Straws Show, &c. We are credibly informed that Mr. C. M. John ston, of Drumore township, who was "chief cook and bottle washer” in the Disorganizers’ Convention last week, on his way. home from this City, offered .to bet one hundred dollars with a Democrat whom he met, that Col. Bigler would not receive as many votes for Governor as Mr. Longstreth did in 1848 j We are also, informed, upon undoubted authority, that Mr. Thomas Dean, one* of the Disorganizers’ delegates to the Reading Convention, stated to a gentleman a few days ago, in Philadelphia, that Col. Bigler would lose two thousand votes in Lancaster county ! and that together,” and it re quires no prophet to divine what the intention is on ' the part of the disorganizers. . We now repeat, what we have heretofore stated, that the Coders in the “work of disorganization in this county, are determined to CUT THE TICKET —their' professions in certain quarters, resolutions and speeches to the contrary, notwithstanding.

Tet they forget to -tell'the people‘that all this has been" done by a Democratic State Treasurer} a Democratic Board of Canal Commissioners, and a Democratic Legislature! They heglect to mention, also, that the Governor could not, even if he would, pay a dollar of the debt, unless he put his hand in his pocket and paid it out of his own funds—an act of liberality which nobody, who knows the man, would accuse him of perpetrating. But this is the way the Whig papers attempt to throw*dust in the eyes of the people, and cover up the moral and political enormities of his Excellency. They: are afraid to meet the issues that, are involved in; .this contest openly and fairly—hence they seek to; turn public sentiment in a wrong direction,' end that, too, by falsehood and misrepresentation;-If they could only get oyer their penchant for this'drind'of warfare, and act candidly and honorably, and with some regard to truth and fair dealing, the contest would lose much of its acrimony and ness—the leading questions could be argtied with .a view to enlightenment—and the people, after hearing both sides, could* then intelligently determine for which of the candidates they would. cast their votes. The "Whig leaders dread the truthi however. They know full well that if they were to depend on the truth they would have no possi ble chance ot success. Their principles are so odious to the American people, that, with them em blazoned on their banner, they could dot even make aVespectable opposition to the Democratic party. Hence their resort to the most contemptible mis representations and even falsehoods with regard to Jhe public debt—and hence, too, the clap-trap devi ces and shameless demagogueisna of William F. Johnston, who lends a willing hand in the disrepu* table business. , Tbe Convention. On Wednesday last, some fifty or sixty persons (some ot them self-constituted delegates and others manufactured here in Lancaster,) representing less than three hundred voters, all told, in the entire county, but pretending to represent the Democracy of twenty-nine of the forty-five districts, met in the upper room of ttie Court House, and nominated the following ticket, viz : For Senator —John Echternach, Adamstowri. Assembly —HenryM. Breneman, Elizabethtown; Wm.. Hays, Little Britain; W. R. Wilson, City; Dr. J/ M. Dunlap, Manheira Borough ; Martin NiEftL, Columbia. For Sheriff —Emanuel Shobeb, City. o For Prothonotary— Hamilton Ayres, Earl. For Register —Jacob R. Long, Mount Jojk. For Recorder —Samuel P. Bower, StrJrourg Bor. For Clerk of Orphans' Court —William E. Ram sey, Martic. Clerk of Quarter Sessions —Jeremiah Mohler, Ephrata. For Treasurer —John W. Jackson, City. For bounty Commissioner —Samuel Bucher. East Cocaiico. For Auditor— Andrew Dunlap, Lancaster twp. Directors of the Poor —John Mann, E. Hemp field ; John S. Morton, Bart. Fer Inspectors of Prison —George Wire, Co lumbia ; Jacob M. Kreider, West Hempfield; For Coroner —Samuel Hess, Fulton. They did one sensible thing, however, and that was to decide (by a vote of 15 to 14) not to ap point delegates to the 4th of March Convention— although that was clearly and distinctly specified in the call of Mr. Amwake, and was doubtless the principal object intended by the wire workers be hind the screen. In this they appear to have been foiled, and we presume that now the opponents Of Mr. Buchanan in this County will venture to try their strength when a regular call is issued by the County Committee. At all events we hope so, and, judging from present appearances, we think there will be but one sett of claimants from Lancaster to seats in the next State Convention. The so called County .Convention itself was a miserable abortion—a complete fizzle—and was proof conclusive to every unprejudiced mind that the reign of disorganization is Bear its end, and tha* the meagre assemblage is about the last expiring effort of disappointed and defeated faction. With regard to the ticket—there are some-good men on it, (whether with or without their consent we do not know,) who, it legitimately before the people as Democratic nominees, would command a strong and united party Bupport. As it is, however j we apprehend they will be looked upon by the Democracy of the in no other light than that of so man y volunteer candidates, to be voted for or not at the pleasure of each elector. ' When we once get to see the proceedings of the so called Convention in print,wo maypossibiy have something more to say- on the subject. For the present we will barely remark in conclusion, that, owing to the peculiar difficulties of the Whig party in this district, the Democrats had a fair chance to have elected one-of the Senators. That hope is entirely blasted by the action of the disorganizes. Galphinism! GEORGE W. CRAWFORD, Secretary of War under Gen. Taylor, illegally pocketed $90,000 of the people’s money for his services in the Galphin claim! How long would one of our Lancaster county farmers or mechanics haw to toil before he could earn such a va9t