DEMOCRATIC HEAD-QUARTERS The Democratic [lead Quarters on the night of the election will be at DITLOW'S HOTEL, East King street. THE FIRE BURNS BRIGHTLY The Democratic meetings held throughout the county are largely attended, an'dthe right spirit is abroad amongst the people. The meeting at Safe Harbor, on Monday evening, was addressed by JAMES M. HoPKINs, Esq., the Democratic candidate for Congress, and by JOHN KOLP, Esq. The meeting at Columbia, on Tuesday eve ning, was an overwhelming demonstration of the "bone and sinew" of the Borough. The speakers were JAMES M. HOPKINS, Esq., Capt. GEO. SANDERSON, CHARLES P. MUHLENBERG, and Mr. KOON, (the latter in German,) all of whom were repeatedly and enthusiastically cheered. Dr. HALDEmAN- presided. On Wednesday evening a large and enthu siastic meeting was held at Marietta—Jot:lN W. CLARK, Esq., presiding. The meeting was ably and eloquently addressed by JAMES M. HoPKINs, SAMUEL. 11. REYNOLDS, Esq., and by Dr. KLINE. A very large and enthusiastic meeting of the Democracy of this city was held at Wit liiager's Hotel. South Queen street, and Sny der's, East King street, on Wednesday eve ning. The speakers were GEO. W. MCELROY, SIMON P. EBY, F. S. PYFER and ABRAHAM SHANK, Esqrs. Another equally large meeting was held on Thursday evening, at Barnett's North American Hotel, which was addressed by Mr. BATZIG, (German,) from Philadelphia, Dr. JOHN K. RAUB, J. B. AMWAKE, Esq., and others. On Friday evening, another Democratic meeting was held at Cox's " Relay House," in N. Prince street, which was addressed by G. W. McEtaoy, S. P. EBY, Esqrs., and others.

Addresses will be delivered by Messrs. HOPKINS, SANDERSON and WESTER, The final meeting of the campaign will he at the polls on Tuesday, where every Demo crat in the county is expected to be present. Keep the Fire burning, boy's, until 7 o'clock on Tuesday evening. "ALL THE DECENCY P+ The Black Republican meeting at Fulton Hall, on last evening, (Friday) was rather a slim gathering when we consider that the town was full of country people attending the' Fair, and the extraordinary exertions made to get up a " monster mass meeting.." STEVENS led off in a speech filled with vituperation of Presi dent Boataties, who seems to trouble the old demagogue as much as Morgan's Ghost did five and twenty years ago. He was vulgar and coarse in his abuse of the President, the senior editor of the Intelligencer, (whom he designa ted, among other; equally chaste expletives, as " a sanctified hypocrite, or libertine—we could not exactly catch the word—who was trying to cheat the Devil, but would get to Hell at last !") and the German speakers who have been doing good service to the Democracy in this City during the present week. Some of the roughest dregs of society were present —loafers of the worst character, who loudly cheered the blackguardisms uttered by the speaker ; and who, strange to say, were heartily joined in the sport of applauding his abusive remarks by professing Christians ! Out upon the hypocrites ! Mr. STEVENS was followed by THOMAS E. Cocartax, Esq., of York, present editor of the Lancaster Union. His speech was a re-hash of Black Republican slang about free-trade, and low abuse of Senator BIGLER and the President. By the time he got through, the audience was thinned out considerably; and the moment he quit, and without waiting for a regular adjournment, there was a general stampede for the door—all appearing anxious to get away, fearing, doublers, that the inflic tion of similar slang and abuse might be im posed upon them by a third speaker. BEWARE OF SPURIOUS TICKETS 2 We caution our Democratic friends against spurious tickets, with which the County will be flooded on the day pf the.election. The enemy will resort to this device, as one means of deceiving and imposingupon honest voters. Beware of them, and see that none such are put in the ballot-box by mistake. Be sure that your ticket ,contains the names of all the Democratic candidates, and that the names are correctly spelled. 