Gen. Packer's Declination. T;;:n,Y or nit: CHAIRMAN* OF TIIF. COMMITTER. Pmi.ADICI.rniA, Jul/zoth, 1857. Hon. WM. F. PACKER : Dear Sir:— 1 liuve laid before the State j Committee the letter signed 1). Wilinot, dated the 14th instant, and am authorized to say to you that in the opiniou of tfie Committee you ought not to accede to the proposition it con tains. The reasons for this opinion I wiil pro- i eeed briefly to state : i The slavery question, which Is probabloyour opponent proposes to discuss, has very recent- • ly been thoroughly considered and passed upon ! by the people of the Commonwealth. The ; late Presidential canvass involved the whole ! subject so far as it was proper for considera tion by our people, and we can perceive no utility iu its re discussion at this time ; nor any other good reason for re-opening debate upon it. The position of our party is will un derstood and requires no vindication, at least by any extraordinary proceeding like that pro posed. A joint canvass by candidates for the Gub ernatorial office has never been conducted in this State, nor, I believe, in any other North ern one, and may well be questioned on grounds of public policy. If the practice be once adop ted, it will doubtless continue, and party nom inations be uniformly made with reference to it. No party will venture to select a candidate for this office who is not qualified for the stump j and aptitude for debate will hence come to be ; prefered to administrative ability. In short,the ! result will bo to confine nominations to the class of talkers, and to exclude all others. A rule of party action which would prevent such mcu as Benjamin Franklin, Simon Snyder and i Francis R. Shank from filling the Executive chair of this State, must be a bad one, and to be denounced rather that adopted. We believe there is a considerable public opinion against the propriety of the Executive Candidates appearing at all before popular meetings to solicit votes. This was first prac ticed by Wm. F. Johnson, in 1848, and has been to some extent followed by Candidates since. The good results of it are not obvious. It did not originate with the Democratic party nor lias it ever received any formal, popnkr or party sanction. It may therefore be consider d au open question in future practice,, and at all events, as forming no part of the duty of a candidate imposed upon him bv his nomination. While your opponent holds the office of President Judge, there is a special objection to the acceptance of his project. The propri ety of law judges taking part in political meet ing is denied by our party and is opposed by sound public opinion. By no act whatever ought we to sanction, or become participants in a prostitution of the judicial character. Nor will a resignation now made altogether re move this objection. Your opponent lias inten tionally held his office until within 3 months of the election, (rendering it impossible to elect n s ieccssor the present year,! and if a resigna tion should not take place, it would obviously be with the intention of resuming the office af ter a defeat for the post to which lie aspired. The proposed mode of conducting campaigns may possibly be suited to some of the South ern ami South-western States, where it has bcet> practiced, and where population and political conditions differ from ours ; but its introduc tion here would be against solid objections,and without any conceivable good. It is therefore, a proposed " Southern aggression" upon the practices and politics of parties in Pennsyl vania, which cannot be at all accepted or per mitted. It is well that the question has arisen when we have a candidate capable and lit for any discussion before the people, and when the de cision can be placed, without embarrassment, upon public grounds which control it. I am, ver\ respectfully, your obedient servant. C. R. BUCK A LEW, Chairman. A farther siiji'einent to "An Art relating to co lntics and townships, and county and township officers."

In proceedings to erect a new township out of parts of two or more townships in this commonwealth, it shall be the duty of the court of quarter sessions of the proper county, when a return has been made, by commission ers appointed under the provisions of the aet to which this is a supplement, favorable to the erection of a new township, to order a vote of the qualified electors of the township from which the largest number of taxables to be embraced in the proposed new township is to taken, and also of the qualified electors out side of such township, residing within the bounds of the proposed new township, to be taken on question of the erection of a new township. • f>.