sum ? Something like fArce - hundred years , provided he. could so long live ! And this immense draft upon the public ( treasury was made through the knowledge and consent of William M. Meiiedith, one of the Whig candi dates for the Supreme Bench. But this is not all: TOM CORWIN, the present Whig Secretary of he Treasury, and acting President of the United States during Mr. Eillmores electioneering tour, coolly* pocketed sBo,oQfgpf the fraudulent Gardner claim recently trumped up against the Government! Tax payers, think of this. Laboring men, reflect npon these outrageous frauds pepetrated by the leading Whigs of the country. The history of this Nation furnishes no parallel to the shameful and infamous peculations of the. Galphins. And yet, the Whig leaders of Pennsylvania are asking you to endorse such conduct by voting lor William F. Johnston and the entire Whig ticket! Gov. Johnston and the Tariff. Gov. Johnston is preaching up the tariff ques tion wherever he goes, just as.if that issue was in volved in hieelection. The people of Pennsylvania, however, understand that he can exercise no more influence for good on this subject than the Sultan of Muscat. He has no' vote upon it. It does not come under his jurisdiction. His recommendations, ifhe should make.ahy?could be of no service. He has no power over that question; and he might as well whistle jigs to milestones, expecting them to dance, as to attempt to produce any effect upon this great national question. Congress has exclusive control of the tariff— Governors of States have nothing to do with it. If the people of Pennsylvania wish any modification of the tariff, will not call upon Gov. Johnston to help them; neither, will they call upon his abo lition friends to do so. But they will go to Con gress, and ask the body that has control on the subject- Our people kpow very well that the Whigs will be utterly powerless in the next Congress. Their Galphjnism and want of honor and honesty*—have placed them in such a miserable minority, that they will scarcely have a corporal’s guard in the next Congress. Thus far they have carried but six states; and we have no doubt the Democratic party will have a majority of fifty in the next House. In the • Senate the is nearly in the same proportion. The Democracy, therefore, will have entire control of the tariff; and if any good is to. be effected by a change, it is to be done through our party, and not by Gov. Johnston, and the agitators that support him. These men would unsettle every great question in the country to carry out their own infamous schemes, and se cure power to themselves.— Dem, Union.'

Tariff or taxes which sop port the Government of- the United States are assessed on theyalueof theforeign goods imported into the country, and are collected by Collectors at Philadelphia, New York,Baltimore and other ports of entry. For. example—-when a vessel brings a cargo of iron, or of cotton dr woollen goods, or any otherarticles to Philadelphia, the owner of thepe j goods'dare not land them, until to the Treasury of the United States thirty dollars of twenty-five dollars, as the case may be, on every one hundred dollars of the value of his cargo.— This, of course, raises the price of the article to the man who buys it from the merchant, thirty or twenty-five per cent., and in this way the purchaser pays his tax to the Government. This is called an indirect tax, because the buyer pays it to the merch ant in the increased price of the article,-and not directly to the Tax Collector. The importing merchant pays the tax, in the first instance, to the Collector of the Port, and then he charges it to his customers on the price of the goods. This tax to the Government of the United States is a heavy tax on the people of Pennsylvania.*' It is more than double what they pay to their State Government, and is estimated to amount to not less than five millions of dollars per annum. This tax differs, in another respect, from our State taxes. If a man pays his State tax to the Collector and takes his receipt for it, the matter is ended. Not so with this tax to the General Gov ernment The Farmer may say, I will not buy any foreign goods and thus I will get clear of the' tax. But he cannot escape the charge in.any way; because .if he buys, for example, one hundred weight of home made iron, the price of the article is increased to an amount equal to the thirty per cent, tax which the-foreign iron is compelled to Pl- under the existing Tariff or Tax Law, foreign iron pays a tax of thirty dollars on every hundred dollars, and foreign cotton and woollen goods pay a tax of twenty-five dollars on every hundred dollars worth imported into the Country; and the enormous sum of about fifty millions of dollars of taxes are raised every year from the people of .the United States to.support the Federal Government—and yet the Whigs call this a free trade tariff! If, instead of employing the French word, they were to call it a free trade tax of fifty millions of dollars, this would be simply ridiculous. The truth is, this is as high, if not a higher tax upon imports than that paid by any other commercial nation in the world. The Democratic party do not complain of this tax —because it is necessary for the support of the General Government, and they are gratified that this high Revenue Tariff affords so large an in cidental protection to,our domestic manufactures. They cherished this great interest in its infancy, and sustained it until it is now able to sustain itself prosperously with the aid.of the high revenue tax law of 1846. Our domestic manufactures are now placed upon a permanent footing; this high revenue tax must ever continue, as ii is the only practicable means of supporting the Government of the Union. Should more revenue be required for the support of the Government (which is not at all improbable) than the present Tariff then the Democratic party is willing to increase the tax on the importation of foreign jiron and for eign coal, two of the great interests of Pennsylva nia—and this because~Mr. Walker, our late able Democratic Secretary.of the Treasury, has advan. ced the opinion that an increased duty of ten per cent on foreign iron and coal would considerably increase the revenue. This is the position of the Democratic party.