    that patronage would be showered on mem
bers of Congress from the Free States who
would vote for the Lecompton Constitu
tion. Since the day ol Buchanan s nomi
nation. the same enginery has been at work,
and it has thoroughly debased and demor
alized the party which sustains him. They
are an immense standing army, who eat up
the substance of the country. Their as
cendency has enabled them to lay their
hands on that substance, and this again en
ables them to renew their ascendency.
The have an organization which is as hos
tile to freedom of expression or indepen
dence of action as the army of Fouis Na
poleon. The word of the President is the
command of the General. Refusal to obey
is mutiny, and mutiny is punished with
dishonor and expulsion from the ranks.
Thus we see rising from the bosom of slave
communities, and the surging masses of
cur great cities, and the Federal offices, an
•organization that threatens to harden into
n despotism more oppressive to freedom of
opinion, and more deeply stained with fraud
•and steeped in corruption, than the parlia
mentary majorities of \\ alpole, hut having
no parallel in history, past or contempora
ry, except in the armies of a Roman Ctesar
or a French Emperor.

t&f"The attempt made in the Democrat

the smallest puujwv business we have known
anybody to be engaged in for some time.
TV e have said nothing against Mr. Naga

elected and place himself in the hands of
these pauper advocates, he would wc think
have a nice time of it. Mr. Peachy will
lose nothing by an investigation into his
benevolence, as tbose who know both the
candidates well do not hesitate to say that
the democratic candidate is decidedly more
closefisted than the other. The " pauper"
advocates therefore who are exerting them
selves to get Mr. N. into the commission

rob the county treasury for such purposes
as they allege, will probably find themselves

t@k-S. S. Blair, Esq., has ben nominated
as the opposition candidate for Congress in
the district composed of Blair, Somerset,
Cambria, &c. Pershing of Cambria is the
Lecornpton candidate
HON. JAMES T. HALE.
The nomination of this gentleman as the
opposition candidate for Congress, meets
with that general expression of heartfelt
satisfaction which is only shown when men
of high moral, intelectual, and political
worth are taken from the ranks of the peo
ple as candidates for important offices.
Judge Hale has been no fluctuating politi
cian, but is known throughout the district
as an unwavering tariff man ever since the
clarion voice of Ilenry Clay proclaimed
that Protection to American industry was
the first duty of our government; and in
this light he is therefore of all others the
most fitting man to represent those classes
who almost with one accord now acknowl
edge that we want protection. With abil
ities of no common order, enabling him to
compete with master minds on all the great
questions of the day—standing in the front
rank in legal attainments—of an enterpri
sing spirit, which has brought him into
contact with the masses, not one of whom
but will acknowledge him to he an honest
and upright man, impartial in his dealings,
and true to his word—Judge Hale is em
phatically the man for the Times, a verdict
which we believe will be seconded by the
people of this district on the second Tues
day of October next.
We append the following notice of Judge
Hale form the Central Press, an Indepen
dent paper published at Kellefonte.
Hon. James T. Hale is a fresh man before
the people, and although he has lived many
years in this district, he never before was a
candidate for office. lie was appointed Pr**s
ident Judge of this Judicial district by ( 'ov.
Johnston, to Gil a vacancy caused by tnc elec
tion of lion. George W. Woodward as one of
the Judges of the Supreme Court. While in
that position Judge Hale certainly won gold
en opinions from the bar and the people.
His official courtesy, blended with n stern,
yet merciful administration of justice, render
ed his judicial conduct lieyond reproach.
As a lawyer, Mr. llaie has few, if any supe
riors in the State—his acquirements being of
that character which can happily blend the
practical operations of life with the theories
and speculations of jurisprudence. Among
the people, the people personally acquainted
with Judge Hale, lie stands deservedly high,
and it is not alone his moral character which
gives him weight and influence, but it is bis
enterprise, which has been shown in so nia
nv great improvements, and the promptness
with which he seconds any movement, for
the benefit of the people. Iu polities, Judge
Hale claims to be a Whig, and has always
advocated the principles of (.'lay and W< 1 st<"r,
for protection. While doing this, he was en
gaged in his profession, and was never known
strictly as a politician. During the discussion
of the Kansas question, Judge Hale was de
cided in his opposition to the Eecompton
Constitution, having no concealments to make
either in private or public, lie took the po
sition taken by Senator Douglas, in favor of
popular sovereignty, and the right of the pen
pie of a territory to adopt any constitution
however peculiar, so long as it does not
conflict with the Constitution of the United
States.
NEWTON HAMILTON, Sept. 11th, 1858.
Mr. Fry singer—Dear Sir:—ln the "Ga
zette"' of 'Jth inst. I notice an article headed
"I acts to be remembered." You are referred
to page 89'J of House Journal for my vote on
the final passage of the liquor bill as agreed
upon by the committee of conference, which
was the only opportunity I had of voting on
the bill at all. 1 disdain to take cognizance
of political slanders, but in this instance 1
cannot refrain from notifying you to be cau
tious. Respectfully vours,
< H AS. BOWEII.
c do not know whether the above
note was sent to us for j üblication or not
—we however give it word for word. Ho
much of our article as ascribes Dr. Dower
voting in favor of the free whiskey bill, we
will do bin) the justice to say that it was
wrong. During the main discussions on
the license bill he was absent from his post,
for what reason we do not know, and on its
final passage voted against it. We wrote
the article previous to leaving fir Williams
port, and bad we been here, we think we
would have discovered the mistake and cor
rected it. We have no wish to slander
him in anything, as he has in all conscience
sins enough to answer at the political tri
bunal without resorting to such a mode of
warfare. \\ bile therefore willing to cor-
rect errors or misrepresentations, we tell
him here that it he supposes " threats"
will deter us from making known his ter
giversations last fall, he labors under a
slight mistake. 1 here are " facts" connec
ted with the liquor business to which
we can refer, and, if any more sucli cau
tions come to hand, will.
Democrat has two articles about
j us this week which are certainly as non
| sensical as could well he imagined. There
is a vast difference in advocating the sel
ling of pure liquors and that ol the vile
compounds which now make men crazy,
not drunk. AY hat wc object to in bank
matters is, not to the establishment of such
i a bank, but to see a party professing to be
anti-bank electioneering for their legislative
candidate on the ground that he / s „ lan/c
man ! This /tax been done during the
present campaign.