WINTHESTETI, Yn., Wednesday, July 22, 1557. Toft he EdUur of the South : DEAR SIR : In your paper of Monday !ast> in an article headed " Walker's Usurpation,' I observe the following paragraph : " lUit wo fire that HrsThfk uN,_Anil othw distinguished Southern Senators, in denate <>n the Xebr.i.-- ka-Kausas bill, expressed the same opinion, that Kansas must be a tree State, ,Vc."' I cannot undertake to say wTiat opinions may have oeen expressed by iny honored col- j league, or by other Senators from the South, in reference to the probable condition of Kan sas, though from a, general knowledge of their views in regard to that Territory, L should not doubt that any opinions so expressed, would have reference to circumstances and contingen geneies necessarily qualifying them. To avoid rniscostruction, however, I think it proper to say that I never expressed the opinion thus ascribed to me, because I never entertained it. At the time the law passed, organizing the Territorial Government, there were few with whom 1 conversed who - did not believe tfiat the future State would take its place with those recognizing and cherishing the condition of African Slavery. There was at that time certainly every reason to believe why this sotild be so, and none why should it not. The State ot Missouri, bordering on its eastern frontier, was a slave-holding State ; holding | at that time nearly a hundred thousand slaves, ; and these were chiefly held in border comities. The State of Arkansas, adjacent to thcTer • ritory, on the south, was likewis'c a slavehol ! ding State. The soil and climate of Kansas ! were well adapted to those valuable products, i chiefly hemp and tobacco, which gave value to ! -lave labor in Missouri. The proximity of its population, with the attractions of new, fertile, and cheap land, I believe would lead the slave holders in Missouri to diffuse themselves speed ilv over Kansas, and the prohibitory line of |B6 degs. and 30 inin. being obliterated, there was no reason why they should not. 1 had no fear of fair competition in such appropriation .of the Territory from any quarter. Unfair competition I did not look to. M hat may be the 1 result as to the condition of Kansas, not withstanding the extraordinary and unscrupu lous efforts of Northern abolitionists to force a population there, I cannot undertake to say. Nor will I allude in this place to the new and unexpected aspect now exhibited to affairs in i thatjterritory, with so much propriety reprehen ded by the columns of the South. Whatever may be the information of others, I certainly am not sufficiently informed of the existing state of things in Kansas to form a clear opin -1 ion, one way ur the other : yet 1 will .venture to say this much that if African slavery lie ul timately excluded from Kansas, it will be ef fected by the numeral force of organized ma jorities, operating against the usual laws which govern emigration, and wiil present a new and most instructive lesson to the South ern States. • Ycrv respect full v, I am, yours &<•., Ac. J. M. MASON. THAT gallant little paper, the York lieyub- Horn, is doing a noble work in our Pennsylva nia Egypt—that portion of our counties lying alongside of the border ot a slave state and east of the Allcghenies It speaks out boldly earnestly, and with decided effect. At tlie conclusion of a long article, which is written with remarkable ability, it holds the following language concerning the Northern part of the State, and the extraordinary influ . ence which Mr. Wilmot has exercised in that region. " Look at Northern Pennsylvania, how she lias shaken oil' the shackels of party to stand by her own noble son. Look at Bradford, ; ; Susquehanna and Tioga—his own District— where Locofocoism counted majorities by thou sands, and the opponents of slavery extension now count their five thousands and more ! Who shall say that the love of, and sympathy with, noble and worthy actions has wholly died out and expired in the face of such a pic ture of popular intelligence and self-emancipa j tion from party thrnhiom and degradation as ! that District exhibits-? We have rto feeling in our hearts which beats in tunc to the same mighty impulses which actuate our Northern fellow citizens ? Are we here wholly inseiisi i ble to the same noble emotions ? Are our ears so stopued with cotton that wc cannot hear? Are our mouths so filled with dough that we cannot speak ? Are our eyes so blear . cd and dim with the rheum of advancing do tage that we tremble before every blast from | the South, and can no longer bear to look upon the bright and shining example of a ; man who has dared to defy the denunciations of slavery, and stand unshaken by t'.ie deser tion of his own party, in the sacred cause of Human Liberty, and the White Man's right to I carry his free labor into all the domains of this Union, without being compelled to compete in work with the negro slave ! Shame on our manhood, if it is so ; but we don't believe it. We have a prouder estimate of the patriotism i and love of freedom of our fellow-citizens.— The name of WII MOT is a rallying point for every man who possesses a generous enthusi asm of soul, and who, while he admires the | martyr-spirit of primitive Christendom, can ap preciate the same spirit of self-sacrifice for the i sake of a great principle exhibited in his own age by a citizen of his o vn commonwealth.— ■ The election of D.vvm WicMur on such an issue will crown Pennsylvania with imperishable glory and honor." i Rn.r.oiT xor CAUUIIT. — The Towanda and 1 some other papers, a few weeks ago gave eur raey to tlie report that Rulloff had been seen near Athens, and pursued. We can inform our readers that the man seen has been caught, and while we write lie is lying in our County Jail. ILis name is F. S. Marsh. He belongs at Otsego County, and had been imprisoned for some petty matter for 00 days, but finding ! that the days included the nights also, he broke jail some time ago and has been wandering i about since.