'Recollect, Democrats of the City, that he Polls close at 7 o'clock, P. M. "as DEMOCRATS OF LANCASTER CITY AND COUNTY Let us have a parting word before the elec tion. We verily believe that if every Demo. cratic vote is polled in the county, our excel lent ticket will be elected. There are hundreds of good and true men of the old National Whig organization who are with us heart and soul, and who are ready and anxious to record their votes against the Republican or Aboli- tion party. Bat the accession of these men will avail nothing unless the Democracy do their duty. It becomes our Democratic friends, therefore, to exert every nerve in this contest, and to not leave a solitary vote nnpolled in the county, unless sickness prevents it. This is a great contest of principle, in which every - Democrat and every union-loving man has a deep interest. It is a question in which every white laboring man in the community should feel that it is his own cause. The issue is Nationalism against Sect/ono/ism—DEMOC— RACY against ABOLITIONISM. Mr. HOPKINS, the Democratic candidate for Congress, represents 'the National sentiment of the county,—and, therefore, is deserving the support of every Democrat and every Na tional Whig and American in our community • Mr. STEVENS represents the sectional or Abo lition sentiment, and will be supported by all those who think a negro as good as a white man, and who favor equalitypequal rights and privileges, between the white and black races. Mr. HorziNs is a Union-loving, true-hearted man, who, if elected, will faithfully and hon estly represent the people on this and all other questions which may arise in Congress;—Mr. STEVENS occupies the opposite platform, is the very head and front of the Abolition party in Pennsylvania, and will misrepresent the pub lic sentiment of the county, if elected, so strong are his prejudices in favor of the negro race, and against the constitutional rights of fifteen States of the Union. We ask the people to judge fairly and con scientiously between these 'two men ; and especially do we now make a closing appeal to our friends to come up to the work as one man, and to be sure that every Democratic vote in the county goes into the ballot-box on Tuesday. Give that entire day to your coun try, fellow Democrats, and do not rest satisfied until every one of your neighbors, who favors the election of Mr. HOPKINS, has deposited his vote likewise. Every vote will count in the present contest, and even one vote -may turn the scale. Once more, then, we urge you, one and all, to the conflict.— Give a "long pull, a strong pull, and a pull altogether," AND THE DAY IS OUR OWN. THE COUNTY FAIR We have only room to say that the County Fair, which commenced on Tuesday and will close this afternoon, (Saturday) was every thing that could have been desired, and must have been witnessed by more than twenty thousand persons. The stock, agricultural and mechanical instruments, fancy and other articles, with the horses, &c. &c., were supe• rior to anything we have witnessed in a long time. The address, which was exceedingly able and interesting, was delivered on Friday, by Professor PORTER, of Franklin and Marshall College, and listened to attentively by an im mense concourse of people of both sexes. The election being out of the way, we shall, in our next issue, give a detailed account of the Fair, as well as resume our usual variety in the news and miscellaneous department of the paper, for which, no (Muhl:, our readers will be thankful. LOOK OUT FOR THE " STICKERS I" The following is a verbatim copy of a letter received a few days ago by a Democrat of Mount Joy: LANCASTER, Oct. 4, 1858 DEAR SIR: Herewith I send you some of my stickers, hoping that you will place them over the name of HENRY E. LEMAN upon the Dem ocratic ticket. They are making great exersions in Millers town, Warwick, and Penn to have me defeated on account of me sustaining the present Mili tary Law, and I must look to the Military for their support to - make up the deficiency. Respectfully, your friend. SAML. 11. PRICE. Vir We can assure Col. PRICE that his "stickers" were duly received, and that they will either stick in the pocket of the holder, or be stuck in the stove! He can't come it over Mr. LE3l.N'fti that way, nn h a hs , can fix it. The Demociats of Mount Joy, as elsewhere, whether in the military or not, will all vote the whole Democratic ticket—State and Coun ty—without striking a name upon it. EXAMINE TOUR TICKET ! Let every voter in the county opposed to THADDEUS STEVENS and ABOLITIONISM. he sure that he votes the following ticket : Judge of Supreme Court WILLIAM A. PORTER. Canal Commissioner WESTLEY FROST. Congress. JAMES M. HOPKINS Assembly. HENRY E. LEMAN, HENRY SHREINER, SAMUEL HOLL Y JOHN H. BRENNEMAN County Commissioner. THOMAS W. HENDERSON Prison Inspectors. HENRY SHELT.Y. JOHN REINHOLD. Directors of the Poor. JOHN ROWE, PREDERICK KREAMER Auditor. WILLIAM F. JENKINS BEWARE OF TREACHERY! DEMOCRATS of Lancaster beware of treachery to JAMES M. HOPKINS and the Democratic ticket. We have teason to suspect that men professing to be trieinis of our cause, will give out mongrel tickets, deceiving honest voters in the tneu of their choice. Take no tickets unless from men who are unfaltering, honest Democrats, and before YOU VOTE SEE THAT IT IS THE RIGIIT TICKET! Beware ! EVERY VOTE COUNTS: DEMOCRATS ! Remember that 0N E VOTE may decide the election in this county, on Tuesday next. Hundreds of examples elsewhere might be given to show the fatal effect of one solitary vote remaining away from the polls on the day of election. Good wishes alone for success amount to nothing. Do not indulge in the fatal delusion that our ticket is safe enough without your vote. Put your own ticket in the ballot box, and see that your Democratic neighbor does the same.