®l)c Lancaster itcUixiatd't: VOL. LI. #ntriligencer =& Journal., ADDRESS OF THE DEMOCRATIC CO* COMMITTEE. To the Democratic Freemen of the City and County of Lancaster: ■ An address to you, adopted by eighteen mem bers of the late Democratic County Committee, on the 10th, and published in the Intelligencer and Journal on the 15th inst., seems to require some notice. If resistance to the supposed slight, inflicted by you upon the late Committee, in dismissing them from.their trust “ at the end of five months,” of which they so bitterly complain, were their* true and only object in this appeal, we should not think of troubling you with any remarks in reply. It would not be necessary. Individuals who for such a cause, even though the injury were real to the fullest extent claimed, could dare to distract and embarrass the party, would meet-their proper .punishment in the silent' contempt of the Democ racy. What! He a Democrat, who for being deprived of the honor of affixing his name to a call for one more county convention (the time and place of whose meeting are already determined by you,) could hazard disunion and disorganiza tion ! He a Democrat, who refuses to submit to the will of the ‘majority whenever it thwarts his own designs or wishes! He a Democrat, who drags his supposed personal griefs before the public, ami has so little confidence in your sense 'of justice as to refuse to trust bis cause in your hands! Truly, if such be the Democracy of the aiders and advisers of the lute Committee, then 1 you will say it is time tor them, to havn not.only a separate committee und ‘organization, but u separate name and creed; for such principles are not your principles;—wanting an they do, the very foundation uontiment of Democracy, which i>*, that the 'pQoplo aro honest and always ’do justice. But has thero\beon any wrong done these men ! Let facts speak: For years, till IB4U, it has boon an invariable usage Democratic party of Lancaster county, to appoint their County Committee at the which usually meets in August, to settle the County Ticket. In 1848, a Committee was thus appointed. But in 1849, it having been determined that no county ticket should be settled by the party, no convention met in the fall of that year. Hence the Committee of 1848, from ne cessity, .held over till the next convention of the party occurred, which was on ’the 10th of April, 1850, to elect Delegates to the Williamsport Con vention. That being the first opportunity for re lieving the old Committee from its task, a new one was then appointed—being the one which now attempts to. treat your lute Convention as if ,it had not been held, and claims to retain the honors and advantages of their office,till the 10th of April, 1851; for, they say, that their appointment “was to continue at least one year:’ But your representatives in the late County Convention, anxious to adhere to-old land-marks, and not will ing to build up any strange usages in the party, did not recognize their claims, and appointed the new County Committee at the usual time. They also, by resolution, fixed the day for the holding of the next County Convention. We shall not add a single word of remark or argument upon this indisputable statement of facts; except to 6ay, that the - change has been regularly made by the Legislature of the Party, (for such is its Convention,) called, too, into session by the recusant Committee themselves; and that though not a full year in power, yet they have had the opportunity of showing off by performing all the functions of a Committee. Their chairman has had the honor of calling a meeting at Steele’s— under this call the Committee met and called a County Convention, and that County Convention has assembled and performed its duties. These are all the acts indispensably incumbent on, or powers designed to be entrusted to a county com mittee. They have been performed and exercised, and- there is, or rather ought to be an end. If there are other powers not known to the Party, coveted by the late Committee, then has the end of their authority come none too soon. With this state of the case before you, you will probably arrive at the conclusion, that the loss of j a few months tenure of what has heretofore been 1 a laborious and profitless station, cannot be the cause which impels intelligent and shrewd men to * an act of sheer disorganization; and that there [ must be some other cause at the bottom of this j first step in party rebellion. i We know there is, and shall plainly and boldly state it to you, that you may be enabled to guard against the danger, and vindicate your rights as free agents and independent Democrats. During the whole of the late session of Con gress, the embittered question of Slavery occupied the public mind. Southern ultras and Northern fanatics, it is believed, desired and consulted to gether to produce a dissolution of the Union. Some heretofore prominent men in the Middle States, also fanned the flame, and preached up “danger and the necessity of compromise to save the Union.” But the Democratic People, whether in the North, Middle or South, never for a moment deemed the Constitution in dangerfor'the glori ous Union of which it is the bond, is wijh them, not a matter of mere paper or commercial con tract, but of abiding, heartfelt sentiment. In the long controversy on the floor of the U. S. Senate, which at length settled permanently this vexed and vexatious question, on the broad, safe and Democratic of non-intervention, the Demo cratic Union loving people of the land, were, ablv and fully