an injnry upon an '' V
Let ns see togh>m states, is
consistent with a certtfe atate of feet*,*with which
many are familiar, and has not been
between him and JodgeLewis alightest” dif
ference. By reference to the files :of the Bradford'
Settler, edited' by Hi‘A. Kerr, in, the fall of 1831, j
we find that Ellis LeVis then took a conspicuous
part against S. D. Ingham. At that timea portion :
of the democratic party'in this state, attempted an j
opposition .to Gen. Jackson, and sought to prevent |
his re-election. Martin Van Boren was ao object |
of peculiar hatred to them; among the prominent;
leaders in this movement, was S. D. Ingham. He
had just been removed from the cabinet by-Gen.
Jackson, in consequence of his course in relation to
Maj. Eaton, and his v slanderous imputations against
the Major’s family. Such was his nice sense of
honor and character then, that be could not refrain
from injuring an innocent and unoffending woman.
He had undertaken also to drive Martin Van Buren
from the confidence of the President Galled and :
stung with mortification by his removal he com
menced his career to distract the democratic party,
probably as in the matter against Lewis, without a
motive.
Judge Lewis, it is well known here, approved of
Gen. Jackson’s course and entered warmly in .favor
of his re-election. He opposed S. D. Ingham, and
contributed as much as any other man in preventing
his carrying out his schemes to defeat the old hero.
Public meetings were called for that purpose, in
which Judge Lewis took an active part. In Septem
■ber, 1831, a democratic convention was held at the
Court House in this borough; Resolutions offered
by Judge Lewis were passed, strongly in favor of
Gen. Jackson, and repudiating the attempt to dis
tract the party; and also the following which we
copy entire.
“ Resolved , That the introduction of a female
into the arena of political and the attempt
to destroy without specific charges or evidence,
and for mere political purposes, an individual of
that sex whose weakness gives the strongest claims
upon a generous and gallant people for protection,
is as reprehensible now as it was in 1828, and is as
cruel and unmanly when the shafts are aimed at the
t( mechanic’sdaughter ” as when they were pointed
]at the wife of a brave and successful General.
“ That this convention will support no candidate
i for the Legislature who is not openly and decidedly
! in favor of the re-election of Andrew Jackson and
' George Wolf.”
Here the matter connected wilh the troubles at
1 Washington, and the attack of S. D. Ingham on
: the wife of Maj. Eaton, are distinctly referred to,
■and severely censured. It is well known in this
county, what part the “ deceased friend ” of S. D.
. Ingham took on this occasion ; as well known as
j was the opposite position of Judge Lewis.
I Mr. Ingham could not, in thinking of the friendly
j relation of one, but. think also of the unfriendly
! relation of the other. The reason he had to be
grateful to one, would be the occasion of indignity
to the other. In calling to mind these matters, we
have no object other than to explain the course of
Mr. Ingham, in pursuing Judge Lewis, with an ap
parent determination to hunt him down. The
Judge persevered in the way he had marked out,
until General Jackson was triumphantly re-elected;
which consigned S. D. Ingham to his political
grave.”
In further explanation of Mr. Ingham's motives
for his attack we state upon the authority of one
acquainted with the lacts, that the “ deceased
friend ”of Ingham held an office under the latter
in the Treasury Department, and held at the same
time, a large claim upon Mr. H. A. Krer, above
referred to, for the purchase money of the Bradford
Settler, an influential Democratic paper printed in
Bradford county. Judge Lewis, in order to relieve
that Press from all possible control ot the Ingham
influence, as soon as Mr. Ingham commenced war
upon Gen. Jackson, advanced, out of his own pocket,
the whole of the purchase money due by Mr. Kerr,
who did good service in the cause of Gen. Jackson
in opposition to the Ingham influence. In consid
eration of these services, as appears by the testi
mony of Mr. Kerr, taken before the Committee.
Judge Lewis was willing to assist him, by becoming
his security or otherwise, in purchasing an interest
in the Reporter establishment for which he was in
negotiation. This was freely spoken of at,.the
time, and the hint was sufficient to operate upon a
diseased imagination. -The/same malice, tinctured
with a speciesof insane delusion, which, upon being
dismissed from the Cabinet, induced him to charge
all the clerks and other officers of the War Depart
ment with an intention to waylay and murder him "
has probably produced this effort to distort an in.
nocent transaction iqto something improper. That
his statement receives no credit in any respectable
quarter is evident from the fact that, although it
was brought to the notice of the Senate upon the
confirmation of Judge Lewises President of this
District in January 1843, the Judge received every
vote in the Senate, including Whigs and Democrats,
except three —every Senator from the entire North,
where Judge Lewis was best known, and from Bucks
county , where Mr. Ingham was best known, voting
in favor of the confirmation,' and repudiating the
Ingham slander as entirely unworthy of credit.