— N.ow what is that of the Whigs 7 They say that the farmer and mechanic do not nowf pay a suffi ciently high price for their iron and their woollen and cotton goods, to the manufacturer—and that this price must be increased, otherwise the manu facturers ‘must be ruined ; and this they say not withstanding their and our unexampled prosperity! \ybat is the remedy they propose, to increase the pCji.fce of our domestic articles to the consumer 7 It is what they call a Protective Tariff—that is ? an'increase of the taxes on foreign goods imported from twenty-five and thirty dollars in the hundred to fifty and sixty dollars in the hundred, and thus increase the price of our domestic manufactures to the farmer and mechanic in the same ratio. This increase of taxes is not required by the Treasury- The object is solely to protect our iron, cotton and wool len manufacturers, by raising the price of these articles. ■|But does not every person see the consequences of such a protective tariff, especially to the farmer? Its object and effect are to compel the people to buy all their goods from our own domestic manu* facturers, by raising the tax so high on the.impor tation of foreign goods as to prevent such articles from being imported at all. And what, then, would be the consequence ? Would our farmers have any market in foreign countries for their wheat, flour, corn and other agricultural productions? During the year ending on the 30th of June, 1849, the last for wfiich we have the official documents at hand, there was exported to foreign nations,chiefly to the British Dominions, 2,105,013 barrels of flour, 13,257,309 bushels ot corn, 405,109 barrels of Corn meal. During the first five months of the present year, there was exported to Great Btitain alone more than 1,000,000 barrels of flour, and nearly 1,000,000 bushels of wheat. Suppose this market, were stopped, it would do immense injury to the farmers. But nations, like individuals, can. not buy all and sell nothing; and if we should not purchase foreign goods from Great Britain, they cannot buy wheafand flour and corn from us. They will buy their wheat and flour from the countries on the Baltic and the Black Sea, who will take pay for them in articles which the people of Great Britain have to sell. The object of a Whig pro. tective tariff is to compel our people to buy alto gether from our home manufacturers—and the necessary effect of this would be, not only greatly to raise the price of every article, but to cut off every foreign market from our farmers for their productions. jWe have extended this article to too great a length, and shall reserve, the proof that the present Whig administration of the National Government insincere in the support of the iron interest of Pennsylvania,-and wish merely to keep them in a state of excitement for the purpose of manufactur ing political capital against the Democrats.

Friesd Sasusrsoit: —The rnurderof Edward Goreuch, Esg., by the negroes andjwhite abolition ist of-'Lancaster county, has filled the public mind in this community with but one feeling,*and : that a feeling of indignation, commensurate with the. atrocity-of the murder. The following particulars of the case were furnished me? by. a.gentlemen who. .was present at' the murder, anil; who* received a' wound. himßelf upon the head from! one of the rebellous negroes, just as Mr. Gorsuch felt. Mr. G. was in pursuit of two or three runaway oegroes, accompanied by bis sou, bis nepbew; two cousins, and the Deputy Marshall and a police officer, in all seven persons. .Very early in the morning, this party approached a shanty in which was supposed to be secreted the runaways, and sooft perceived a negro running ahead of them' whom Mr. Gorsuch recognized as his boy. They tried to intercept his' reaching the house, but the negro succeeded in getting iu and ascended to the loft, interposing a barrier between himself and the pursuing party. Baffied thus in accomplishing their object, the party came out to reconoitre the premi ses,.and as Mr. G. was passing by an exposed place, a negro from the shanty fired at him, but without effecC The negroes .now commenced blowing .horns, keeping the party at abeyance.at the.same time. The neighborhood soon became alarmed and in the space of three quarters of an hour, two hundred negroes had assembled,! most of whom were armed with guns, and many of them came ori'horse back. At this critical juncture, a white rpan was perceived among the negroes, encourag ing them on to resistance. The Marshall instantly read his warrant tb the white man, and ordered hior to assist in preserving the peace, and in execut ing the law of the country. This he refused to do, and told the Marshall that■ “ no arrest should or could be made there without spilling blood,” at whicbi’the negroes cheered and yelled like furies.. The marshall then declared his determination to' hold the white man responsible; for the value of the slaves, and ordered the party to retire, which they were doing, when Mr. Garsuch, who had hitherto been surrounded by the negroes, turned round and said that be would have his boys, before he left the neighborhood; upon declaring which he received a blow on the posterior portion of the head from some sharp instrument supposed to be a scythe, by a negro. This blow knocked him forward, and as He was falling, another negro discharged a gun, containing shot and slug into the superior portion of the right lung producing instant death.! When Mr. Gorsuch fell, his son rushed forward to the body of his father, and discharged his revolver among the party of murderers, but with what effect is not known. He received several shot himself and would have been dispatched, but the negroes took alarm at their bloody work and: dispersed, yelling like demons incarnate. The young man s life is in a very critical situation. Mr. Gorsuch was a class leader in the M.E. Church—about sixty-three years of age; and en joyed universal esteem as a neighbor, citizen Christian. He lived near Muncton, Baltimore co., Md., an'd is reputed to be quite wealthy. His body was taken through this place, this morning, en route for his formed residence, and was visited by large numbers of our citizens. He was a horribly murdered man, and a tearful retribution hangs over the heads of his murderers. P. S.