E. S. Gonoaren Dear Sir: I have been
honored with a letter from Mr. Van Buren in answer to
the democratic proceedings recently bad in Bradford, and
which I bad forwarded him by order of the meeting.
The letter belongs to the democracy of Bradford Coun
ty, and the sentiments so eloquently and patriotically ex
pressed, in approbation of their steady support, of• re
publican principles, and gratitude fur unwavering friend
ship to himself cannot fail to be received with deep in
terest, and highly appreciated. Also, that the resolutions
put forth and the political doctrines declared for by the
democracy of Bradford, should have met gn decided a re.
sponse from Martin Van Buren. is high evidence of their
atrrectims, and will ne an incentive, in coming time, to
renewed exertion' in support of the great doctrines of
democratic truth: doctrines and principlea that have
been maintained by Mr. Van Buren, through a long and
eventful political career, with signal abilityind faithful
ness.
With great respect, very truly yours,

DEAR ant :—I have had the honor to receive the pro
ceedings of the Democracy of Bradford County, which
you have had the goodness to communicate to me by
their directions.
The exemplary patriotism by which the other portions
of these proceedings are characterized, is in honorable
harmony with the well known and long established
character of the true hearted Democracy of Bradford. I
feel that I may well pride myself in receiving at such
hands, expressions of approbation of my public conduct
and confidence in my political principle*, like those they
have been pleased to make. Coming from those who
like myself, have all their lives supported the same prin
ciples, and who still continue to do so with unbated zeal,
they are doubly valuable. I beg the Democracy of Brad
ford to he assured that I so regard them, and that u such
proofs of the confidence and esteem of my - Fellow Citi:
Zeus, is for the future the only, so is it a most ample re
ward for whatever service it may have been in my pow
er to render our common Country.
Accept my best thanks for the obliging terms in which
you have been pleased to communicate the proceedings
of the meeting, and believe me to be
Very respectfully, and truly,
C'your friend and obedient sent,

(
Ma Dean Bra :—I receiyed with much pleasure,your
letter, and a copy of the oceedings of a meeting of the
Democracy of Bradford County.
The principles set forth in thelie proceedings are the
true principles of the Republican faith, and will stand
the test of time. Under their influence our Country has
advanced to her present happy eminence and great pros
perity, and the future is full of hope and of confidence.
The resolutions, I am informed, are from the pen of
your talented fellow citizen, Cal. Salisbury. They are,
indeed characteristic of that gentleman, energetic and
patriotic. I congratulate your county that these princi
ples have been in triumphantly sustained at the recent
election. •
I feel deeply grateful to my friends in Bradford, for
the flattering manner in which they speak of my hum
ble efforts, in the discharge of official duties. Their ap
probation will be an incentive to further efforts, and in
duce conduct, worthy their continued confidence. Re
member me kindly to my friend, Col. Salisbury.
With much esteem, I am Mir friend.

SOBED. SECOND THOLORT.-It has been suggested,
by a close observer of passing events, that the true posi
tion of the rival candidates in this county, for the Legis
lature, was not correctly considered, or spoken of in
drawing conclusions or calculating majorities. It is be
lieved that strict justice requires the comparison to be
drawn between the two opposing candidates in the east
ern part of the county, and the two in the western.
Mr. Piollet and 'Mr. Stevens both reside east of the
river, and Mr. Webb and Mr. Adams both west. Now
certainly, it is rational to conclude, that the voters of any
particular section of the county, would be inure likely to
be influenced by their preferences for, or prejudices
against persons residing in their immediate neighborhood,
than for those in a more distant or remote put. Ta
king this view we must necessarily consider the-majori
ty of Mr. Piolleboi'er Mr. Stevens, in the east, and lit
of Mr. Webb over Mr.' ; Adams in the west.
The result would then stand thus
Piollet,
Stevens,
Piollet's majority over Steven,
Webb,
Adams,
Webb's majority over Adams,
" A Dasirc Coos to Jusrissistrr."—Daniel R.
Doud, resides in Meinsbnrg, Tina . Co. Pa; and Daniel
nearly two years ago, come to the conclusion that be
would take the Bradford Reporter. Now this utuloubt
ly wu a wise procedure in Daniel, and shows that he
has discrimination, and having discrimination bad also
the Bradford Reporter. But Daniel, haring estimated
too highly his pecuniary, standing at that time, now
found himself unable—we say, unable, for we don't
think him unwilling—to raise the " needful," and
therefore refuses to take the Reporter longer or ever li-
quidate ; which would be on Daniel'. put a comm.
melon" bighly agreeable to us. However, as he is a
hopeful young lad, and a minor, and his father refuses
to have anything to do with the matter, we suppose we
shall have to forgive him the debt, hoping that the in.
+Mullen he has gathered from the Reporter, may be of
service to him.
John Green, the P. M. at Orwell informs t;ik, has left
that place. and this country, fisrgetthig what was due to