Geo. Sanderson, Esq.— Dear Sir: As there
exists, at the present time, two County Committees,
and also two Committees for each Ward, Borough
and Township in the county, I would state that
I was appointed a member of the County Commit
tee selected by the County Convention, of Sep. 18
1850, and likewise by the Chairman of said Co.m
raittee, as one of the Committee for Leacock twp.
Both divisions cannot be right in the positions they
occupy, and as the Reading Harrisburg Conven
tions admitted the delegates elected under the call
of the County Committee appointed by the Conven
tion of April 10th, 1851,1 deem it my bounden duty
as a Democrat, to respectfully decline (through the
Intelligencer) serving on either, being of the opin
ion that if the said organization, or rather disoi
ganization, is continued in, it will prove injurious
to the interests arid destructive of the integrity
of the Democratic party.

Some lime since that paper had the audacity to

We were elected in the spring of .1850 to serve

ait the delegate election last spring, another Com

Whig Meeting inDriimore. |;
Mr. Editor':—On Saturday the 23d of August,
was the dajEset apart by. the different faction? of
Whiggery to elect delegates to their County Gon
vention—and a sorry time they had of it in Dro
more township. The Silver Greys and . Woolley
Heads assembled 7 in their .strength. • About jlO
o’clock the batteries were opened* and a jegulat fire
was keptiif> until 3, which was the appointed hour
to organize. .'‘ The Greys nominated J. M. Dever as
Judge of the election, and. at the same timet the
Woolies proposed John Long, Esq. ; Both Judges
took their seats—and both contended their right to
occupy the chair, and also alleging that the regu
lar time for opening the election had notarrived.—
Some bawled at the top of their voices and urged
them to proceed with the election, whilst others hs
vociferously objected, until the room became a per
fect bedlam. After a few minutes, they.again nom
inated both Chairmen .a second time, both took
their seats, and at it they went. In the confusion,
the Woollies had neglected to furnish themselves
with a supply of paperto note down the proceed
ings. However, an opportunity offered, and they
jerked the paper from the hands of the Silver Greys
—the latter retook it—and it was pulled about
from one to the other until it was completely de.
molished; The batteries then opened with terrible
effect. TheGreys seized hold of the table, sweating
it was theirs and they would have it—andthe
Woollies, not willing to submit, grabbed the table,
too, and such a pulling and hauling from one ] end
of the room to the other I never witnessed. Some
swearing they would turn the others out—their
: opponents taking off their coats to prepare for; .the
encounter, cursing and: swearing at a prodigious
rate. At length one of the party jumped upon the
table, and called for the landlord to preserve order.
The landlord arrived and offered them another room
and table—then the point to be obtained was ais to
which should remain in possession of what they
had. The Greys being most numerous, victory at
length rested on their banner, and the Woollies
withdrew; and formed a new organization—both
parties claiming to be the simon pures and both
electing delegates. Such disgraceful proceedings
in a Township meeting, and that, too, by men who
stand at the head of the Church, is beyond all de
cency, and I feel well satisfied that it will enure
largely to the benefit of Col. Bigler in ; i

