®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 t5O- t f-29 CHESNUT ST.