— WATCH-WORK-BE VIGILANT-AND WE HAVE EVERY REASON TO BELIEVE THAT WE SHALL BE REWARDED WITH A GLORIOUS VICTORY SKIES BRIGHT IN OHIO.—The Ohio States man says that all goes well with the Demo cracy of Ohio. Thirteen members of the next Congress and the election of our whole State ticket by a large majority, is the mark of the Democracy, and it will be attained. The enemy, mostly despairing of being able to restore and reanimate their forces for a gen eral campaign, have contented themselves with frantic efforts in two or three districts. Be sides successfully defending these, the Democ racy have "carried the war into Africa," and we have certainly captured four of their dis tricts. From this time until the 12th of October the Democracy will charge along the line, and secure the election of our State ticket. MINISTER TO SPAIN ion. WlLLtear PRESTON, of Kentucky, has been appointed by the President, Minister to Spain, and will shortly sail for Europe. DEitocit 4mriir, WILY PARTY rill' parveit rvi rtLy. IF taxtqlrearcu:-- “tiLo • LINE WYIDAP , NOW CALLED UPON Tel “CRUS I IT OCT," BY irtiOsE, WHO DESTROYED THE OLD. WHIG PARTY! The ABOLITIONISTS, under the assumed name and guise - of. "Republicans " and " Union sts," are now loudly calling upon the old friends of HENRY CLAY and DANIEL WEB STER, to aid them in their pyesent death struggle with the Democracy. CLAY' and WEBSTER are represented as the ancient adversaries of the Democratic, and the Leaders of the Whig party, and their old friends and followers are whiningly beseeched,- in—the present--crisis, to reward the. Leaders of Alm). I i tionism, who, by their pestilential association, first polluted, and then entirely disrupted that proud old party. We have, on every proper occasion, introduced to our readers solemn facts, Om the political history of the country, to show that neither HENRY CLAY, nor DANIEL WEBSTER, nor the thousands of other distin -tinguished men, who were the embodiment of the Whig party, ever gave the slightest coun tenance to Abolitionism, even in its mildest shape or form. On the contrary, these Patriots and Statesmen united with the Democracy, against this dangerous Faction, in passing the "Compromise Measures" of 1850; and, ever since the Presidential nomination of 1852, have stood upon the National platform of the Democratic party. Will THADDEUS STEVENS, or any of his pupils who are displaying their oratory through the county, dare to contradict any position we have here assumed, or charge that we have made? Will they deny that whilst Josteu RANDALI, REVERDY JOHNSON, PEARCE and PRATT, of Maryland, PRESTON, of Kentucky, with hun dreds of other Old Line Whigs, united with the Democracy in the memorable campaign of 1856, and, in the loudest tones of their burning eloquence, gallantly aided in sustaining the doctrines and principles of the Democratic party—recognizing " popular sovereignty" and the " equal rights of all the States," as vital principles in the Democratic creed." Will Mr. STEVENS, or his orators, or organs, we ask, deny the " odious truth," that at that very time his Black Republican allies—the orators of his party—booked up in their parts by HIS Convention—were Iluoding the country with such " NATIONAL SENTIMENTS " as would, (if such things could be,) cause the bones of WASHINGTON and JACKSON to rattle in their coffins 1 Their Black Republican Speakor, BANKS, declared his willingness, " in a certain state of circumstances, to let the UNION slide!" Judge SPAULDING, (an Ohio leader,) in the Abolition Convention, said: stir. In case of the alternative being presented of the continuance of Slavery or a dissolu tion of the Union, lam for DISSOLUTION, 'and I care not how quick it comes ! ! The witty Senator, JOHN P. HALE, in ad dressing the same Convention, said: ter You have assembled not to say whether the UNION SHALL BE PRESERVED, but whether it shall be a blessing or a scorn or hissing among the Nations! 