J ARSES VEECH, of Payette County. Pi>KsnEST J unci:.—Gov; Pollock lias ap pointed I).vim's BRU.ocK of this county, Presi dent Judge of this judicial district, in place of lion. J). W!LMOT, resigned. Gen. BI 1.1.0CK is the oldest member of the j bar in this county, and enjoys in a high de- I grce the confidence and resect of the people. TSie change in the tone of the "Dead Rabbit" press, since Gen. PACKER'S declina tion, is decidedly amusing. Their vauntiugs and braggtulocias have given place to d. j ;.si tions upon the impropriety of a joint . and the usage and customs of the democratic party. A few Weeks agd and tlie press of that party without exception, favored the plan of a joint canvass, and Were evidently striving to make Wiuior the challenging, instead of the challenged, party. They grew valiant • with their boastings of the ability and eloquence of their standard-bearer ; they represented him as silencing; and overthrowing the Pluck-Re publican candidate, and indulged to their hearts content in an imaginary brilliant victory. Mr. WII.MOT, being neither moved nor de terred by these boastings and exaggerations, and having waited until he was satisfied that Gen. PACKER wonhl not fulfil! the promises of him-clf and friends to invite the discussion, ex tended to his opposing candidate the invita tion which lias been published. As Mr. PACK ER'S committee has decided that he ruimt not be allowed to meet Mr. WU.MOT, it now be- coiues necessary for those papers which a few weeks before were valiant, to take back their boastings and threats and invent excuses for the cowardice and pusillanimity of their candi date and his keepers. We have a specimen now before us, which is a fair sample of the class. It is contained iu the Allcntmrn Dcmn cr it. The editor in his paper of July 2d, speaking of an assertion made bv acotempo rary that such a challenge lias been made in dulges iu the following harmless gasconade, italics and all Nov. we pronounce the whole thins: a sheer fabrication —a till chood got ui) on the brag-game principle ; and as sert further, that (Sen. Packer never received rui;/ chal lenge whatever from Mr. W'ihnot; that Wilmot never Kent him one; and thirdly, that it the latter would send a challenge to di cuss the ijucstions involved in the approach ing i-ampaign, before the people, Gen. Packer will prompt l\j urrept. it. In the meantime, the challenge having been sent, and declined notwithstanding the positive assurance from the Dew*rat that it would bo promptly accepted, that paper finds it necess ary to change its tune. Now witness what a dignified position it takes. We extract from the issue of August f>, only two weeks after the brave display witnessed above : The letter of Mr. UTCK AI.EW. Chairman of the Commit tee, -peaks the sentiments nut only of the entire Com mittee, hut we think of every man who would avoid the the dire results that might flow from such a course. The 1 eniocratio party does not fee! inclined to ignore its own time-honored usages, nor to detract from the proud digni ty she lias maintained ever since her origin, by asking lier candidates fur Gubernatorial honors to descend to the level of a township constable, by traversing the State and personally soliciting votes. The reader should bear in mind that Gen. PACKER is already advertised to address public meetings ! FOREIGN NEWS. —By the arrival of the In fill at (Quebec from Liverpool, Sunday, we have four days later intelligence from Europe. The most important of the news is that which relates to China and India. The British forc es had destroyed the Chinese fleet, and Canton was in the power of the English. There had been an advance iu tea in consequence. The news from India is not satisfactory for Gn a' Brittain. Delhi still remains in the h i 1 • the mutineers, and the mutiny among 1 Ben gal troops was spreading. There was a fall iu Consuls, iu consequence. The t x King of Oudc, with some of his ministry, had been ar rested for having instigated the rebellion. The markets in England for American produce, were steady. The frigates ' this fsection transacted all jfhefV "buMoss In Phila deljdHa. "-The building.of (he Kfie Canal,- find its branches, however, gradually drew this trade, to Mew- York, as being more aeeessilile, until the merchants of the County, with scarce ly a single exception, had been diverted from Philadelphia and it had become almost a strange place. . The coii/gructkm of the North Branch Canal, and tlni opiUiiifg-'of a direct Rnllfoaif crnrmrrmncatTrm by the buihtinrot and Khifira 1 tail road haw again chang ed the facilities of communication, and Phila delphia is now more accessible than New-Yolk to a large portion of Bradford. Already our merchants are turning their at tention to Philadelphia as a fnaihet for pur chasing their supplies, although the business men of that city, apparently have come to consider Northern Pennsylvania as a terra in ngnita, whose custom was not worth striving for. We hail this advertisement as an evi dence that the Philudclphians are now awak ening to a sense of the wealth of the Nor thern counties, and are determined to contest for its trade with New-York. There is certainly no reason why Philadel phia should not enjoy whatever advantages there may be in the business of this region.