probably 5,000.
Tax Tex . Disci:restos .—We published in
our law , paper, by order of the Temperance Society of
this borough—a resolution for discussion at their next
meeting, which was to be held on Monday evehing last.
The notice of the meeting and the resolution were furn
ished to us by Gen. Patton in his own hand writing,
antkulthough we knew the society would not counte
nance for a moment, the sentiments contained in the
resolution, yet we had no reason to question the authen
ticity of the document, or to suppose that it meant any
thing more than its language purported. It seems, how
ever, that some one over the signature of Truth, in the
Argus of Saturday. denies the fact of such a resolution
having been considered before the society, or ordered for
discussion or publication or any thing else; and even
denounced the resolution, and its publication as an in
sult.
There is certainly a serious misunderstanding among
the members of the society, in regard to this resolution,
which, it seems to us, might'easily hare been explained
in the commencement, with moth less prejudice to the
Temperance cause, than will be produced by the course
adopted.
At the meeting on Monday evening last, the Society,
by a very decided vote, determined that the resolution was
not properly before them; and of consequence could net
be discussed. At this, Gem Patton takes exceptions, as
calling in question the correctness of his statement, and
the authority by which the publication was made—and
to vindicate himself, has furnished the certificates given
in another columd.
We regret exceedingly that any thing should have m
eowed to mar, in the least, the good understanding of
the members, or interrupt the progress of the society in
its laudable efforts: and most sincerely do we hope that
this will end all discourse of this kind, that harmony and
unity of action, may be the ruling principle with every
member : and that much good may be accomplished by
their unite efforts to restore the lost ones of the human
family.
Apti•Bent Fugitives.
[Copialanulence of the Oswego Republican.]
TOWANDA, Oct. 18, 1846
Yesterday Mr. Levalley, with one of the
constables of Troy township, determined to
beat the
.bush, as he watched it till he was
satisfied that he should find game. The scene
of operation was a wild and lonely mountain
in the south-western part of Bradford county.
Scudder the murderer of Steele, was the main
object of pursuit. Suffice it to say that while
they were searching the woods they unexpec
tedly found Elmer, one of the Delaware chiefs.
He was sitting upon a log quite alone. The
sheriff came up to him and pronounced him a
risoner. Upon this he darted away and be
•an to cry " murder" at the top of his voice.
This soon brought to his assistance some 15
persons, like him fugitives from Delaware,
armed with guns, pistols, pitchforks, and
spears. In short, the prisoner was rescued.
and the lives of the officers_ put in'the greatest
jeopardy.
Resistance would have been the height of
folly, as there were but two, and only one of
them armed, to contend with sixteen, all armed
and desperate; and they were on a wild moun
tain, miles from any settlement. The officers
remained on the mountain some time, and in
the mean while Elmer mounted a log and
briefly addressed his fellow fugitives. He
told them that this was their last resort; that
they had been hunted from plate to place like
deer; that the blood hounds of the law had
even scented their retreat in the mountain fast
ness of Pennsylvania; that if they returned to
Delaware, they were already doomed to a
eh . maul-death ; that if they remained where

• re, and abide the result: that they number

ter remaining some time, the officers left
their , risoners and returned to Towanda, glad
to escape with their lives.
HOW HAS WALL STREET Faugs.—The
Journal of Commerce of the oth ult., paints the
following gloomy picture of the affairs in Wall
steel: " We happened to be present yesterday.
when one of the most respectable brokers was
uttering his complaint of the miserable state of
things among the money changers. " Every
thing" said he. " is prosperous but the busi
ness of Wall street. People engaged in agri
culture are doing well ; in commerce and
manufactures, they are making money ; but in
Wall street, since the United States Bank wen t
down, every thing is so close ; the exchanges
are only one-eighth or one-sixteenth per cent.;
at hoine and abroad they are, just at par. so
there is,nothing to be made by them. and mo

