Democracy North and South.
Ex-Governor Hammond, of South Carolina,
a Senator of the United States, and of course
a leadiug member in full communion with
Mr Buchanan's free trade and pro slavery
wing J f self styled "Democracy," delivered a
speech in the U. S. Senate on the 4th ult. in
which the well known contempt of the slave
holders for laboring men is fearlessly expres
sed. Some of the passages in this speech are
exceedingly rich. We give one byway of
sample:
NORTHERN* LABORERS ARK BUT SLAVES.
" The Senator from New York said yester
day that the whole world had abolished slav
ery. Ay, the name, but not the thing; and
all the powers of earth cannot abolish it.—
God only can do it when he repeals the fiat,
J the poor ye always havo with you for the
-nan who lives by daily labor, and scarcely
lives at that, and who has to put out his labor
in the market and take the best he can get for
it—in short, your whole class of manual la
borers and o/wratives, as you call them, are
fi'LA VES. The difference between us is, that
our slaves are hired for life, and well compen
sated ; there is no starvation, no begging, BO
want of employment among our people, and
not too much employment either. Yours are
hired by the day, not cared for, and scantily
compensated, which may bo proved in the
most deplorablo manner, at any hour, in any
street in any of your large towns. Why, Sir,
you meet more beggars in one day in' any
oily of New York, than you would meet in a
lifetime in the whole South. Our slaves are
black, of another, inferior race. The status
m which we hare placed them is an elevation.
They are elevated from the condition in which
God first created them by being made our
•lave* None of thai r ice, on theVholo face
<• the {*: jb'\ be • •u-oarcd with the-laves
tbs S-viih, aud *h'v lrnotr it. They are
• p?'}*. ->ut-,.<t, on?Hi-.<;ug ( and utterly inca
?••> 11 Ul -ftteiieetuai degradation, ever to
ptio i- nnv t.cublo u\ li.cir aspirations.
)' "' stares are ic/uti, oj your own race:
you are brothers of one blood. They are your
equals in natural endowment of intellect, and
Jhe j feel galled by their degradation. Our
elavee do not vote. We give them no politi
cal power. Yours do vote, and being the ma
jority, they are the depositories of all your \
d:ieal ; . :wer. If they knew the trumen- ;
• ■ that the ballot box is stronger ■
has sr. army with bayonets, and could com- i
bine—where wouid you be? Your society •
vciuld be re-constructed, your government re
constructed, your property divided; not as
-hey have mistakenly attempted to initiate
meh proceedings ly meeting in parks with
arms in their hands, but by the quiet process
oi the ballot box. You have been making
war upon us to our very hearth-stenes How
would you like for us to Bend lecturers or
agitators North, to teach these people this, to
aid and assist in combining, and to lead
them ?"
This language is a little different from dein- 1
ocratic speeches hereabouts, but coming from
those who rule the administration at Wash
ington, the sentiments will probably soon be
proclaimed as orthodox—unless the fact that
these "northern slaves" have votes should
render it expedient to keep quiet. Here is
another specimen which was uttered in the
C. S. Senate last week by a Senator from
Georgia, during a discussion on the bill to in
crease the army. He has, it will be seen, a
high opinion of volunteers;
Mr Irerson (Ga.) explained that he, indi- I
viduaily, was not .n favor of the employment !
of volunteer, RAW MILITIA, picked up in uroa
shops, that would be inefficient against the
Mormons. They might defend trains, postaj
or be used on the frontier service, and thus
liberate the regulars from Texas and else
where. He added that the government would
be satisfied with two regiments if it cannot
get four.
Mr. Pugh (Ohio) regarded volunteers as
preferable to regulars, but would move an
amendment that the clause requiring a "reg
iment from a State" read " company."
Mr. Cameron (Pa.) said that Mr. Iverson
was wrong in characterizing volunteers as
picked up in grog shops. He himself, the
,to*r day, presented the offer of a uniformed
mj any uf the most respectable young men 1
of Fayette county, to go to Utah. It seems