—About 50 of our citizens are now, 10 o'clock at night, waiting to start down in the cars, in company with some Marylanders, to make ar rests. Wo to them who resist ! Columbia, September 12, 1851. Simultaneously with the intelligence of the Ne gro Riot at Christiana, and the murder of the owner of the fugitive slaves, it was announced that Gov. Johnston had arrived at Philadelphia, on anolher electioneering tour, and intended to remain for several days, perhaps weeks, in the eastern portion of the State. Thus, for months at a stretch does this Abolition Whig Governor absent himself from the seat of government—and riots and bloodshed may accrue in consequence of the Abolition senti ments he advances, and yet there is, practically, no' Chief Magistrate at Harrisburg to take cognizance of the outrages against the peace and dignity of the Commonwealth! Truly, we have fallen on evil times, when a citizen of an adjoining State, in the lawful pursuit of his property, may be murdered in our midst, and the Executive of the Commonwealth 'to whose policy may be traced the outrage) roam- Ing about in quest of votes, instead of being at his post to enforce the utmost rigor of the law against the white and black murderers! Gov. Johnston should have been at the seat of government, where the Constitution intends he should be at all times, and at once have offered a liberal reward for the apprehension of the guilty parties, even had it operated with severity against some of his Abolition friends who instigated the riot and, perhaps, assis ted in perpetrating the murder. As it is—for any thing Johnston has done—the murderers are still running at large, ready again to shoot dawn or cut the throat of the next master that may come along on the hunt of his slaves. Can fuch a state ; of things be longer tolerated by our law abiding, law loving people? The second Tuesday of October will answer the question through the. medium of box. [D* Since the above was iri type, w*e are gratified to learn that two white men, named Casper Han way and Elijah. Lewis, and nine negroes have bfeen arrested, as accessories, and are now in our prison awaiting their trial for murder. The slave who, it is supposed, killed his master, has not been,ar rested. Too much praise cannot be awarded to the Deputy Prosecuting Attorney of this county, John L. Thompson, Esq., and Alderman J. Franklin Reigart, of this city, who promptly repaired to the scene of bloodshed on Friday morning and suc ceeded, with the aid of a number of the citizens in that neighborhood and the hands on 'the public works of the State, in ferreting out and arresting the guilty ones, and having them brought here and imprisoned on the same day. The following facts, taken from the deposition of H. H. Kline, Esq., Deputy Marshal, who was with Mr Gorsuch at the time of his death, will ex plain the whole transaction in a satisfactory man ner to our'readers: Mr. K. in his that they got to the house at which the slaves were secreted about day light on Thursday morning. As they approached it they were discovered by a colored man who gave the alarm. The blacks were up stairs. He (K.) went to the stairway door and told the man who •occupied the house that he wanted him to come down so that he might talk to him about, the two slaves secreted there. He heard them loading their guns up stairs. Mr. Gorsuch then came to the door and called the slaves by name. He told them that he would take them along, treat them kindly, and forgive them all. He then went out of the house, looked up to the window and called them. They then fired at him, but did not hit him. He then fired his revolver at them. He (K.)had read his war rant aloud to them before they fired. He gave them -ten minutes to consider—during which time a white man came riding up, named Castner Hanway. .He called upon him to assist in the name of the United States. Hanway replied he would not, and did not care for afiy act of Congress. By that time, another white man, named Elijah Lewis, came up, and de manded his authority. He showed it to him, and he then turned round and told the negroes they had a right to defend, themselves. About this timejspine 15 or 20 negroes, armed with guns, came up in the same direction the white men came. They came with their guns pointed, at him and ready cocked.— He begged the whife men.tokeepthem from firing, and said he^would,withdraw his menand leavethe negroes go. Hanway said the negroes had a right to defend theiriselves and he would jiotiriteVfere. — About this* time another gang ot negroes came on the gTOufid armed with guns and clubs. Hanway rode towards them and said something. Our men then run, and tbenegroesTcommenced fimg on them. He had left Mr. Gorsuch at the house coaxing the slaves to go with ; h'im. * The negroes .fired on-the old roan? and he fell, but cannot.tell whether it was a shot from the window or from the gang' outside -that killed him. The son ran to his assistance.— Joshua Gorsuch, Dr. Pierce and Dickerson Gorsuch were all wounded—the latter dangerously.' He is now lying very low. The party then retreated to Peniogtonville. On the evening of Friday, the Philadelphia au thorities arrived-, on the ground, and, during Satur day'some eighteen or twenty more blacks and one white man were arrested; five of whom are now in our prison, and the rest taken to Philadelphia to be tried there the U.