1 BURLINGAME, one of the greatest of the Massachusetts big guns,, said in the U. S. House of Representatives, in 1856: seer The times DEMAND, and we MUST have, an Anti Slavery CONSTITUTION, an Anti-Slavery BIBLE, and an Anti Slavery GOD!!! WENDELL PHILLIPS, in his harangue at a free soil Abolition meeting at Boston, dis courses as follows: 41&" We confess that WE intend to trample under foot the Constitution of thiB Country ! DANIEL WEB` , TER says to you: " You are a LAW-abiding People —that the glory of New England is, that it is a Law Abiding Community!" SHAME on it, if this be true; if even the Religion of New England sinks as lour as its Statute book! But I say, we are not a Law Abiding Community!—GOD be thanked for it ! The notorious WM. LLOYD GARRISON pro nounced his malediction, as follows, before a New York audience: g This Union is to lie! The American Union is a Sham, an Im posture, a Covenant with DEATH, an Agreement with HELL, and it is our business to call for a DISSOLUTION !! ! These are but faint samples of the Bedlamite ravings of Abolition Leaders, in the Northern and Eastern States, throughout the Presiden- tial campaign of 1856. The mind is lost in astonishment on looking at the revolting pic ture, presented in these maniac howling of Abolition: wire-pullers. Sumner, Wilson, Giddings, Wade, Seward, and hundreds of others for whose names we have no room, from THADDEUS STEVENS down to Gen. JAMES WATSON WEBB, occupy conspicuous niches in this magnificent galaxy of UNION—LOVING DEFENDERS OF THE CONSTITUTION!!! The old friends of HENRY CLAY and DANIEL WEBSTER asked to follow the lead of a party having no vitality outside of the fearful doc trines above presented! Why, the very utterance of such an idea should be sufficient almost to induce Saints above to look down in anger upon it as a gross profanation of the name and principles of the Illustrious Dead I The nationality, the patriotism of Ilit-rav CLAY has never been doubted. In early life, and up to the time of the Presidential troubles of 1824—'25, he was a prominent member of the Democratic party. He afterwards became connected with the old Whig party, which so long and honorably contended for supremacy with the Democracy; both standing upon the broad Constitutional platform. He became the proudly recognized Leader of the Whig party, and once its candidate for the Presi dency. He lived to witness and mourn over its disruption: and before his death he again stood, with thousands and tens of thousands of his trusty followers, side by side with the old Democratic party, on the only Constitu• tional Platform in existence! Let us now hear lIENRY CLAY upon Aboli tionism! lie witnessed the insidious advances of the political Hyena, and raised his powerful voice to avert the approaching mischief, which his prophetic vision descried in the far off distance of time! Yes, fellow citizens of Lan caster county, the Sage of Ashland, in his seat in the Senate of the United States, as early as the ith of February, 1839, was called upon to speak upon the danger to be apprehended to the stability of the Union; from the encroach. ment of Abolitionism. Mr. CLAY, ill addressing the Senate. said: " I am not in the habit of speaking lightly of the possibility of dissolving the Union! The Senate know that I have deprecated allusions, on ordinary occasions, to that direful event.— The country will testify, that if there is any thing in the history of my public career worthy of recollection, it is the truth and sin verity of my ardent devotion to its lasting preservation! But we should be false in our allegiance to or, if we did not discriminate between the imaginary and real dangers by which it may be assailed. ABOLITIONISM should no longer be regarded as an imaginary danger! The ABOLITIONISTS, let me sup. pose, succeed in their present aim of uniting the inhabitants of the free States, as one man, against the inhabitants of the slave States!— UNION on one side, will beget ONION on the other, and this process of reciprocal consolida tion will be attended with all the violent prejudice, embittered pass-ions, and implacable animosities that ever degraded or deformed human nature! One section will stand in menacing and hostile array against the other! The collisions of opinions will be quickly fol lowed by theclash of arms! * * * * * ABOLITIONISTS themselves would shrink back in dismay and horror at the eontempla. tion of desolated fields, conjlagrated cities, murdered inhabitants, and the overthrow of the fairest fabric of Human Government that ever .‘,. ruse to cialnat4 fhe hopes ofcicitded mein ! 