part of American na'ure to be a soldier, and
then to go eut to have a fight. If there was
any trouble about raising the number, Penn
sylvania could do it herself.
Mr. Houston (Texas) was in favor of the
volunteers.
Pennsylvania Legislators
On the first, the Governor notified the
Legislature that he had signed an Act to
release the bail of Daniel Zeigler, late
treasurer of Mifflin" county.
. MIFFLIN COUNTY BANK BILL.
On the same day, agreeably to order, the
House resolved itself into committee of the
whole, (Mr. Rose in the chair.)
The first section was read, and on the
question, will the House agree to the sec
tion ?
Mr. McClure moved that the committee
rise, report progress, and ask leave to sit
again ; which was agreed to.
The speaker resumed the chair.
Mr. McClure now moved that the fur-*
ther consideration of said hill bo postponed
for the present; which was agreed to.
SALE OF TUK STATE CANALS.
Mr. McClure moved that the House do
now proceed to Che consideration of the
bill relative to the sale of the State Canals;
which wos agreed to.
Toe bill being before the House on final
passage, the yeas and nays were required
by Messrs. Foster and Wilcox, and are as
follows: Yeas, 52 —Nays, 37—Dr. Rower
voting yea.
MIFFLIN COUNTY BANK.
The bill relative to the Mifflin County
Bank, came up in order on second reading.
The first section being before the House,
Mr. Bower said this bank is to be loca
ted at Lewistown, Mifflin county. He
then gave a brief abstract of the prominent
features of the bill. lie went on to show
that each stockholder was to be in fact a
director, which would prevent some of the
frauds that other banks are liable to from
faithless officials. In the 6th section he
said ample security is provided for the se
curity of noteholders by mortgages on real
estate and fives and tens by State stocks
deposited with the Auditor General. A
bank is required in this central portion of
the State. There are eleven counties con
tiguous without any banking capital. It is
necessary for the farmer who wants to sell
his grain. lie expects to get his pay in good
paper, but at present he often gets foreign
currency of a very depreciated character.
The iron interest also demands it. More
than twelve hundred citizens have petition
ed for the measure.
-Mr. Lawrence said that asking for a
bank at this time either argues great auda
city or a persistence in demanding what is
right. It is asked that a bank be charter
ed at Lewistown, which will he the only
one along the Pennsylvania Central rail
road for a distance of 250 miles. The
great objection to banks is that security is
not offered to noteholders; but in this in
stance this is done. First, real estate to
the amount of the deposits, then insurance
stocks, and then State stocks to the amount
of the deposits and notes issued. What
better security can bcoftcred ? He thought
the prayer of the petitioners ought to be
! granted.
Mr. Lloyd said there were novel features
| in this bill and some of them wore valua
ble. By the fifth section there is full se
curity guaranteed to the noteholder and
the depositor. It was State stock guaran
tee and real estate security—the best that
can be offered. He had carefully examin
ed its provisions in committee and ou' of
committee, and could liud nothing in it ob
jectionable.
Mr. Jenkins said there were incongrui
ties in the second section; it is said the
capital stock shall be §200,000, yet it per
mits it to be increased to §300,000 Again,
by the ninth section it is permitted to go
into operation with a specie capital of 810
on each share, or only 82,000 of specie.—
It is also provided that no man with less
than 81,000 of real estate can be a stock
holder—thus keeping poor men out of it.
It is as objectionable a bill as any that has
ever come under his notice.
Mr. Owen declared the danger of ma
king real estate a basis was that whenever
a crisis occurred to make real estate depre
ciate, the noteholders would lose just as
much as the real estate had depreciated.
The question was further discussed by
Mr. .McClure, and on the question, Will
the House agree to the section ? it was de
termined in the negative, by the following
vote:

