"THE 1'E(71 4 E13 DISTRICT."
This is the name given to the XIV. Con-
Erressional District of Penn syl'3-ani4 tirlach)
com Prise s. the counties of Tioga, Bradford
I arid Susquehanna. ‹ lt is so termed, owing
to tfte people being infected;with a sort I
of politmal mania ,4)f a dark character, aid
of the large majorities rtluj republicans
poll over their opponents. The great cen
tral or controlling power of the party is
conceded to be invested in Judge Wilmot.
—the "power behind - the throne"-,from
whence-eminates thti edicts 'Of the party,
and dictates who are to be the recipients
of "political favors." 'The politicians he
cares nothing for,provided they do not
carry into eflect his _imperial mandates."
,They look - upon him as a dtimi-god•:—the
dispenser of offices, and hi wiiiise keeping
their political orthodoxy The Herald,
a paper published where -Judge Wilmot,
resides, says Wilmot is not a man . to
I be trifled with by subordinates y he breaks
over all rules of politiCal warfare -to :a.e
complish his purposes. His majority the
!'tion have all . file offices to theniselyes
when they so choose. The three-thousand
Whigs in the party do net - ,4reciate, the
idea of having everybody and everything
.
under the power, and subjct, ..to the or,
ders of the Wilmot- clique. I They think
their numbers and respectability- entitle
them to some consideration at the hands
of those who they aid so materially to po
sition. Mr. Wilmot and IN -men think
different."
,
In-this comity, the people are beginniit
to inyestigatc the matter of official inter
ferenee by outsiders. As toTcongression
al. "'moors," the question has been raised,
whether such a candidate is . ' acceptable to
the author of the Wilmot proviso! . If
such is the fact, what is the use of the par-1
ty going through the farce ofMaking nom
inations, if it has been so deereed by its
great ; leader l? Hon. G. A.. Grow Um]
pet protege of Judge Wilmot; and baS by 1
partyintrigue always succeeded iii fmcing
him into a nomination for Cohgress, after
'the for Mer lias.again and again repeatedly
declared that, le would withdraw tin
the contest. and let Tioga have the honor I
of representing, the people of this •district.]
There are now two gentlemen,• aspirants.,
for the nomination •—men=eit her of tlienti
the equal' of Mr. tiro*, in point of talents
and abilities; but it is said that, the' iat
has gon'e firth t?oin the head. quarters of
the party, and that. Tioga must again lie ,
.humbled and prostrated - for another two
years. When the nominations are miade
by the party for congressional and. county
offices, we expect the: party Will he bar-
monions,L-yery ! At this time, it is evi-•
dent that a majority -of the pfeople of TiO
ga are heartily\ siek'of the
."irrepressible
contlFet" doctrines of therepliblican party,
and will.sustain, in the Campaign before
I us, those great and enduring-principles of
tion-intervention: opoirxhich the
_stun*
ard bearer of the National:DemocriVic
party, will, if elected, faittfuily carry out.
1 We have the cheering assurance, from
gentlemen residing, in different parts of
the county; Iliat.a large. imniber of, men
