is with heartfelt sorrow
ihat we accept his resignation, and deeply
lament that he has seen fit to take this step
in the midst of his long career of usefulness
and still abundant successful ministration
amongst us.
Resolved, That in parting with our beloved
Pastor we sustain no common loss as a con
gregation. Under the blessing of God during
his ministration, we have been greatly pros
pered as a church, and our intercourse as pas
tor and people has ever been that christian
kind that should ever characterize that rela
tion, and though it is painful thus to sunder
the ties that have so long united us, yet, with
the help of God, we have that assurance, that
if we remain faithful while here, when this
earthly house is dissolved, we shall meet
again in that church triumphant in heaven.
Resolved, That in leaviug his field of labor
and usefulness here, he will carry with him
united sympathy and entire confidence of all
his people, as a citixeu, a christian and pas
tor, and our prayers are with him for the
health and prosperity of himself and family
that his life of usefulues- may I'.i.g be spared,
and that he may be a- successful - v r! -
of love, iu his new field of lab- ; >.• bis
been with us.
Altuona, Sept. 29, 1857.
PRESBYTERY OF HUNTINGDON. —We
learn from the same paper that this eccle
siastical body, after a very pleasant and
harmonious session, adjourned on the Bth.
A large amount of business was done, and
several important changes made in the
pastorates of the Presbytery. Among oth
ers, the Rev. J). L. Hughes relinquished
the pastoral charge of Spruce Creek first
and Sinking Valley ; Mr. Shotwell that of
East Kishaeoquillas ; and Messrs. Shaeffer
and Jardine gave notice of intention to
relinquish their charge next spring. Mr.
Hughes goes to lowa. Among the reso
lutions passed by the Presbytery, the fol
lowing are of local interest:
Resolved, That this Presbytery considers
the Temperance reformation of undiminished
importance and that every minister belong
ing to the Presbytery be requested to deliver
one or more discourses upon the subject of
temperance before the close of the present
year.
In regard to judicial oaths, it was
Resolved, That the members of our several
oongregations be counseled, that when law
fully called to take the oath before the civil
magistracy, they adopt that form of the oath
prescribed in the laws of the Commonwealth,
which seems to be recognized in the scrip
tures, viz : with the uplifted hand.
Resolved, That in the opinion of this Pres
bytery, the ordinance of the oath, which is
recognized in our confession of faith as " a
part of religioua worship," is not explained
from the pulpit with sufficient frequency.
CHANGE IN THE WEATHER.—A heavy
■torm of wind and rain set in on Monday
evening, which at once changed the pleas
ant into rather cool weather, ice having
appeared yesterday morning in water ves
sels, Ac. Snow hakes were also occasion
ally seen.