THE CONGRESSIONAL EJECTION.
James T. Hale & Allison White.
" Who shall represent this district in the
next Congress ?" is an important query —
important in every sense of the word.
The election of Mr Hale will carry with it
the expressed will of the people that they
are in favor of the doctrine of Protection
to all the leading manufacturing interests
of this country, without anything inciden
tal about it; by his election the laboring
man and mechanic will say to Congress
and the Administration, "We have tried
"your scheme of importing British, French
" and other foreign goods, and British iron,
" and instead of finding that it has had a
"tendency to cheapen such things, orben
"cfit us in other respects, we see that it is
"ruining the men of capital in (his coun
" try who have invested large sums in man
" ufacturing establishments, depriving us
" of labor, and as a natural consequence re
ducing our means of living—a state of
" things well enough for office-holders who
" get stated salaries in gold and silver, but
" bad enough for those who have to earn
" their bread by the sweat of their brows."
On the other hand, although Mr. White
and his patent democratic friends may tell
you that he is a tariff man, with inriibn
tal protection, yet, will not his election he
heralded over the length and breadth of
this land as a triumph of that administra
tion which upholds the present tariff, and
is annually entering into treaties with for
eign countries by which foreign goods are
brought into ruinous competition with
American labor and American industry ?
Politicians may disguise a revenue tariff into
Protean shapes; tliey may prate about iu
c 'xh nUtl protection; and tell tlicir hearers
that " Protection for the sake of Protection"
is not democratic, yet the immutable fact
will stare every thinking man in the face
that never, until we reduce American t.
the standard of European labor, can our
manufactories compete with those of Eu-
rope, and especially in such articles as iron,
nearly the entire product ot which is labor.
Again: The election of Mr. Hale will
demonstrate that you, like the people of
Kansas, disapprove in unmistakcable terms
of an administration which perverted its
power and patronage to the passage of a
bill through Congress, tendering to a limit
el population a right to come into the
I nion as a s!nv> *(<:/>; by adopting a tyran
nical and obnoxious constitution, coupled
too with a bribe of vast public lands, but
refusing them that privilege as a free state.
On the other hand, the election of Mr.
White will be a virtual endorsement of
that infamous swindle, lie was on the
special committee to which the subject had
been reh ire 1. and although several propo
sitions for a fair adjustment of the Kansas
difficulties were offered, they were in al
most every instance defeated by on> nia
jority in committee, and that one vote was
given by Allison White. ly his votes
then the English bribery bill was adopted
and reported, and subsequently passed Con
gress. The people of Kansas, at the late
election, by a majority of more than nine
thousand out of a little over thirteen thous
and votes polled, spurned the bribe and the
bribers. Will the people of Central Penn
sylvania now endorse that member from
this State who thus misrepresented their
wishes? Will they say to him " Well
done, good and faithful servant," when by
his actions and his votes he was willing to
entail on the people of that territory a
constitution and code of laws at war
with light, justice, and our institutions ?
Will they thus say to hiui when they know
that in every instance lie voted for millions
of money asked for by Mr. Buchanan in
addition to the enormous amount of more
than eighty millions of dollars actually ap
propriated to support this economical ad
minstration a single year ? Their votes will
answer the question, and they may rest as
sured that the result will be as we have
stated. Mr. Hale's election will proclaim
your voices in favor of Protection, and in
condemnation of the Lccompton Swindle:
Mr. White's election will clearly indicate
your readiness to live under such a tariff
as nulliiiers, free traders and political spec
ulators may be willing to give you, and an
approval of the administration's course on
the Kansas question.