MESSRS. EDITORS ;••••4 observe the following
communication in the last Bradford Argus :
Masan EDITOIS:-My attention has been called to
• notice (published.in the last Reporter) of a Resolution
purporting to hue been offered, at the lut Meeting of
the Tempenince Society of this Boro., and published by
order, thereof. Naar, I would ask the liberty of saying
through your columns, that the Resolution referred to,
was never offered or seconded, by any member of said
society. Nor was it published by any authority there
from, or from any of its officers. That the society never
voted to discuss thatresolution or any one similarr That
the society, being WAIIIIINGTOSIANS, regard the resolu
tion and its publication as an insult and my firm be
lief is that they will never discuss it. TRUTH.
As you are aware, I was the person who
!tended you the Resolution therein referred to
for publication. The following statements
from Mr. Brown , on, the President of the So
ciety, the Rev. Mr. Hotchkiss and Williatn
Watkins, Esq.. will show that the author of
the above communication was entirely mistaken
in all the material facts. I will not say that
he was wilfully mis.aken ; because, from cir
cumstanc-s, I am inclined to think the term
would not be applicable to him—and my sole
object being self-defence; I have uo disposition
to recriminate. In muddying the resolution,l
had necessarily to interline it, and I recollect
distinctly of the President permitting sue to
take it with the view of copying it and hand
ing itto the Printer. I can assure the author,
that neither Mr. Watkins who , drew up the
Resolution, or myself, had the remotest idea of
insulting the society by offerink it; and if I
had been permitted to proceed to the discus
sion, the moat fastidious Washingtonian would
have had no occasion to feel offended. I be
lieve the vote of the society, in refusing is
amend the journal, on the motion of Esq. Good

to a misunderstanding on the part of some, and
an anxiety on the part of others to ;get rid, for
the present, of a temporary excitement grow.

occasion to speak hereafter. when that excite

parties concerned. Respectfully.

your request, I hereinafter state some facts
which occured on the evening of the 3d inst.,
resolution was introduced by, your
self, for discussion at The following meeting of
the Society, as I think you stated, which was
negatived ; and because I thought its real ob

I moved a reconsideration of the vote, which

GEN. Petrov-..-DEAR SIR :---In answer to
your inquiry, I would state that at the meeting
of our Temperance Society a week ago last
evenin.. you offered the Resolution drawn up
by Mr. Watkins, after it was modified by you,
and ai President of the society, I put the ques
tion to the society whether it should be con
sidered for discussion, and the motion was ne
gatived. After some little conversation be
tween yourself and i others near me, in which
you gave us to understand that your in
offering the resolution: was merely to open a
field • for discussion, lio as to draw into the
meeting those who w re not in the habit of
attending our meetings The Rev. Mr. Hotch
kiss, on learning the r al object of introducing
the resolution, moved to reconsider the vote
negativing it, and. I thought there was a majori
ty of the members of the society voted in favor
of reconsidering it, and so I decided according
ly : and'my impression is that Mr. Watkins
and others suggested the propriety of publish
ing the resolution, and that I assented to it. ,

MR. PATTON—DEAR SlR:—Agreeable to
your request, I would state. that at a meeting
of the Temperance socilty of this place on the
3d ins(, a resolution was offered by you ac
crimpanied with a motion that the same lay
over for discussion till the next meeting of the
society. The motion was seconded and the
vote taken. A motion was then made arid a
vote taken for the reconsideration of the vote.
Some conversation then took place as to the
result of the vote, which resulted in the decis
ion of the President—that the resolution be the
subject of discussion for the next meeting.—
Considerable was said about the publication
of the resoltiOon among those near me and
within the hearing of the President; but what
the result was I am unable to state.—l think it
was understood by those near me that the re.
solution was for publication. It was certainly
so considered by me.

