Death of Mr. Muhlenburg.
Henry A. Muhlenburg, the demo
cratic candidate for Governor is no
more ! He expired at his residence, in
Rea - ding, on Sunday, llth inst., at 4
o'clock, P. M., being stricken with
apoplexy. We extract from the Read
ing Democrat, the following account of
this melancholy occurrence :
•• By art inscrutable dispensation of
Divine' Providence, our friend and fel
low-citizen, HENRY A. MUHLEN
BURG has suddenly been removed
from this life. But yesterday he was
mixing among the , ,, busy throngs of
men, full of vigor and in a state of
- health, promising long years' of honor
and happiness' to himself and of useful
ness to society—to-day leis laid low
in Death, and the places that have
known him shall know him no more.
We cannot
_speZk of .him, now as we
could wish. Our mind, distracted with
the,grief which; pervadei the whole
community. is incapable of addressing
to the people more than the simple an
nouncement of their loss.
The circumstances which attended
this bereavement, are these: Several
gentlemen from abroad had been pass
mg the last evening with Mr. Mullen
burg, at his house, where they staid un
til probably about ten o'clock. When
they left he accompanied them to the
front door, at which-after they had gone,
he seated himself upon a chair, as was
his custom to enjoy the coolness Of the
night breeze. Several gentlemen who
passed between that and , half-past ten
or later, saw' him sitting here. - 4t'
about eleien he was found prostrafeiitd . ,
insensible upon the step,. with hisliead
down, stricken with APOPLE?Y.—•
Every effort that medical' could'
suggest was made—btft in vain. He
never spoke after. 44 — was - discovered;-
hut remained insensible until he expir
ed, which was atinutia'clock this after
noon.
,
STalsor. , ,ltrgosi.-=A rumor reached
this pliee Situidak. evening,', that
the funeral of Mr. Mublenberg bad been
postponed in consequence, of-signs of
life in the body, on. Wednesday; at the
hour appointed for his funeral. The
Pm - ails `of,, Monday eveuing brought us
`information that the the rumor ppvailed
in every part of the State, iho' were
`are left withoOt any thing authentic.—
We copy the following from the Phil.
adelphia Ledger.
A friend in_ this city has shown us a
letter from Reading, dated August 14,
from which we-make the following ex
tract:—., Our town is in the greatest
confusion at Mr. Muhlenburg's death.
He was to-have been buried to-day—it
- was postponed. They think he is not
Thodoetors cupped him to-day,
:and the cups were filled - : with blood.
:and what is still more sistonishing, it
was warm. They had ice about him
until yesterday noon.. Theit appears
not to have been any change in him ;
belotiks gust the same as he did when
living. People are here from all parts
of the; State. - Crowds about his hoOse
alt tlay,, even now, - nine o'clock , .at
night, Crowds are awaiting about- his

cordially cainrring in the universal
dPinion sent:Odt from every: portions of

should now be" the man by acclamation,
without a dissenting voice.'
The expression of the democracy al
ready made in his favor is scarcely
less than that vihich pominatecl the la
mented Muhlenburg. None were more
early. or more zealous.friends of H. A.
Muhlenburg than ourselves. We es
poused his cause with our whole heart,
and we now as cheerfully arid Zealous
ly espouse that of Francis R. Shunt:: .
The position in which he is placed by
the proceedings of . the 4th of March
Convention at Harrisburg, not only
justly entitles him now to the distinc
then conferred on Mr, Muhlenburg, but
they place the matter beyond all doubt,
This preference is expressed , by seek':
mation every where among the democ
racy, and on this subject we have yet
to learn the first dissenting voice in
Bradford.

GENTLEMEN-I have just received
your kind invitation; and as I am about
to leave home in a few moments, my
answer must be'very brief;
It will be impossible for me, consist
antly with other engagements, to visit
Towanda, on. the 28th, August, but if
you will postpone your meeting until
any day of the week commencing on
the Bth September, I shall be with you,.
life and health permitting.
I have a great desire to pay you a