represented. To Lewis Cass all eyes were turned. Every heart was warmed by the nobleness of his patriotism, the reach of his states manship and the eloquence of his language; and in no portion of this broad land, was and is this feeling more general and sincere than in the coun ty of Lancaster. Again: While the timid or the designing were crying danger! and offering to compromise the Constitution by making it the means of establish ing slavery south of a particular line, Lancaster county sent forth a voice which echoed through out every quarter of the country, asserting not only her abiding confidence in the . Union of the States, but the determination of the Old Keystone to do, and see done, justice to all. The eloquent and patriotic speech of Peak Frazer, in the Wil liamsport Convention, not only found a response in the breast of every true patriot and Democrat, but at once attracted that degree of attention to the speaker which his personal friends had long known him to merit. We say to you distinctly then, and we charge it upon the recusant Committee openly, that op. position to the well known and growingpopularity of Lewis Cass for Jj*resident, and Reah Frazer for Governor, amonglkjhe Democrats of Lancaster county, and not tfie r few odd months of the year, which they claim, is the true cause of the disor ganizing move upon which they have dared to venture, and of their attempt to retain power in order to make that opposition effectual. You know the existence of the feeling in favor of the citizens whom we have named. You also know why and to whom it is distasteful. We shall, therefore, not occupy your time by dwelling upon this part of the subject; but shall proceed to •how how, by every means of suppression and do lay in their power, the recusant committee have attempted and are still .laboring to smother and c/>ncea! it. The late committee was appointed on the 10th r * April last. They did not meet or act as a com r.v..'.te* till the 21st of August following. Why -*r\z this 'May ? Our County Ticket should have in August, if party usage, to which so tenaciously, was their rule; where ** e/Ul for the Convention was not issued till fate tft that month. " ***., viH* unjustifiable and designed r>i*7. SSrA what was iu object 1 Why, undoubt yt> suppress the expression of the well known verity on the subject .of Governor President. I hat it was ho with regard to (,rr"wtr, » proved by*tbe proceedings of the VittitMtUie (tn the 2Ut of August, for they then •cAprtmly revived that the election of delegates to the Reading Convention “ be postponed to a future f*rv< ]” v f Wail, the Democracy of the county, in Convert tion assembled, on the 18th of September, obeyed this strange mandate and did not elect Delegates. What, then, do the committee complain of in this respect? The reply is, that although delegates were not then elected, the voice of the county in favor of Col. Frazer for Governor, was uttered. This is the true difficulty. It was, therefore, not the election of delegates, butYhe election of Frazer delegates that they wished t</prevent; and the county hav ing declared bier sentiment on this subject as fully as if delegates instructed to vote for him had been elected, is what annoys them. But, say the recusant committee, “the period between the 21st of August and the 18th of Sep tember, fittle more than three weeks, was entirely too brief to enable the Democrats of Lancaster county to investigate, decide and act on the ques tion of Governor!” And who made it brief! Could not the,committee have May or June, or even in July, and thus have afforded am ple time, if they thought time was necessary ? But well they knew that the minds of the Democracy were made up, and that if an opportunity had.been afforded, the acclammation for Cass and Fbazer would have been nearly general over the county. Of a.piece with this same system of suppression and delay, is the refusal of the recusant committee to recognize the call of your late representatives for a convention on the 13th of November. They have actually dared to nullify thisact of the legis lature of the parly, and have called a convention on the sth of March, 1861. No one, in his senses, believes that this act of rebellion would bo ventured an merely to show their independence. It must have some other mo ! tivvu Whethrr it is designed to conceal the true stole’ of feeling on the Prcsidnncy here, and in the meantime to watch tho course of events, and to make capital out oft he Tariff or some other question (hiring next winter, now that tho slavery compro mise in a fuiluro, it is not for us to tmy. But that such un outrage has been perpetrated without adequate motive, will hardly ho asserted, Thus you will perceive, fellow Democrats, that those who were lately .trusted, as the execulivo organs of your party discipline, have not only used their power to suppress .the expression of your known sentiments, but arc now seeking to perpet uate its possession for the pnrposo of misrepresent ing your wishes and defeating your will. You well know how to rebuke such treason to Demo cracy without any advice from us. Having thus laid bare the motives of the recu sant committee, we shall now briefly comment upon some of their arguments ; though not one of them has the slightest relevancy, that we can per ceive, to the committee’s seven month’s claim, which is their great grievance. The first, such as it is, is contained in the state ment, that little more than twenty years ago, the democratic party was in a decided majority in this county ; and that since “ we have not been adding that strength to our party which the soundness of our cause should warrant;” the whole passage con veying the idea that we have numerically lost force. An examination of the following tabular state ments, which, however, go back a little more than the twenty years at which they see fit to begin, will expose the fallacy of their assertions. So far from the Democratic vote decreasing, it has steadily increased, notwithstanding the powerful opposition and influence brought against it. In 1827, the Federalists of this county settled their last ticket, by that name; and in 1828, a portion of that party found themselves under the name of Jackson Republicans, united to the De mocratic Party under the prospect of eventually enjoying places of honor and profit. In 1829, Anti-Masonary came into existence, not only producing great changes in the democra tic vote of Lancaster county, but completely revo lutionizing the Democratic counties of Erie, Union, Mercer, Somerset, Lebanon and others, which, from that day to the present have given heavy majorities against the Democracy. True, Anti-Masonry is now no more: but those who then left the democratic riTnks, have almost to a man joined the Whigs, while the few who have come back are the constant theme of denun ciation by these professing democrats. Next in order came Nativism. And here again our party suffer in the withdrawal of a large number from its ranks, most of whom are now active co-operators in the Whig party.— In Lancaster city alone, at least two hundred left the Democratic party, and',in the county of Phila delphia, the strong democratic districts.of South wark, Kensington, Northern Liberties and Spring Garden, all gave way to this new excitement. Nevertheless, against all opposition—with no influence from lucrative county offices—and with professing democrats ever ready to assail Regular Nominations, the Democracy of this county have gone on steadily increasing* from’26ol votes in 1815 to 6080 in 1848. Here are the figures : On the Legislative and Congressional Ticket from 1815 to 1828. Congress. 1815. P. (iloninger, Fed., James Wallace, Dem., Assembly. James Buchanan Fed., M. C. Rogers Dem., 182#.

Longstreth, Dem., 5514 Johnston, Whig, 9727 President. * Polk, Dem., 6080 , Taylor, Whig, 1 1,390 v The next very relevant argument of the late Committee is to be gleaned out of the following assertion relative to the Gubernatorial Convention of 1848: “If our delegates had acted in accord ance with the well known wish of their constitu ents, and supported Col. Bigler in the State Con vention, after abandoning Judge Champneys, in & ll human probability he would have become the ’ CITY OF LANCASTER, TUESDAY MORNING, OCTOBER lB5O. nominee of the Party for Governor. In that event does any man doubt that he would have been elected, and ihit we should at this moment have a Democratic Governor, instead of the present incumbent?” Granting for a moment that the delegates from Lancaster county could have caused the nomina tion of Col. Bigler, what an unfortunate, but no doubt true admission for His friends does this ex tract contain! NoTless than that his failure to obtain the nomination caused these indiscreet friends either to abstain from voting or to vote for the Whig candidate, and thus to defeat Judge Longstreth. We never suspected this treason.be fore; but now having it from such good authority, it will be for yon, Democrats, to determine how far it was instrumental in defeating your candidate. But it is not the fact that the Lancaster county delegates could have given the nomination to Col. Bigler. That gentleman was not the second in vote on the first or last ballot, and on none of the five ballots would - the votes of Lancaster have given him the nomination, as the following table will show: ' •„ Ballots. - -A ( Ist. 2d. 3d. 4th. sth. Longstieth 48 53 60 64 83 Black 28 25 25 30 25 Bigler 27 29 27 21 23 Eldred 19 17 18 10 Champneys 6 u From this table, it also appeals that Longstreth would have been settled on the fifth ballot, even without the vote of Lancaster county, 66 being n majority of tho whole number cast, whereas lie received 83; and that Judge Black received 30 votes on the 4th ballot, being it greater number than were given for'Col. Bigler nt any time. Yet we do not hear Ihe friends of Judge Black ntwert ing that if Lancaster county had voted lur him he would have linen nominated! Another of their arguments, nut hearing on their seven months claim, but on their refusal to permit you lu think about Governor, is to bo sought in the. assertion that thoy did not wish to introduce an “angry -contest” about Governor, into the county, while the important election of Canal Commissioner, Auditor General and Surveyor. General wns pending, but that “ they were pre pared should public opinion express itself in favor of the call of such Convention, to obey its man dates as early as the wishes or the interest of the party should require.” To say nothing of the new mode of promoting the success of a party by suppressing the feelings of the county in favor of its favorite candidate, the obedience of the recusant Committee as to the time of holding the Conven tion is somewhat remarkable. “ Public opinion,” in the form of a resolution by the regular County Convention has expressed itself “in favor of a convention on the 13th of November, 1850.” The late Committee “ obey” this “ mandate ” by call in g a convention on the sth of March, 1851. The next of their singularly applicable argu ments on the same branch of the subject, is