1 It would fill a volume to follow Mr. CLAY in the eloquent and startling warnings he has given tkis countrymen, from the time he made the above speech to his last effort in public life. We will, therefoie, only introduce a brief extract or two from a speech he made in 1851, before the Legislature of Kentucky, where, he appeared, by special invitation, to give his views on the subjept of the "Compromise Measures" of the preceding year, and in reference to the parties and prominent actors in that eventfui struggle. In the thrilling strains of-his-own,-masterly eloquence he dis charged-this duty--Irivingalife-like descrip tion, not only of what had already taken place, but what he saw approaching through the vista of time! How unerring has been' his predio tionsl After the applause succeeding one of his bursts of matchless eloquence, Mr. CLAY proceeded: " Sir, I go a step farther ; I have had great hope and confidence in the principles of the Whig party, as being most likely to conduce to the honor, prosperity, and glory of our country. But if it is to be merged into a con temptible Abolition party, and if Abolitionism is to be engrafted on the Whig creed, from that moment I . renounce the party and cease to be a Whig. I go yet a step further. If lam alive, I will give my humble support for the Presi dency to that man, to whatever party he may belong, who is uncontaminated by fanaticism, rather than to one who, crying out all the time and aloud that he is a Whig. maintains doctrines utterly subversive of the Constitution of the Union." Again, in the same speech, Mr. CLAY said "Out of our late heated discussions and diversions, one good result has been produced. The people generally, Whigs and Democrats, have been more thrown together in free and friendly intercourse. Both have learned to appreciate each other. For myself, I say, alike with true, hearty pleasure, that during the late arduous and protracted session, /wax in conference and consultation quite as often, if not oftener, with the Democrats than Whigs, and I found in the Democratic party quite as much patriotism, devotion to the UNION, probity and honor, as in any other party." Here, truly, is a damper to the high expec tations of the Abolition managers, who have been claiming the sympathy and support of the "old line Whig friends" of HENRY CLAY! We might introduce upon the forum the sons and representatives of HENRY CLAY and DAN IEL WEBSTER, (who. it will be remembered, spoke in Lancaster two years ago,) ,for the purpose of showing that the Sages of Ashland and Marshfield stood erect and firm upon the NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM, when the grim messenger came to remove them from earth. But, we have produced enough to put down FALSEHOOD, and vindicate TRUTH! Rally, Democrats ! TO THE POLLS ! TO THE POLLS ! ! The General Election will be held on Tues day next, the 12= OT OCTOBER. Democrats of the several districts, are you ready, and have you made every preparation to have a full vote out. Remember, EVERY VOTE must be polled. Not one vote must be left behind. If every preparation has not been made, SEE TO IT WITHOUT FURTHER DELAY. BE ON THE GROUND EARLY and see that you deposit your VOTE EARLY. After having deposited your own vote, see that YOUR NEIGHBOR deposits his vote. See to this, and if the weather should not be fair, or from some other cause your neighbor cannot get to the polls, provide a conveyance for him, and see that his Tote is safely deposited in the ballot box. BE CAREFUL that not a single vote is lost, or left away from the polls. The election will, most likely, be closely contested, and it is a matter of impor tance that every Democratic vote should be polled. EXAMINE YOUR TICKETS! See that you examine your tickets carefully See that it is the full ticket and that EVERY NAME IN CORRECT. Vote the whole ticket WITHOUT SCRATCH— ING A NAME. A good Democrat votes for principles, and votes the entire ticket as regu larly nominated. BEWARE OF STORIES that may be circulated just on the eve of the election. These are generally gotten up when it is too late to contradict them. Listen not to any such things about the candidates. But STICK TO THE TICKET I Be vigilant—be active, WORK HARD ALL DAY. RALLY FOR THE GOOD OLD CAUSE—Work together—Use all Mr and honorable means to secure success. GIVE A LONG PULL—A STRONG PULL AND A PULL ALTOGETHER, for the WHOLE TICKET, and victory will perch upon our banners! CAN THEY BE BOUGHT Can any portion of our Democratic friends —native or foreign born—be bought and bribed to vote for THADDEUS STEVENS? We do not believe it—we have too much confidence in their integrity for that. And yet, it is certain that the Republican leaders are spending money like water, and have already distributed thousands of dollars in this City and County to further the election of this "bold, bad than." It bas come to a pretty pass indeed, when MONEY has to be resorted to in