The Hydras, Monsters and Chimeras dire; which have pursued them while in their wa king moments, and peopled the regions of fancy in their dreams, have ;at length resolved themselves into a ‘ Club,” which was born into the world on the memorable night of Wednesday, Sept. 3d, 1851, amid the flourish of trumpets—the ringing of bells, and sundry gaseous demonstrations indigenous to Baucombe and Whiggerv. In the presence of thirteen devoted followers of its supposed daddy, the light of night first dawned upon the child’s coun tenance, when it was discovered and pronounced to tfe “ a icee nager (an infant African I-suppose.)— This unexpected developement, plunged a portion of the.spectators into a most violent paroxysm of grief, among whom was an honest Hibernian, whose lamentations were as loud as Jeremiah’s of old. . Ah ! ye divil’s bird ! bad luck to yee's, ye nager of night! may the bloody Bunsheetakehoold av ye and greet ye kindly! Bad cess to the fatshare ye hav like a Christian, at all;at all! Luck at its nose, it's bigger ner Pat Murphey’s gintale pig l and its/ut .(foot) murther,rougher ! I’m kilt entirely!—its the divil-himself, farnint me! These ejaculations and interjections of our Hi bernian friend, augmented the inconsolable grief of the company, which would have terminated in the destruction of the child, but for the opportune in terposition of a good hearted German,, suggesting that the “nigger babish , be vite-vash'd mil lime." — This suggestion was received with favor, and they all stood round the infant’s couch contemplating its repulsive appearance, with any thing else than feel ings of satisfaction. Its head was covered with a luxuriant growth of tilclck wool., slightly interspersed with Silver. Grey —its complexion is a pale black , somewhat green, but rather gan-greenish, denoting speedy dissolution—its features are purely Congo or African, excepting the eyes (strasbismatic) arid the nose, the former being large and goggly, and the latter that peculiar nose found on criminals so' graphically described by the historian Tiddle—its arms and hands are bony and long, with fingers of immense longitude—one of its feet was clovenisk, but the other was perfectly symmetrical, excepting that part which projected into week, cal led a heel if you please. From this singular combination of features, the party present at its natal hour, could >not judge of its paternity, so they called it “ Johnsing,” after a vagrant Governor, who is now roaming, over the Commonwealth, until they can find some persoft to own up that it is his. The child was to have been christened, on Saturday night, but I have learned that there was not a sufficient number of God fathers present to assume the responsibility of its future career in life, so the ceremony, has been de ferred until next Thursday, when it is; expected that Gen. of Lancaster will either acknowl edge himself its daddy, or give some information that will lead to such a discovery. Were I per mitted to judge of its paternity, I should very much doubt the integrity of its mother; as. that white and black wocjl—big nose or snout —big fingers— pale black or grem complexion, dendte unerringly a plurality of fathers —the worst of men. But the General is a good natured kind of a man, and doubtless is ambitious to become father to this streaked offspring; so he can put oh the coronet of horns , but they would grace the brow of Thaddeus and his Lady with more legitimate regality than any SILVER GREY For the .Intelligencer. Frazer meeting in Columbia. Mn. Sanderson:— I The friends of Col. Frazer -who are attempting to break down the regular or ,ganization of the .Democratic Party in Lancaster bounty,'held a meeting in this place on Saturday night last, for the purpose of electing delegates- to represent l/iem } not the Democracy of Columbia, in a County Convention to be held in Lancaster on next Wednesday. The meeting was very slimly attended, and if the Commonwealth hands, and those in the employ of the Commonwealth, who were there not by their own free will, had been withdrawn,* the number present would not have exceeded four persons. But as it was, there were eighteen persons at this meeting, six of whom know' nothing about our affairs politically—one of whom has, declared his intention to support the Native American ticket this fall—and others, who aver they will not support ;the nominations made by the Reading and Harrisburg Conventions. How far these people represent the Democracy of this Borough, you are at liberty to judge; but the three hundred Democrats of this town will no more con sent to endorse the action of their Convention, than to endorse the action of the Whig Convention re cently held in your city. That this meeting was'viewed by our Demo* cratic citizens as disorganizing in its character, is amply, evidenced from the. fact, that two hundred Democrats assembled outside : the Hall while it was in session, refusing to participate in their pro ceedings, though strongly urged to do so. The Amwake call has no more authority with the De mocracy of Columbia than the chairman of the Whig County Committee; While these persons were in the'HalK’the out-side Democrats, many of whom had. come under the impression that there was to be a democratic* meeting, called upon our fellow townsman," Dr. N. B. Wolfe, for an address, towhich call the Dr. responded, unveiling the hypoc risy and double dealings of the disorganize!* in such a manner as to render equivocation useless.— He spoke of the necessity of a united democracy in the approaching contest—the vital principles,at j ssue —the harmony of the whole Confederacy de pending upon our conduct; and animadverted strongly upon the conduct of those who were at this moment engaged in giving “aid and comfort to the enemy ” by raising local and false issues merely to gratify the disappointed and malevolent spirits of some designing and aspiring political demagogues pf this county : He spoke of the treachery of those, men to the interests of the Com monwealth, and their infidelity to the Democratic party, as, deserving of the greatest censure; after which, the Democratic ticket claimed his attention and admiration.. Dr. Wolfe was frequently interrupted., with en thusiastic applause during the delivery: of. his speech, and at the conclusion, there was a shou went up for the ticket—the whole ticket and noth ing but the ticket, that sent dismay and terror into the hearts of a few Whigs assembled at the corner. The ladies, God bless them, endorsed the meet ing by their presence and the.waiving of handker chiefs Irobi the opposite side of the street. ■ All in all, the meeting was creditable to all present. Columbia, Sept. 6,1856. 4 : For tbe Intelligencer. ' Washington, Sept. 8,1851. Mr. Sanderson:—Dear Sir: Being on£of the com mittee, I thought it niy duty .to give some informa tion in regard tothe manner the Frazer delegates were sent from qur Borough.