THE i-KGiSTATURE:.
The news from all parts of the county
indicates that the people will not again
trust T)r. Bower in the Legislature. Dem
ocrats who last year gave him a warm sup
port and exerted themselves in his favor,
now openly avow their determination to
oppose him. His course on a number of
bills where he must have known that his
constituents were not with him—his taking
S2OO extra pay, aud other matters all com
bine to render him obnoxious to those who
have to foot the"bills of such acts by pay
ment of heavy taxes, which in times like
the present are too sensibly felt to be dis
regarded. With Mr. Witherow as our re
presentee, the taxj layers may rest assured
there will be no votes given to favor mam
moth corporations at the expense of the
State Treasury—no snake bill will be urged
with haste through both bouses—but know
ing the wants and wishes of those who
bear the burdens, lie will vote untrammeled
by party leaders and uninfluenced bv other
considerations than the public good. If
the people of this State desire rid them
selves of the public debt, so happily began
under Pollock's administration, they must
repudiate political wire-workers and send
those only to make laws who are with and
of them. Put for political trickery we
should not now have millions of debt and
heavy taxation ; but for this, our furnaces
would not now be idle and our mines des
olate—laboring men would not be living
from hand to mouth—grog shops would
not be multiplied—distilleries would not be
the only improvements going 011 —nor
should we witness other scenes of degrada
tion and vice in great part attributable to
this state of things.

Dr. 11. 10. Morrill, a skilful Physician of
New York City,
In his remarks on Dyspepsia, says:—The
most effectual medicine to improve the tone
and energy of the stomach, is that prepared
by Dr. Geo. B. Green, and called the Oxyge
nated Bitters. 1 would publish the recipe for
preparing this valuable medicine, if 1 knew
what it was, but as I do not, I can only rec
ommend its use. It seems to me to be im
properly called "Bitters," at least in the pop
ular acceptation of that term, for it contains
no alcohol or other spirits, and is rather sour
than hitter. Though here, hy the way, I can
not too earnestly caution the dyspeptic sufferer
against using "bitters," the basis of which is
alcohol or other ardent spirits. They no
more impart real energy to the stomach than
a whip gives strength to a horse. The stim
ulation which they excite is ouly temporary,
and sure to bo followed by a reaction, which
at length will inevitably wear out the stomach.
The medicine of which I am speaking obvi
ates these objections.
