• .• (Lou.
As the elections to be held during 'boom
ing year are of more than ordinary ,F.irupor
tanee, it iqroper that the public should
note well the movements of parties, that they
may be batter prepared to take part in deci
ding "the contest Aderbtandingly. -County
Conventions are the first step towards shaping
the campaign. This is why we review theop
position.convention Of last week, as we prom
ised, and not because there was -anything Of
unusual impOrtance abotit it. The resolu
tion:4, sod speeches of Wilmot and JasSup,
are :he only matters we shall notice
First we shall,cousider . - T -
THE RESOLUTIONS.
They pretend that they will stand by the
tompromisesof the constitution,but they know
very well that their party is bitterly hostrle
to,thri Fugitive Slave Liw, and other consti
tutional requiremer4s ; 'denying the right of
the government or' the people, to enforce
them. • ' ,
Their 'disclaimer of a right to interfere with
..State . slavery is idle, when the party defends
John Brown for his raid. ' s
, The_charge =that the government squanders
public money' and property, is an unsupport
ed and unfounded assertion,and we challenge
the production of any evidence to prove it. '
Their windy attempt tofix the responsibility
of the failure of Congress to 'organize, upon
the Democrats, is to silly too be entertained.
We advise the-authors to read the reports of
the House ; they will then learn the truth of
the matter—that (heir own party is alone re
sponsible.- They will learn that after a *speak
er had been . virtually sleeted," Republican'?
members, by a resort to actual fraud, defeat- .
ed the expressed will of the majotity. As
they deny the-responsibility of the Harper's
Ferry iaidove advise them to not: forget that
the Helper book contains that doctrine,eand
that it is the official text book of their party.
To charge it upon others only amounts to the
cry of "stop-tblef.'! - '
We, too, advise the people of this county
to separate themselves from the disunion par-.
ty ; and the official avowal of the "Republi
can" party that they are• determined to,
abolish slavery immediately, and by violence,,
if necessary, is sufficient evidence that they
are the disunionistq.
• In endorsing Giow, they go to the whole
extent of the radical abolition, disunion, - pro-
gramme.. *Grow has signed an endorsement
of the following sonfiments among others ....
-That the people of the North have hitherto
been remiss-inltheir duties,sbecause they have
been mere free-soilers, when. they ought, to
have interfered direct with 'slavery. That "no
. man can be ajtrue patriot without first be
coming an abolitionist." "That not! to be an
abolitionist is to be a wilful and diabolical .
inatrumebt of the De s vil." According to Grow,
the authors of -those 'Republican" resolutions
are either abolitionists or chips' of Satan.--;
Which are you gents 1 . .
Next: we shall consider , -
WILMOrS SPEECH.
This man, t.i l as, in violation of his solemn
pledge of honor, sd often trespassed upon jut
dicial dignity by indulging in bitter partizan
harangues from the bench, that his misrep:
resentativis and false logic are pretty famil
iar to lhe public, and we shall notice but few
of his assertions : .
Ie spoke of Idissuuri being admitted under
th 'orripromise of 1820. This is an error,
ishich o'o intelligent publiespeaker can truth-
fully !nuke.' ]Missouri was not admitted until l
- the next year the NG - rth. resisting her ad
raisSleu, and itl was not tiitil Henry Clay, 1
wishing to end late ccututverF:y,Otreyed a new
and special coMpronaise,' that the State -was
. finally admitted, under hut/Mist:in and un-
just terms. This was the first violation of
the Compromise of 1820, and it came from
the North. • 1 , - •
The Compiomise of 1)850, Wilmot dodged
I—just as be did on its passage.. lie admitted
that it gave peace to. the country ; and that
he was not suited with it ; but he forgot (1)
to mention that he - cowardly ran away from
his seat, not dating to vote for or againstjt.
. He denied' that ';be ever made a speech on this
question after. the passage of the compromise
measureiuntil 1854. He can not have for
s gotten that he came home from -Congress
(dodging a vote on the bill), to take , the
stump for re-election, and thatl, this subject
s-as,his hobby. I This fact is f • familiar to the
.. • -
public. 1 .
•
Ile alleged that the Nebraska bill was
forced ihrongh Congress 1,,y bribery, but gave
no proof of it. 'He however hinted that be
cause the es.peC4s of the government increas
ed that year, (and they necessarily do every
yeas), there miffht have been bribery resorted
'to.' But if be will take the 'appropriation
bills, and point out where at item . was
uoq
auat or ext!svagant, we will thew feel called .
upon to consider whether his charge can be
true. The practice of alleging that there can
be corruption concealed in appropriation
bill!, is too shallow to deceive .any thinking
I
man. Sha h bills are scanned and supported
by bptir parties, and every dollar is account
ed for; and to -allege bribery, is to implicate
both friends and foes of the administration
•
He alleged that this.paper was bribed by
the govrotnent in 1854. • We did not then
, publish it, but we say Wilmot knows• the
• charge to be unfounded. There Was no pat
• ronage given to Ana paper at that time, nor
at any other that could;influencti" it. We
. bought the office in 1(58, and have ever ad
,catect the same doctTines we iicpbraced
when ea) controversy arose in 1854.
Be alleged, that thepeitiocratic party prom
' iaed, in 1858, that James Buchanan would
"make Kansas a ' ete State.' No such prom
las was any where given. On the contrary,:
out party dented' i thht the°President 'cotdd .

id promise that Suchanan would, as far as
4t was in his power, aid in givingito Kansas

tyros no less certain then, than now, Kansas

. 'JESSUP'S SPEECH.
!Before coming to the speech, we wish* to
refer to Jessup in, past years, in order to show,
thh weak, vascilatiug material of which he is
made, politically.

'Several years
,ago, while be was. the Presi
den Judge of this Judicial District, (of.which
Lijzerne county was a part), one Gildersleeve,
anlabelitionist of Wilkes. Barre,-was "rode on
a rail," 6m., by a "mob.". ,The parties were
held . to 'for e trial, and • Jessup -left home

The points in our resolutions whichlessup
so fitely assaulted with the"lie" were where
they stated that the Republican party knew
no pjnciples but- hostility, to the Democratic
part and the South. These allegations are
ao eideßtly true that itey need no defence.
The hole history of "Republicanism" shows
that r,t, bas ever studied bow to oppose us;

these Pills hvve invariably proved .st certain and
speedy - remedy. A single trier will place the-
Life Pills beyond the reach of competition in the.
estimation of every patient. , ' ,
Dr.' Alefrat's Phothix Bitters will be, found
equally 'efficacious Wall cases of nervous. debility,