Mb. some business in one of the Southern -Saturday, Sept. 6tb, I concluded to make tpj yny by the of Leesburg, where, as I bad upderstood; there was to he another great ala MiUerstown. I came there about the hour, of 3, and I must seri oUsly say-that l never was so touch disappointed in the a political meeting in my life; Every person knows well, who is at all acquainted in that portion of the that- it is, or has ever been one of the indomatahle strongholds of Whig! gery. I went there with the expectation of seeing assembled hundreds by hundreds, hot, lo! what a falling off from that estimate when my eyes fell upon the motley crowd. Now, Mr. Editor, I do nof wish to misrepresent the matter in any sense be lieving as I do, that honesty and truth are com mendable in every person, therefore I shall give you information to be relied upon. The crowd (if it can be.so was one of the most meagre looking I ever beheld, being com posed of such who do not attend political meetings to hear principles elucidated, or even for the sake of party attachment, but who attend almost exclus ively, as the phrase goes, “to see and have some fun!” The positive number as near as I can tell was, 43 Whigs, 12 Democrats, and 27 boys. That is the number which constituted the great Mass meeting of the strong Whig townships of Strasburg, Lampeters, Conestoga, Martic, etc. Truly the prospects of Wbiggery do look seriously blue in that portion of the county. The Eleven faithful of the Forty-three present were addressed by 1). W. Patterson, in commencement, but it was a poor go. I say the Eleven faithful because the other thirty two had their whols attention taken .up by ‘ Henry,' who had a ‘snake iri his hat,’ and was continually repeating.the inquiry, tragically, ‘h ho struck ineV whicMwas so.amusing to the thirty-two , that wher ever ‘Henry’ was, either in the Bar-room or the street, they were also. But at length king Alcohol gained supremacy, and the tragedian '■Henry the Ist' was conducted to the hay-loft—the thirty-two not relishing the Whig gasometers then embarked in the Watermellon business. B. Herr, followed Patterson. The only spirit as yet manifested was done by three of the faithful who were constantly endeavoring to get up a clapping, but of no avail. I admired the patriotic assiduity of ray three friends. The re marks of Patterson and Herr were very lame and scarcely worthy of notice. Ellmaker next took the stand, and wished to know the first act that Bill Johnston ever did that was not virtually right, and in favor of the Compromese Measures and the Union ! “ Pocketing that bill for the repeal of that of the Anti kidnapping law !" —and his free-soil and abolition speeches in the Northern and Western poitions ot the State. Oh, Bah ! he might as well tell intelli gent persons that the sunjs green, as that Governor Jobnston is in favor of (the Compromise and the Constitution. By acts the people are enabled to judge. But notwithstanding nil his praise of John ston, Mr. Ellmaker could not refrain (being a Sil ver grey,) from giving thje Governor several pretty severe digs neath the fifth rib, concerning some of bis acts, of which Ellmaker said he did not approve. When Ellmaker remarked that Clover's, stomach held a pint of catnip tea, some one at our elbow re marked that Gov. Johnston's must be larger, as it held a quart of the best Old Cogniac Brandy. Ell maker’s speech was muck perplexed, and consisted of the vilest misrepresentations I ever listened to. John Strohm followed, but spoke only a short time and took his seat, being no doubt uneasy that some of his neighbors might wish to know what “ Hon esty' ’ there was in “ casting lo starve Amer ICAN SOLDIERT UPON A FOREIGN SOIL !” A Mr. Hank next followed. Oh, shades of Demosthenes and Cicero!—his declamation was as palatable, his voice as musical as the grating of a saw over a spike! His speech consisted of an Anecdote, but when related no one laughed but himself! poor fel low. P. H. Gochnauer next followed, forcibly re minding us of Hamlet's Ghost. once more rose and commenced addressing the chairman, but lo! the worthy functionary was gone—then turn ing to the crowd he informed them that the Whigs of old Kentuck had lost their Governor, and that the Whigs of Pennsylvania mfght share the same fate. A very truthful and sensible remark of Mr. Patterson. For the lnteltlpocer. ** Thus ended the meeting, but long ere the speak ers were half through the President and other offi cers were all gone—the stand being vacant,’save the speaker. The eleven:faithful merit praise for sticking to their] post like leeches. I heard one prominent Whig remark that he was “really ashamed of the meeting. 3 ’ Another, who was one of the speakers, that |was the most lame and spiritless affairs of the kind he ever witnessed.” I understand that the meetings at Vogansville and the Lamb Tavern were also perfect failures. It is very evident that Johnston’s Abolitionism will not take with the people of Lancaster county. A word, in conclusion, about Moderator and his two ponies who attacked me 60 furiously a few weeks ago in the Examiner about my Inklings of the Miliers town meeting. I know him well, and also know the instigators of the article. Our portly friend, whose sole occupation consists in “ dealing things out by the. small” and the manwith the “cane and ribbonlesss hat” who came all the way from New York to re-invent an “old washing machine” that had been invented and kicked out of use fifty years ago. To our friend Moderator, who is an erithusi astic'Whig, but also a great admirer of the Hon. Janes Buchanan, and by the way he has expressed himself will no doubt vote for Mm should he be settled as the next candidate for the Presidency, to him we would say, he had better attend to the con veyance of Tobacco plants or droving cattle, or else we might—but no matter. We do not wonder much at his enthusiasm in the Whig cause, as it is understood that he is to have some of the “loaves and fishes” two years hence, by way of a'-seat in the Legislature. Concerning the charges laid against me for denouncing Dunn English s speech etc, they are Jo entirely