Nearly Drowned. —A letter from Cape May,
under date of 25th ult., published in the Pbiladel
phia Ledger, mentions the narrow escape from
dropping of a party of sea bathers: j
Yesterday forenoon, at the customary hour, a
party from the U. S. Hotel, consisting of .Mr. Tomp
kins, the proprietor, his son, the lady of GenWa-
Harney of Mexican war celebrity, and Mrs.
Tiernan of Pittsburg, .went .'into the surf to enjoy
an ablution and its consequent blessings. By .thei
too great temerity of the ladies, whose backs hap
pened to be towards the ocean, the company sud
denly found themselves entirely out of their depths.
They had unexpectedly got off the bar into the
regular channel, for it was then low water. [The
eddying current soon commenced to finish what
had been begun. Once off their feet, the party soon
found themselves hurried-away from the shore.—
The son of Mr. Tompkins, succeeded in reaching a
place of safety; but Mr. Tompkins himself, with
Spartan firmness, determined to save the lives of the
ladies or to lose his own in the attempt. It being
Sunday, and near the end of the season, and more
over, the surf boats were not customary
positions. The men, however, were by their boats }
under the shed. Upon the first alarm being given
they pushed their boats off with alacrity.
They were soon joined by Mr. Chartres, who kfeeps
a Refectory on the Inland, and by a Spanish gentle
man" the United States Hotel. They
succeeded in reaching the party, and in rescuing
them from danger when not a moment was to be
lost. Mrs. Harney was under the water when they
reached the 6pot; and it is supposed that she would
, never have risen to the surface again, alive. When
takeß to the shore, the ladies were found to be
completely black, and all consciousness had depart
ed from them. By the timely administering of
emetics the ladies were relieved ot the water |hey
had swallowed. •
The Indiana Negro Law. —There are one or‘
. two curious and significant facts connected <vitli
the popular vote upon the extraordinary part of
the new Constitution of Indiana, prohibiting,; the
settling of free negroes in that State, which should
not be permitted to pass by unnoticed. The vote
of exclusion in New Castle county, which is looked
upon as a very hot-bed of Abolitionism, for exam
ple, had 1,100 majority. Ten years ago, says the
Courier, published there, “ or even three years ago,
such a proposition, instead of receiving 1,100 ma
jority, would have been voted down largely, but
the intolerant, ianatical, reckless, and dangerous
policy,of the Abolitionists—the professed friends
of the negro—have prejudiced the public mind
against that untortunate class of people, and the
result is an almost unanimous expression favor in
of exclusion.”

Dyspepsia can be C used.— Those persons who
are afflicted with this disease are prone to regard
their cases as hopeless; and in some' instances, as
in fever and ague, life seems to'them hardly desir
able. The debility, nervous depression, and hypo
chondria which* accompany the malady, render its
victims the most rnise -able of men. Dyspeptics,
however, may be cured effectually, by using a rem
edy sold in this city by Messrs. Reed, Bates, & Aus
tin, No. 26 Row. This remedy has
been puffed in the regular puffiing machines, like
some nostrums; but.wej happen to know that it is
the most valuable medicine ever offered to the pub
lic. It has to our certain knowledge, cured some
of the most obstinate cases; and no man or woman
should suffer the purgatory of dyspepsia, when they
can procure the Oxygenated Bittere. It is. one of
the few medicines which we have consented to
advertise. —:—
A fair trial of. the Oxygenated Bitters will satisfy
the most incredulous, that this medicine has no
equal in the known world for the relief and cure of
the indescriable symptoms of Dyspepsia.

Valuable Real Estate at Public
WILL be sold at public sale, on Friday the
26th day of September, 1851, atlo’clock
P. M. on the premises, all that Farm belonging to
the heirs of George Trimble, dec’d, situate in Silver
Spring township, Cumberland county, 1 mile north
of Bucher’s mill, on the public road leading from
Hogestown to Sterrett’s Gap, containing
206 ACRES AND SOME PERCHES,
of black slate land, of good quality and in a high
state of cultivation. About 170 acres of which are
cleared, arid the residue in thriving timber. The
M improvements on the east side of this
farm are a large double
BRIC.K HOUSE,
and well finished, a Bank Barn,
an Apple Orchard of grafted fruit, and all the .ne
cessary out-buildings. The west Bide contains a
Stone House and Stable, a good well in the base
ment, and a spring at the door, and an apple Or
h ard of common fruit.
c The mansion side of this tract is worthy the
notice of persons desirous of purchasing a beautifuj
country residence, as it would require but little
additional expense to render itsuch. This property
combines several advantages, not onlyTrom location
but from the nature of the soil, it being loose and
easily tilled. It contains about 25 acres of bottom
oj rather second bottom land, which is well adapted
to the growth of either grain or grass; thus giving
it the double advantage of a grain and stalk farm.
This bottom is in front of the improvements from
east to west, which renders it very suitable to
divide, throwing a handsome farm of 103 acres to
each side and nearly square.
Also, will be sold on the same day, 57 acres of
mountain Timber Land, with a snug improvement
on it, about two miles distant. If not sold it will
be rented on the same day.