ESCAPE FROM JAlL.—Michael Bloom
and James Beckwith, two of the inmates
of our Jail, escaped on Saturday night last,
the latter having dexterously managed to
slip the bolts and bars ot his cell, and then
aided the former in getting out of his.—
From the corridor they got into the yard,
and there with the aid of a crowbar prized
open the fastening of the lock. We have
a good jail, but it is evident that the Sher
iff must introduce more rigor into his man
agement and lay aside those feelings which
prompt him to mitigate confinement to pris
oners, for so long as they are suffered the
use of knives, etc. and to be visited by
friends and former associates escapes will
be made. Padlocks ought also to be night
ly placed at the bars, which alone would ren
der escape from a cell extremely difficult.
In the above case there is no doubt that
outsiders aided in the escape of the pris
oners.

PESPERATF/FIG ILL
T\ith a HUM icho wouldn't pay taxes.—
The York county papers give the particu
lars of a desperate encounter with a man
named Daniel Strong, in Hellam township,
who is a property holder, but lias not
paid his taxes for seven or eight years.
Whenever a tax collector made his appcar
i ance, Strong would drive him from his
; premises, and noofficer had yet succeeded in
arresting him. On Wednesday of last week
| officer Waring proceeded to Strong's place to
arrest him. Meeting him near his house, he
told him his errand, and at the same time
attempted to reason with him, peaceably,
and it would be best for all concerned. At
this Strong sent to his house for a pistol
and then commenced swearing in the < ierman
language, and abusing the officer in a most
shameful manner, thinking, no doubt, by
this means to intimidate him and drive him
away. The officer again tried persuade
Strong to go with him peaceably, but with-
I out avail. He then told him that he would
call on the following day, and then he
would have to go. He then left Strong
and returned to York. The next day, accor
ding to promise, Mr. Waring, accompanied
by offictr Hibner, again paid Strong a visit,
and found him and his son Jacob in a
field close by their residence, making fence,
with two loaded guns beween them. As
soon as they observed the officers—which
was not until they were but a few feet from
them —they made for their guns, but before
they could raise them from the ground the
officers also took hold, and now a terrible
mclce ensued—the elder Strong and War
ing striving for the mastery of one gun,
and Jacob Strong and Hibner striving for
the other. In the scuffle which ensued,
the gun whieh Jacob had hold of was bro
ken to pieces, and rendered useless. War
ing succeded in wrenching the gun from
the old man, fired it off and stood it aside.
In the mean time, Mrs. Strong and daugh
ter Susanna, made their appearance in the
field of action, and fought like tigers.
After one gun was broken and the other
fired off, the two men endeavored to drive
the officers away with stones, clubs, fists,
&c. but they "counted without their hosts,"
for this time they had men to deal with
who would not be driven away. The offi
cers, in self-defence, were compelled to
knock them down. Hibner succeeded in
getting his man down first, and commenced
to tie him. The old man by some means
managed to get away from Waring, seized
a pick axe and raised it to strike Hibner,
when Waring again took hold of him,
threw him down and proceeded to tie him.
Whilst they were being tied the women
rushed to the resoue; the old woman took
the gun, which had boon left by the fence,
and struck Waring with it (who caught
it on his arm) and broke it to pieces. The
daughter struck Hibner with a stone on the
hoad, causing a painful wound. The parties
finally submitted, and the old man, his son
and daughter wero brought to York and
ccmmittod to prison

HORRID DEATH*OF A CHILD.
Between one and two o'clock last Satur
day afternoon, while the mother was at mar
ket a little boy four years old, who had
been left to take care of himself, met with
a horrible accident and death. The child's
father, George Reibling, lives in Spring
Garden Township, about one-fourth mile
from Loucks' mill. The father, assisted
by another German man ; was engaged in
burning brushes, which had been collected
at different places in the field, and several
stacks burning at once. While so engaged,
it was discovered that the child, who had
been at one of the brushheaps, was burn
ing in a blaze. Reibling rescued the child,
whose stockings and clothing prevented any
serious bodily injuries from the burning.
Provoked at the child for his mishap, the
father took him to the house, where thc-re
were no inmates, and throwing the child in
a bed, departed to his work in the field.—
Some minutes elapsed, when the German
whoassisted Reibling, directed the attention
of the latter to the cloud of smoke coining
out of the house. On reaching the build
ing, it was found that the child, still in
the bed, was completely surrounded by fire,
with all his clothes in a blaze. When
rescued, the child was burned almost to a
erisp—the head completely bare of hair.
Four or five hours after this event, death
gave relief to its sufferings. As may be im
agined, Reibling threw the child in the bed,
while the fire from the burning in the
field was unextinguished; nor does it ap
pear that he went to any pains to look after
the safety of his offspring. When the
child's mother got home, and beheld the
horrible sight, such a scene as was presen
ted may easily be conjectured.— York Penn

Jfol/otcay'.t Pills. — Tlie fables of an igno
rant age may become facts in an enlightened
one, through the instrumentality of science.
Eastern romance introduces magic as the
agent of a thousand cures ; and sober fact, in
the nineteenth century, points us to countless
diseases all curable with absolute certainty by
Ilolloway's Pills. In the most fearful cases
of chronic liver complaint, dyspepsia, physi
cal prostration, and life-consuming diarrhoea,
we find the health of the sufferers restored
with wonderful celerity by this world-famed
remedy. Such is the magic of science.
The " Elixir" prepared by Dr. Jame.s
Williams, for the cure of I>y>pepsy, and
nothing but Dyspepsy, (as advertised in anoth

for itself so high a reputation in Philadelphia,
that physicians acquainted with its properties
are using it themselves and prescribing it to
their patients, convinced by observation of its
great efficacy in restoring the disordered di
gestive organs to a healthy function. Nu
merous cases of dyspepsy of the most aggra

incurable by some of the medical faculty,
have by the use of this Elixir been restored
to perfect health, as attested certificates testi

A CARD TO THE LADIES.
Dr DUf OyCO'H O OLD KM- FKM.ILK PILLS are
infallible in removing stoppages or irregularities of the
menses. These pills are nothing new, but have been used
by the Doctor for many years, both in France and Ameri

urged by many ladles who havs used them to make these
pills public for the alleviation of those suffering from any
irregularities whatever, as well as a preventive to those
ladles whose beallh will not permit an increase of family.
Pregnant females, or those supposing themselves so, nre
cautioned against using these pills, as the proprietor as
sumes no responsibility after the above admonition, al