Lancaster county for the purpose of BUYING votes to carry an election; but such is the fact, and STEVENS' lacqueys are boasting openly that they will elect him if it should cost TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS! Will the free and independent citizens of the county stand this mode of electioneering? We think not. On the contrary, we believe that they will teach this corrupt and dishonest Abolition party a lesson, at the Polls, on TUESDAY NEXT, which they will not soon forget. A GREAT CONFLAGRATION ! The Crystal Palace, at New York, with all its contents, was totally destroyed by fire on Tuesday afternoon. It is supposed that sev eral lives were lost. The value of the building was estimated at $250,000, and the contents nearly double that amount—thus making a total loss of some $700,0001 The building was crowded with articles on exhibition of almost every possible description. There were about 2000 visitxs in the building at the time the fire commenced. The flames spread with astonishing rapidity, and the heat was intense ; yet the large num ber of visitors all managed to get out safely. The fire originated in the lumber room of the building, which was filled with empty boxes and old lumber, and is supposed to have been the work of an incendiary. Fifty-one Republicans and Know Nothings in the House of Representatives which elected Banks Speaker, there being a majority of the " Opposition" in the House, voted in 1857 to reduce the duty on iron from thirty to twenty four per cent I The same party which reduced the duty, is now making great professions of its devotion to the iron interests, and of its desire to see them protected in the iron " dis tricts" of Pennsylvania and Ohio-! For the Intehlgencer. BLACK REPUBLICAN ABUSE. Amongst the speakers at the Abolition meeting held in Maytown, a few days ago, was Mr. 0. J. DICKEY, who In dulged in all kinds of abuse of prominent Democrats, amongst others of our young friend, Tema J. AIBRIG HT, Esq., now of Washington City. It won't avail these Abo litionists, however. Mr. A. Is too well known in East Donegal to be injured by each Black Republican slang whangers; and those who indulge in it, will find that they era Injuring themselves, and benefiting the object of their hatred. We would desire no better eulogy then to have the abuse and falsehoods of such men as Dickey, Johnston and Shenk showered upon our head. AN OLD LINB WHIG.

Awl the Boned of trumpets and the noise of many warriors was heard throughout the lat,d, and there was sore dirdreas throughout all the domin Inns of King Thaddeus. 2. And many ainjwire were tho battles fought between the black legions of the King and the lion-hearted warri ors of James of/I/rumor°, and the flag of freedom waived over many of ,the strong fortresses of the laud. 8. And it 'came to pus that the Klog, weary and faint from the team and bloody war, resolved to make one more bold end'datermined aZart to save his Grown and his king dom, and to that end he sent a herald to James of Drutnore challenging him to fight a grand and decisive battle on the twelfth day of the tenth month; '4. Saying, go to, let us sod this bloody strife by one final appeal to arms, and whosoever is discomfited let him be the servant of the other, he and his warriors, with their wives and their little ones, forever. 6. And the saying of the King pleased James of Dna mare well, and he straightway commanded his Lieutenants throughout the realm to assemble the brave men under their command in the great valley of the Conestoga, pre paratory to the decisive battle; King Thaddeus also did the same, and the whole country was in anxious suspense as to the reenit of the approaching battle. 6. And the King returned to his Palace, and his chief captains and counsellors gathered around him. 7. The Chief Captain of the people, James of Drumore, also pitched his tont in the gnat city of the kingdom, rea dy end willing to lead hie valiant followers forth to the conflict. 8. And behold! there was great commotion throughout the entire country of the Conestoga. and every man girded on his armor and went forth to the battle. THE FOREIGN VOTE The Republican leaders are boasting that they have bought over many of our Irish and German fellow citizens to vote for THADDEUS STEVENS. We do not believe a word of such stuff. The idea that this class of cur people will so far forget their duty and stultify them selves. as to turn their backs upon the Democ racy who hare always stand by and protected them in tlieli- rights, and vote , hat party or for its candidates who have alo-ors been their most inveterate enemies. is an to their integrity, good sense patriotism.