Editing a Newspaper.
Hear what the " National Intelligences,"
published by Messrs. Gales & Seaton, Wash
ington City, one of the most saleable and able
conducted papers in the country, says about
editing a newspaper :
Many people estimate the ability of a
newspaper and the industry and talents of its
editor by the quantity of editorial matter which
it contains. It is comparatively an easy task
for a frothy writee to pour out daily, columns
of words—words, upon any and all subjects.
His ideas may flow, .• weak, washy ever
lasting flood," and his comaind of language
may •enable him to string them together like
bunches of onions; and vet his paper may be
a meagre and poor concern. i But What is the
labor, the toil of such a man, 'who displays his
"leaded mailer" ever so largely. to that im
posed on the judicious, well7informed•editor,
who exercises his, vocation I with an hourly
consciousness of his responiiibilities and its
duties, and devotes °himself to the conduct of
his paper with the same care and assiduity that
a sensible lawyer bestows upon a suit, a hu
mane physician upon a patient, without regard
to show or display. Indeed, the mere writing
part of editing a paper, is but a small portion
of the work. The care. the time employed in
selecting is far more important. and the fact of
a good editor is'better shown by his svlections
than anything else, and That we all knoiv is
half the battle. But as we have said, an edi
tor ought to be estimated and his labors under
stood and appreciated, by fhe general conduct
of his paper—its tone—its temper—its uni
form, consistent course—its principles—its
aims—its manliness—its dignity—its proprie
ty„ To preserve these as they should be pre-•
served. is enough to occupy fully the time and.
attention of any man. If to this be added the
supervision of the newspaper establishment.
which most editors have to encounter, the won
der is, how they can find time or room to
write at' ll."
(;:}We find the ,folloWunt remarks, on the vacant
Judgeship. in the List Pennsylvania Reporter and Roils
Journal. The views of the writer are expressed with
vigos and perspicuity ; and will find a response in the
bosom of every Democratic son of Pennsylvania.
The sentiments accord with those given In our paper
last week.
For the Argus
•THB VACANT Juncinsine.—The vacancy on
the bench of the Supreme Court of the United
States, occasioned by the death of the lamented
HENRY BALDWLN. has yet to be supplied, and
has given rise to a great deal of speculation. as
to who is likely to be his successor. It is not
doubted that the selection will be made from
Pennsyliania. and as far as we are enlightened
on the subject, there are, in reality, but two
prominent aspirants-or rather, to he more
courteous, but two gentlemen whose friends
have placed them prominently before the Pre
sident. John AI. Read. Esq., of Philadelphia,
has many warm friends, who, aware of his
sound legal abilities, are anxious to see hint
elevated to the-highly honorable and responsi
ble situation alluded to. Mr. Read was nOmi
nated to the Senate by the late President Ty
ler, but his sound democracy did not accord
with the ultra aristocratic notions of Whiggery,
and hence, his nomination remained unacted
upon. 'file friends of Mr. Read have not
abandoned the hope—nay, they are sanguine—
that he will, again, he placed in nomination by
President Polk. On the other hand—the
triends of the Hon. Robert C. Grier, of Pitts
burg. are pushing hard for his nomination by
the President. Mr. Grier is. at least, equal in
point of legal learning, to his competitor, Mr.
Read ; and, we may as well add, either of these
gentlemen will honor the station quite as much
as the station will honor them. They are both
gentlemen of extensive legal learning, and let
"which of them subceed that may, the public
will he greatly the gainer, and the President,
in making the selection, runs no risk of being
charged with advancing incompetency to sub
serve political ends. It is to be presumed that,
beyond doubt, the President will select one of
these two gentlemen. It seems, however, for
some cause or other, (not exactly comprehend.
ed by any save the knowing ones, the gentle.
men who pull the wires to put in motion the
automatons.) that public attention has been di
rected to the probability—perhaps we had bet
ter say poseibility--of Mr. BUCHANAN'S being
-transferred to the vacant seat. Now, we do
not believe, that the President has the remotest
idea of. dispensing with Mr. Buchanan's ser
vices, or that the latter gentleman aspires to
the vacancy. Why, we ask, has the President
so mysteriously and suddenly lost confidence
in Mr. Buchanan, as to induce him to proffer
an honorable exile—for what reason? Has he
not proved himself competent to the duties of
the office he now holds ? Who will undertake
to aver that he has not ? Has he not been
faithfully the advocate of every measure of the
Administration, and will he not continue to be?
Certainly he has. and certainly he will. Why
then is the public harrassed with rumors of
transfer, and change, and uncertainty about his
continuance in the office of Secretary of State ?
Even the Washington Union, thinks it a mat
ter of moment enough, at least, to publish ar
ticles squinting toward Mr. Buchanan's trans
fer to the vacant Judgeship. This very fact
has a tendency to unsettle the public mind, as
to Mr. Buchanan's permanent tenure in the
office he now holds, and has a remote, if not a
direct tendency, to induce the belief, with ma
ny, that Mr. Buchanan could better subserve
the interest of the public with a gown drawn
around him, than in the plain unostentatious
dress of a citizen, devoted to the intricate art,
trade and mystery of diplomatic correspon
dence, and what not. We are among those
who have long and ardently admired the abili
ty, candor, and unflinching democracy of Mr.
Ritchie—in fact, we look "upon him as unsur
passed in integrity, and unequalled in princi
ple.
But we cannot refrain from mildly and
gently complaining, that his dealing in inuendo.
about the affair we now specially notice, is nut
in character with himself. There ought to be
no concealments, no roundabout way of unset
tling public confidence in a public officer. If
Mr. Buchanan is not the man the emergency
of the times requires, say so at once, and as
sign the reason. If it be a good one, the peo
ple will approve, if for the ulterior and selfish
ends, they will disapprove, and step between
him and ambitious demagogues, be they from
the South or North. t. Where there is so
much smoke, there must be some fire "—this
southern invitation to Mr. Buchanan to accept
of the black gown," means something, and
the best way to solve- the mystery, and put an
end to all doubt, is for Mr. Buchanan to au
thorize a positive denial of any hesitation on
his part, to reject the Judgeship if offered to
him. Let this be done, and the public mind
will, at once, be tranquilized, and public con
fidence in the harmonious action of the Pre
sident and his cabinet confirmed. As it is, it
cannot he dented, misgivings are abroad, and
those who look with a single eye to a faithful
and harmonious administration of the govern
ment, are unnecessarily agitated. The sooner
it is understood, beyond all cavil, that the cabi
net at Washington is an UNIT, the sooner will
concentrated action be permanently restored in
the ranks of the party, North, South, East and
West. Away with all 'appearance of creating
heart-burnings,. or of building up cliques and
cabals, at the expense of the harmony and sta
bility of the party.