void of truth, that I cousider them unworthy of further notice. For the Intelligencer. Rock Springs, Fulton Twp, ) September 9, 1851. ) Mr. Editor :—As it has become so fashionable for every Village in the county, no matter how large or small, (so that it contains a grog shop, two dogs and a tom cat,) to boast of its corres pondent, whereby its sayings and doings are pro claimed to the public through the medium of some newspaper—and seeing none from this place, which I think to its scribbler, I have concluded to scratch you a few lines on the general topics of the day. Being in no way experienced in writing for the public, you cannot expect your humble correspondent (if I may be allowed to use the term,) to communicate his thoughts fn language either sublime or'eloquent; but being a plain man; I will clothe my ideas in as humble a garb as possible. As there is nothing astir in this village worth noticing, except politics, which are now raging among the whigs, equally as high as the California fever did some few years ago, I must give you a dish of that kind. But amid all the confusion and party squabblirigs of the Whigs the small “rickety, rotten, tottering remains ol Democ racy,as a correspondent of the National Whig of your city so eloquently expresses himself, stands as firm and unwavering as they did in the days of yore. Well, now, I think there is some 'pumpkins about this clod-hopper of a correspond St. When the true lovers of law and order in every part of this great union of States mourn over the nomination of Johnston, and would hail his election as an omen of ruin. This high-minded,.intellectual, patriotic correspondent, who feels so much interest for the safety of his country, rejoices over the nomination of such a base and unprincipled politician as John ston, who would, to ensure his own election, plunge his country in ruin, and yet seeks to blind the peo ple to think-there i is no danger to the Union. But there is danger, and well does Governor Johnston know that by not driving back the surges of abol itionism,, they would continue to roll onward until they would sweep this glorious Union from off the face of the earth. Such would be the pride of men like Johnston and Strohm, so that they might raise to power and wealth in its down-fall. But this will not be the case, for the sturdy yeomanry of the Keystone of the Federal Arch will, on the '2nd Tuesday of October, send forth such a thundering rebuke of their abhorrence that will forever silence such political demagogues as Johnston and Strohm. This should be the reward of all such ‘-honesty” as John Strohm of Lancaster county has been practicing, Alas! for such honesty. We have had several instances of the honesty of John Strohm. One in particular, of which thfe 'gallant sons of Pennsylvania who fought and bled on the burning sands of Mexico, battling for the honor and to maintain the rights of our common country, will answer to his perfect satisfaction. And to all true lovers of their country’s honor, I say away with all such “ honesty.” Our country has too-long been cursed with such false pretensions. And now, candid reader* how refreshing to every honest and virtuous mind to compare the political career of William Bigler, the Susquehanna Raftsman, with that of his opponent, whose whole political career has been one series of darkness and intrigues, while that of honest Bill’s (and well he-deserves tbe title,) has been free, open and. candid, devoted to the best interest of his constituents and his country at large. ' Well may the De.r ocracy of the Keystone State be proud of their noble standard-bearer. HU election is just as certain as the 2d Tuesday in October rolls around, and the overwhelming ma jority that the. honest sons of Pennsylvania will give honest Bill? will send such a thrill of joy throughout this broad Union, that the National heart will beat with redoubled energy. A DEMOCRAT. The Young Democracy Moving! WE COMIS WE COME TO CONQUER!! Quite a large and enthusiastic meeting of Demo cratic Union Club was held on: Saturday evening ■ the 13th inst., at the public house of Mr. Samuel Whitehill, in the Borough Columbia. At the usual time, the President called the meeting to order, and Samuel F. Lockhart was appointed Sec- ' retary. The chair then stated the object for which tho meeting was assembled, and was followed by Dr. N. B. Wolfe, who spoke at length of the ne cessity of a radical, thorough and efficient organi zation of the party at the approaching election; incidentally alluding to the principles and the con sequences involved in the issue now before the people. The meeting then went into the appoint ment of a committee of vigilance for the Borough, consisting of 24 persons whose business it shall be to have delinquents assessed, &c., &c., —also ano ther committee of 25, who shall confer with the Borough committee, and make arrangements for holding a mast meeting in this place. After the business of the Club had been gone through with, and the roll, signed by several new members, tho following preamble and resolutions were offered by D». N. B. Wolfe, prefaced with some pertinent remarks, and were unanimously adopted : Whereas, Those indignant philanthropists, better known as fanatical abolitionists t who have advised opon resistance to the execution of that law which gives authority to reclaim fugitives from labor who may have escaped from one State into another: And whereas, such, counsel has had the effect of causing large numbers of desperate negroes (runa ways and others) to arm themselves with the intent of resisting forcibly of the law, even to the destruction of life and property ; and whereas, stich resistance or rebellion has been chiefly instru mental in producing the horrid murder of Edward Gorsuch, Esq., in this county; therefore be it Resolved, That we deeply deploreftbe disgraceful and inhuman murder of Edward Gorsuch, Esq., by a band of desperate negroes in this county, whoso passions were excited and inflamed by the aid, comfort and zeal of murderrfus abolitionists ; and that we view the instigators of this murder, no less eriminai than the negroes