The Bradford Argue.
It is seldom that we deem the Assaults
or misrepresentations of the Argus,
worthy our notice. Its character; or
rather ward of Character 'is generally . a
ehield'aniast.itit attacks: An atttempt
at,deception t is
,however made in the
Jait .qumbeetw - hicltteems to demand
sorde'sli,glit t, atfdtit**st silence might
be, coaattiieiitigln'adrnission -of its
correctnest. - ; .In first article under
the.itlikorial head, they4tave three ex
tractilurporting to be copied from our
papee, — And represented' as our language
and sentiments; the two first are ours - ,
and we would not change word of
either of them. The last one we utter
ly disclaim. We neither indited or
adcipted the language it contains. And
the, Editors, when_they inserted it,
crediting it to this paper, knew they
*ere arranging it for the'sole and only
purpose of conveying false impres
sion to their readers, to make the public
believe that we had used language, and
adopted sentiments which we never had.
True, we had copied into our - paper of
the 24tlf tilt July. the words quoted by
the Argus : but we published them as
part of a letter written in 1839, by A.
B. Dickinson giving the opinions he
then entertained of Mr. Clay. Although
he is now making stump speeches in
favor of this same Mr. Clay.
For :ourselves we are not much sur
prised at the impudince and reckless.
ness of the Argus. It is but obeying
the impulse of Federal principles. But
low, stinken, and lost indeed must be
thit cause and that party, which can on
ly be sustained by such a reckless .ef
fort: to compel its opponents to adopt
their own filthy and profanelanguage.

I. observe tho : name of 601. D.M.

Col. Bull is favorably known isktbis

his personal popularity, his views on
National questions, especially, those that
affect the vital-interest of Pennsylvania
fully accord with those entertained and
cherished by our democratic citizens in

D. liVumar, ESQ.—Dear Sir': the
undersigned take the liberty of request
ing you to permit your name to be pub
licly presented as .a candidate for Con
gress, through the democratic organ for
this county. We are aware that at home
the spontaneous voice of the democracy
has already made yournat4 familiar with
our democratic friends in cennexion with
that office. Indeed, for a long time past,
we have beard no other person mention
ed, as likely to be a can didate, except
yourself ; but the true posture of affairs
may ,not be so well understood in other
counties of this Congreseional district.
We take great pleasure in expyessing to
you our firm conviction, that in our judg
ment, the democratic part will be found
as unanimous in every efection district
in your favor, as this letter shows them
to be in your own:
Very respectfully, yiur friends,
WILLIAM EIT ELL,
J. F. MEANS, and others.
Towanda, Au i 17, 1844.
Er.wzr,L, ESQ., AN ornmis
Gentlemen—Your! note of this date,
.signed by nearly every 'democratic voter
•of the Borough of Towanda4 requesting
me "to permit my name to be publicly
announced as a candidateifor Congress"
has just been handed to me.
I am .deeply grateful for your kind ex
pressions towards me, arid the very hon
orable use which you propese to make
of my name. A rionztion, made in
accordance with the us es of the party,
is an indispensable pre-requisite, in the
mind of every ; good democrat, before al
lowing his noble to be used! as a candi
date. Should Ibe nominated, I frankly
confess, that I would be proud to be the
candidate of a party which inscribeitits
painciples, upon itebanners; and boldly
appeals to the patriotism, I Intelligence
and virtue of the people. Such an event,
would doubtless subject! me to the ruth
less assaults of a vindictive and malig
nant opposition.
But a magnanimous and chivalric par
ty, deserts not- those whom federalism
unjustly assails, but, shields, and defends
them as with'a wall• ci,f fire, from the
bolts and shafts of those who seek pow
er at the expense of truth, of justice, and
the rights of the people.

meet wish he first parent, Who should
have full credit at our ham% if we did
but know;who he is:
aGood nature is a gem - which al ,
ways shines brightly in whatever ground
it is set. It cheers the,darkneas of mis
fortune-and warms the heart that is cal
lous and cold. In social life who has
not seen and felt its charming influences.