— We believe that those of our merchants, who have, as a mutter of curiosity, visited Phila delphia, conuder it a better place to buy in, than New-York. For many articles, it is de cidedly preferable, as it has now become the greatest manufacturing mart in the country, and supplies to the trade in New-York, many of the articles in most demand iu this region, which passing through many hands, of course . .. Increased in price before they reach us. THE IMI'ENIIN>: CRISIS OF THE SOUTH."— This is tlie title of a work just issued by Bur dick Brothers of New York, which is now at tracting an unusual* share of attention. It is from the pen of ITIMON ROWAN* ILEI.M;, of North Caroliuia, and the author has collected in a volume of some four hundred pages, the the most compact and irresistible array of facts and arguments to prove tlie impolicy of shi very thai we remember to ha ve encountered. lie lias here collected a body of facts and statistics against the economy, which seem to us quite as irresistible as Newton's argument to prove the universality and terms of the law of gravitation. We have never seen the fuels arrayed with so much jiower. The statistics embraced iu this work are overwhelming iu their demonstration of the corroding and wasting influence of Slavery, j and yet they are arranged and presented in such manner as to be lively and interesting in stead of dry and prosy. The agent for this County, E. J. SKIBERT, will give onr citizens an opportunity of procur ing this work, which we recommend them to embrace, as they will find it both valuable and interesting. , w SEIOE OF LAWRENCE RAISED. — Gov. Walk er, who found it easier to invent excuses for marching against Lawrence, than for raising the seige, has finally hit upon a scheme to extricate himself from the dilemma. He dis patched himself a messenger to Fort Ililey, and the courier came back to Walker with despatches, stating that the fort was threat- ened by Indians, and asking aid of Walker, whereupon he struck his tents and raised the scige of Lawrence. The whole thing is under stood as a ruse on the part of WALKF.R to withdraw gracefully from Lawrence. THE A TRUST ELECTIONS. —The August elec tions, being in the slnveholding Stales, have resulted, of course, in a clean sweep for the Democracy. In Missouri, Koi.uxs (emancipa tionist) gains largely over Fillmore's vote, but STEWART (Dem.) is probably elected. Mr. JACOBS, the Assistant Superinten dent of the Barclay It. R., was severely injur ed one day last week, his foot being caught be tween the bumper of a coal car and the safe ty car on the inclined plane, and severely crushed. THE CAMPAIGN OPENED.—A large and Very enthusiastic meeting of the friends of WILMOT was held at Bloondield, the county seat of Per ry, on the od day August. There were persons present from every election district in the county. W. W. DICKENSON presided, assisted by no less than fifty vice-presidents. The meeting was addressed at length by the lion. WILLIAM D. KKU.KY, of Philad'a, Vlie speech was lengthy and able, and was received with < ' ie.il. After he closed, Mr. 15AF.11, the •a io.-ye blacksmith, followed him. The meet g : assed strong resolntions, indorsing the I' :rrisbtirgh platform and nominations.— Among the resolutions passed was the follow ing, which we commend most earnestly to the attention of the Ilemocractic press : " Resolved, That the refusal of the Democrat ic candidate for Governor, WM. F. PACKER, to accept the challenge of DAVID WII.MOT to dis cuss before the people the questions involved in the present campaign, is the best evidence that their candidate is either ashamed of his princi ples, or is afraid to advocate and defend them and for that course the people are ashamed to vote for liim, or to trnst him with power." NATHAN NICOLS, of Walton,an inmate of the Delaware County Poor House, committed sui cide early Tuesday morning, by hanging him self with a cord thrown over a rafter, in a shed a little distance from the house. Mr Nich olas was sent to the County Ilonsc about a year ago, ou account of his insanity. He went deliberately to work, for after passing the cord over the rafter, lie put pieces of paper folded up, so that the corners of the rafter should not cut or wear the cord. (From the X. V.