themselves, whose reeking hands are still smoking with the warm life's blood of a fellow citizen. Resolved, That we pledge ourselves as members of the Democratic party, and as citizens' of the United States to unite our efforts in enforcing in Lancaster county the faithful execution of all laws of the country, and particularly that law known as the ct Fugilive Slave Law.” Resolved, That we deprecate the abolition conduct of Gov. Wm. K. Johnston, in refusing to sign the' act, tepealitig the act of 1847, which now disgraces our statute laws, and of his undisguised hostility to the Reclaiming law of the last Congress, and that , we will use all honorable means to defeat this trai tor to the integrity of Pennsylvania, by electing Col. ' Bigler, who will 'aupport, sustain and defend the - ’ honor and constitution of our good old com monwealth. Resolved, That as Pennsylvanians, no sectional feeling or territorial distinction can ever alienate our affections from the great family of American citizens; and that, for the maintainance of that family as one whole and indivisible, wo pledge our lives, fortunes and our sacred honors, now and henceforth. Resolved , That we will petition the next Legis lature of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and use all diligence to have a law enacted which will exclude all negroes, “ bond and free,*’ from making settlements in this State in future, believing that such a measure would promote the harmony of our people and redound to the‘interests of the working classes. Resolved, That in Col. William Bigler, the Dem ocratic candidate for Governor, we recognise the elements of a stern and lofty patriot, with'an ele vation of aim and disinterestedness of soul, worthy of the character of the standard bearer of the De mocracy in the approaching contest. In him‘we And a devoted friend to the Constitution and the laws—a profound and enlightened legislator—a gentleman and citizen of irreproachable private character; and just such a man as will, by contrast, reflect the character of Governor Johnston in all its native ugliness. ; Resolved, That we are grateful to our fellow citizens who composed the Democratic Convention at Reading, for presenting Geri. Seth Clover, (so “common” a man,) as our candidate for Canal Commissioner,! as the Whig party of 1851, will have to “stoop” much lowerto “conquer” “ little Seth” than they did in 1840 to conquer “little Van.” Resolved, That the Democratic Judicial ticket, composed of Jeremiah S. Black, James Campbell, Ellis Lewis; John B. Gibson and Walter Lowrie, posses in our estimation “as much learning, as much ability, as much legal erudition, and as much character as can be found in any other five citizens of the Commonwealth,” in consideration of which we pledge them a hearty and enthusiastic support. Democratic Meeting in Sadsbury Township. At \ Democratic meeting held at the public house of John Roland, in Sadsbury township, on the Oth of September inst., on'motion Gopher appointed Chair 1 * man, And Jacob R. Townsend Secretary. The following preamble and resolutions were then read and adopted,, viz : Whereas , IT is the duty of all who call them* selvesMnembers of the good old Democratic party, to "watch and guard the interests of the same—to discountenance any attempt to injure or distract it, and Whereas , There is at this time a small faction in this county, which have left no means untried to disturb the good feeling heretofore existing in every member of the party. We, tbe Democrats of Sadsbury township, have looked on with aston sbiment at the attempt to disorganize it on the eve of a great political contest, a contest which all lovers of our free institutions are awaiting with the greatest anxiety—Therelore, be it Rtsolved , That we recognize the will of the ma jority to govern in all Democratic assemblies, wards and districts, and the minority not yielding and submitting to the majority alter.it is fairly ob tained and fully expressed, are traitors to the Dem ocratic creed. . WHISTLING JACK Resolved, That’ the address published by the County Committee on the 27th ult. has our hearty approval—that the reasons there assigned for not settling a County ticket—or a County Convention, should convince every true and honest Democrat, that they-understand and have the true interest of the Democratic party at heart. Resolved , That the County Committee recognized by the Reading ajid Harrisburg Conventions, is the true and legal Committee, and; their acts prove them to be men of ability, sound Democracy, and are always ready and willing to do their duty. Resolved , That we know’ of no other County Committee than the one sustained by the two State Conventions, and since recognized by the State Central Committee—any other body or bodies cal ling themselves County Committees and acting in such capacity, cannot be considered less than in cendiaries in the Democratic Party. Resolved , That we deeply regret that any portion of our Democratic fellow citizens, should be led astray from the path of political rectitude by a Committee Which has been ;pronounced spurious and illegal by two regular Strite Conventions of the whole Democracy of^Pennsylvania. Resolved , That il any-Democrat will so far forget the true interests of his party, asuto lend his aid, to encourage or assist disorganization, or promote the nefarious and unhallowed scheme of introducing a factional County Ticket into the present important contest, to endeavor to show the popularity of any man or set of men, however good they may be, at the expense of injuring our'State ticket, contrary to a resolution adopted by our County Committee, and attempt to palm it off as the regular Demo cratic Ticket, to create broils and party strife on the Election ground, whereby ■ tbe success •of ou party may be no stronger evir deuce of his secret andWfteadly hostility tq our Democratic -State Ticket—their/.nssertionsto- the contrary, notwithstanding. Resolved , That these proceedings be published. ID" Edwin Forrest made his first appearance in New York last evening, after two years absence from the stage. ,* the following certificate'from Hon. H.