make every body else happy, be gee.
natured. Don't let little matters rile
and ruffle you. Nobody gains any
thing by being cross . , and crabbed. A
friend has injured you--the world goes
hard--;.you want employment, but can't
•get it--or you can't get your fieriest
dues—or the fire has consuted or the
waters have swallowed up the fruits of
mans' years' hard Libor—or your merits
are overlooked. or your faults magnified
—or enetnies have tradueed,ory friends
have deceived. Neier mind ; don't
get mad .w i ith anybody; don't curse the
world or any of its creatures ; keep
good natured, and our word for it, it
will all come right. The soft south
wind and the genial sun are not more
effectual in clothing earth• with the green
grass and sweet flowers of spring, than
is good nature in adorning the hearts
and lives of men, and woman too, with
blossoms of kindness and affection, and
those flowers of virtue whose fragrance
goes up to heaven.
By the way, and aside. We would
whisper in the ear of the sovereign peo
ple, who are interested in political mat
ters, the importance of good nature.—
We would suggest to democrats and
whige, that in the presidential contest
nothiug wilt be gained to either party
I ty the manifestation of ill will, or by
quarrelling with each other. Most
men are honest, some men are nobet
ter than they ought to be,- and others
are a. good deal worse. Well, we
mast take them as we find. them, bet
ter or worse. But don't show a quar
relsome temper—lreep cool, keep
good natured. Fight the political bat
tle manfully and pleasantly. Smiles
are more powerful than frowns ; a
friendly, good natured conversation, a
kind, honest expression of opinion, will
do more towards achieving a conquest,
or reclaiming that have gone astray,
than all the harsh epithets or irritating
expressiOns that were ever restored to.
To be good natured it is not necessa
ry to submit to imposition or insult ;
but it will generally be found that a
, man who will resort to such means is
I a coward, and not worth noticing in
any way, unless it be . to laugh at his
inconsistencies. The good natured
minis generally brave, generous, loves
his fellow-men, loves his .country and
honors his Creator.
And one word to our democratic
friends in particular. Little differences
exist among us. Some of ,us prefer
o4il man for the Presidency—some an
44er. Some prefer this course, others
that. Well, let as agree to differ. Let
us keep good natured, and not fret and
scold and bluster and threaten. 4
house divided against Val' cannot
stand. ,We are all brethren, all con
tending for the same great prineiples—
all embarked in , f the same ' good ship,
and for the same good, cause. Let us,
then, always bd governed by good na
ture. pressonward in the glorious work
of putting the ship estate again on the
republiean track."

The Object of the meeting having
been stated by the . President, the fol
lowing preamble and resolutions were
offered for the consideration of the meet
ing. by WM. ELWELL Esq
Whereas, the melancholy intelligence
has reached us, that the Hon. Henry
Ilfuhlenburg, the Democratic nomi
nee for Governor of this State, without
previous - illness, departed this life on
the 11th inst.
Resolved, That we feet with keenest
sensibility the Providence which has
so suddenly ent off in the midst of his
usefulness, a sound and able statesman,
a warm-hearted friend—a staunch and
unyielding advocate of the rights of the
people—a man of a noble and generous
nature, of pure principles and incorrup
tible integrity. Although deprived of
manifesting their high regard for his
eminent public worth at the ballot box,
the people of his native state will ever
cherish his name as one worthy of.their
highest confidence, regard and respect;
and whom they always delighted to
honor. We can offer to his afflicted .
family no other condolence than to
mourn with them as we do for the great
and irreparable loss which they and we
have sustained.
Resolved, That we have the fullest
confidence in the integrity and abilities
of Francis R. Shunk, and we are unani
mously in 'favor of his nomination for
Governor of this State by the demo
cratic convention to be convened at
Harrisburg on the 2d day, of Sept. next;
and that under all the circumstances, it
would be unwise, impolitic and suicidal
tp the best interests of the Democratic
party to put any other person in nomi
nation for that office.
On presenting the resolutions, Mr.
Elwell addressed the meeting for some
minutes, in a forcible and pathetic
strain of eloquence. He alluded to the
talents, the patriotism and the exalted
character and worth of the departed
statesman. who had to the hour of his
death enjoyed the entire confidence
and esteem of his fellow-citizens—to
the almost certainty of his elevation by
the democtaciof-bis native state to the
highest post of 116 - nor within their gift,
and to the afflicting and overwhelming
dispensation of Providence in removing
him•so suddenly from the scenes of his
usefulness. Mr. Elwell concluded by
recommending the adoption of the re
solution proposing an cis R. Shunt:
as the candidate for Govervor, in , place
of Mr. M., as the tree policy of the
Democratic party, and as the certain
course to triumphant success.
He was followed by Messrs. D. Wil
mot, A. Chubbuck, V. E. Piollet and
Ulysses Mercur—all .advocating the
,passage of the resolutions, and clearly
elucidating the position that public
opinion now pointed with unerring cer
tainty to FRANCIS R. SHUNS as
the man.
The resolutions reie adopted unani
mously.
.0n motion of D. Wilmot Esq., the
officers of the meeting were constituted
a committee to forward 'the preamble
and first resolution to the bereaved fami
ly of the late lamented. Mr. Muhlen