con tained in the syllogism that, inasmuch as it was proper to postpone the election of delegates to the Williamsport Convention “ till within a short time prior to the holding of that Convention, it is infi nitely more important at the present moment that this course should be adopted in regard to the next State Convention ;” because, “ then, we had only to select a candidate for Canal Commissioner; but now we have in addition to a candidate for Canal Commissioner and for Governor, to elect five can didates for the important offices of Judges of the Supreme Court of the State.” Now, as to the of fice of Canal Commissioner, we assert, that no de lay is requisite to enable the Democrats of Lan caster county to act. The next Democratic can didate will, no doubt, be from the west; and the duty of selecting the right man from those who may be put in nomination, would be as well and as safely performed by delegates appointed in Sep tember, as in November or March. As to Governor, we have already developed the game of the recusants. .And as to Supreme Judges, we unhesitatingly pronounce the allusion to that matter an after thought, pressed into service since the election.— The amendment to the Constitution providing for the election of Judges was not only then not adop-. ted, but it is said that some of these Democrats both labored and hoped for its rejection, in opposi tion to the vote of the County Convention. It is scarcely to be supposed that they wished to put off the Convention till after the election in order that, if they could not defeat the amendment itself, they might control the selection of candidates for Judges under it. In the concluding part of their address, the re cusants come back again to their great grievance and endeavor to clinch it with something very like a misstatement. They at least use terms cal culated to leave a false impression on the minds of persons uninformed of the true state of the case.— Speaking of the fact that the Democratic people of Lancaster county dared to prefer Col. Frazeii as their candidate for Governor, and that their dele gates presumed to express that preference by the adoption of resolutions in the late County Con vention, pledging the county to sustain him, the recusant committee say that “ a protest, signed by Delegates from 17 election districts** was present ed ; thus using language expressive of the idea, that 17 districts protested; when, in fact, only 6 out of 38 protested by a majority of each of their delegates. The remainder of the recusant com mittee’s “ large number” of protestants and sece ders, being scattering individuals, who differed from the majority of their own colleagues, and thus mis represented their districts, as the result will show when the question again comes before their con stituents. 3051 2502 4642 3666 Thus, fellow Democrats, have we, at more length than could be wished, reviewed this whole unplea sant affair. It is for you now to act. Your deci sion shall be, so far as we are concerned, final and conclusive. If the late committee are actuated by the same spirit, then there is a short mode of determining the matter. A convention of the party, which is supe rior to and the source of all committees of the party, has called another convention to take place on the 13th of next month, thus adopting the usage by which our National Conventions are called, and under which the Reading Convention itself assem bles. If the late committee represent, as they seem to intimate they do, the majority of the people, let them, with their friends, participate in the choice of delegates to the November Convention, which neither they nor we, but you, the party itself, in Convention assembled, have originated. Should the result be as they predict, we shall sub mit without a murmur, and retire to the private station from which your voice has called us. But without such a verdict wc shall not betray the trust reposed in us. JACOB B. AMWAKE, Chairman. * k A Fact Worth Knowing.” Under this head the True Union of this city pub lishes the following from “an authentic source. I ' If it should prove equal to its profession, we have several silvery headed friends who would like to avail themselves of such a convenient mode of be ing “done brown,” or most any other color: “A distinguished General (Twiggs) returned from the Mexican war covered with “glory.” He had, however, two marks of hard service . which laurels could not hide—as they did C®sars bald ness. One was a head as white as wool; and the other a cutaneous eruption on his forehead. For the latter he was advised to try a mixture of sul phur, and sugar of lead and rose water. In apply ing it, some of the mixture moistened the hair on his forehead, and after a while this part of his hair resumed its original color. He then applied the mixture to all his hair, and it all became, and is now, of its primitive sandy hue. He communica ted the fact to some of his friends in Washington— especially to some ex-members, who are widowers and seeking preferment —and it has been found effi cacious in every instance. It does not dye the hair, but seems to operate upon the roots, and restore the original color. “The recipe is as follows: —1 drachm Lac Sul phur; 4 drachm Sugar of Lead; 4 ounces Rose Water; mix them; shake *the phial on using the mixture, and bathe the hair twice a day for a week , or longer 11 necessary.” * “ THAT COUNTRY IS; THE MOST PROSPEROUS, WHERE LABOR COMMANDS THE GREATEST REWARD »» Buchahan Home Education for a Select Number of Young Aston Ridge Seminary , near Pbll’a Rev.