TO THOSE WHO- USE PILLS
Of all the medicines put forth in the world, none have
been regarded with such gene-al favor by all who have
used them, as the so well known and efficacious medi
cine called -" Da. Blzren's "NeneVan Isnrax Vaorms,
atm Plus;'' and perhaps no medicine ever posaessed
in its peculiar combination, such mysterious power over
disease. A lady of the first respectability in this city:
(whose name we are permitted to give in private) in
formed us this week, that she had long suffered the most
violent headache, and that nothing had ever afforded her
relief like these Pills. She said that Dr. Huntington ad
vised her to try them, stating he knew them to be a good
medicine. This case is not uncommon. Physicians do
recommend them, and Dr. 8. has the proud satisfaction
of being permitted to refer to more than one high in the
pmfession. These Pills, besides theirgreatefficacy, have
a taste as pleasant as a sugar plum, being waled with
sugar, (a thing unheard of in the world, until Dr. Smith
made thpm, after more than a year's trial and great ex
pense.) The public are informed that these Pills are
not of the mushroom class, made of any- thing merely
to sail for a short time, as they are made of the purest
materials, and they will bear the scrutiny of either Phy
sician or Chemist. The public ought to remember that
no Sugar Coated Pills can be relied upon unless the
signature of G. Benin Smith, M. D., the sole inventor, j
is upon the side of every box, abio beware of counterfeits.
This is important, as miserable medicine may be envel
oped in sugar.

TO THOSE WHOSE OCCUPATIONS TEND
TO PRODUCE OR AGGRAVATE DISEASES.—
This class of individuals is very numerous. They are
those who work in an unhealthy atmosphere. Printers,
workmen in feather stores, stone. cutters, bakers, white
lead mannfacturers, are all more or less subject to dis
ease according to their strength of constitution. The
only method to prevent disease, is the occasional use of
a medicine which abstracts from the circulation all dele
terious humors, and expels them by the bowels. Ton
ics in any form are injurious, as they only put off the
evil day to make it more fatal. The use of Brandreth's
Pills will insure health, because they take>all impure
matters out of the blood, and the body is not weakened
but strengthened by their operation, for these valuable
Pills do not force, but they assist nature, and are not op
posed, but harmonize with her.