What! The Irish and German population of this city or county to vote for THAD DEUS STEVENS the Chief of the Aholitionists in Pennsylvania, is preposterous to contem plate. To vote for a man who, if he obtained the power, would SO free every mp, in the Southern States, and have our State, hilt par titularly Lancaster and other border counties, over run with hordes of these dmraded crea tures, is what we are sore they cannot do, if they give the subject a moment's reflection.— Why, every Negro that comes amongst us must he supported and employed, and, as a necessary consequence, will take the support and employment from a White Mon ; end just in proportion as Negroes are introduced, in the same ratio will White laboring men he driven out. Let Abolitionism have the sway, and in a few years there will he as many Negroes in Pennsylvania as Whites ; and this is the feast to which our foreign horn citizens are invited by the Republican leaders in Lan. caster county ! Let our Irish and German friends think of this before it is ton I ite. ONE CAUSE OF HIGH TAXES The people complain, and very justly too, of high taxes, both State and County. Ono cause, and the nrincipal one, undoubtedly. is the extravagance of our public men. Formerly, members of Congress, when such intellectual giants as Webster, and Clay, and Calhoun, and Buchanan were Representatives, were content with EIGHT DOLLARS per diem, or less than twenty-five hundred dollars for the entire term of two sessions ; now, they must have over TWENTY DOLLARS per day, or SIX THOUSAND DOLLARS for the two sessions ! Formerly, members of the Legislature received three dollars per day; now they vote themselves SEVEN DOLLARS ! This extravagant in crease of Legislative pay, together with the enormous waste of the public funds under the Ritner Administration, when THADDEUS STE VENS was Canal Commissioner, will sufficiently account for the onerous State tax to which the people are subject; and the equally burden some County tax may be traced to the great expense of the Contested Election Case of last year, and the cost of trying Negroes in our Criminal Court, and supporting them in the Poor House and Prison. Whilst this state of things continues, the people may look in vain for a diminution of their taxes. The best way to put a stop to these enormous leaks in the publio treasury, is to oppose the man or mea who created them, and to vote for the Demo cratic candidates for Congress and Assembly, who are pledged to reform, and to a reduction of salaries. A FEW FACTS FOR TAX-PAYERS I Many years ago THADDEUS STEVENS left Vermont, the land of wooden nutmegs and Yankee notions, and pitched his tent in gond old Pennsylvania. From that day to this he has been an eye-sore and a trouble to our peo• ple, and has cost the State more than any ten men who have ever lived in it. Look at the figures: The Gettysburg Tapeworm (prin cipal and interest) about $2,000,000 The Buckshot War (principal and interest) The Masonic Inquisition (princi pal and Interest) The Contested Election Case of last year, Amount, To this might be added THREE or FOUR MILLIONS more of the public money, reck— lessly squandered by the Ritner administration and by his Canal Commissioners (of whom STEVENS was one) in their futile attempt to perpetuate their power in the State. During that administration, they also received about THREE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS from the General Government—the State's quota from. the sale of the public lands—and that, too, was spent in their electioneering efforts; and all the time the State debt, instead of being reduced, was increased to the amount of some SIX or EIGHT MILLIONS in the three years of their misrule ! We wish the voters of Lancaster county to consider this matter well before they vote on Tuesday next. If these Yankee adventurers have made the people of Pennsylvania "pay so dear for the whistle" in the past, they should be deprived of the power of repeating such experiments in the future. We want the tax payers to reflect on the matter. THE GRAIN CROP oe EUROPE.—The Boston Journal thus epitomizes the infi,rmation res pecting the European grain crop of 1858, as derived from latest English papers : " In the counties bordering upon the Med iterranean the crop is variously reported, but upon the whole may be regarded as equal to, if not exceeding. an average. Egypt will furnish full average. Spain and Portugal will not require any supplies from other coun tries. In Belgium and Holland there is an average crop ; while in the Baltic regions, including Northern Germany and Western Russia, the yield is below an average, athough high prices may induce exports to some extent. In France there is a fair crop of wheat and rye, oats being inferior. The cereal crop of England exceeds the average, and a portion of the extraordinary wheat yield of last year still remains in the hands of farmers to be added to this year's harvest. Other breadstuffs are somewhat under the average. In Ireland all kinds of produce are abundant, compared with recent years. The wheat crop of Scotland is excellent, other crops being medium, and pos sibly below. On the whole, the United-King dom will this year require smaller imports of grain than in ordinary seasons: The supplyf ing power of Central Russia is not yet deter mined." 300,000 $2,333,000
