Ppposition,
The Morning Post of yesterday asks us to.pub
lishMr. Hampton's renunciation of Masonry•. We
had intended doing so, but now that an enemy de.
sands it; we are disposed to ask cui bans? But
we inane an offer. We will publish all that the
Post has published about Mr..ilampteasrenunciat
say four columns; all the Post bus published about
Mrjraimpton's Pee in the Braddce case, say six
columns; " and, the whole of Mr. M'Candless - Eulo
gy on Jackson, say four columns—in all, fourteen
columns of the Post's most efficacious electioneer
ing matter, if that paper \Vitt publish our one era
de on Mr. M'Candless' Consistency, making - little
over half a column, which appeared in the Com
mercial Jetannl of Thursday morning, Oct. Bth. -
There is an offer of odds, twenty to one! What
says the editor,—is it a bargain We are pirticu
larlY desirous to follow up the Post's eulogy with
a dressing of Jackson by the same author! -
- . [Journal, of yesterday.
0:11...-Is soon as we read the above article in the
Journaloxe called upon the editor, (taking a friend
with us,) and agreed to his,proposition therein set
set :forth, to th'e fullest extent; but: Mr. Riddle
BACKED OUT, and said we 'might publish it to lhe
world with his entire consent:
The Candidates for Congress.
We would invite our readers to a calm coinpari
sou ,Of - the claims of the gentlemen who have been I
put 'forth as candidates for Representative by the I
Whig and the Democratic parties. It shall be our
endeaVor, in: what little we have to say, to preserve
each a tone as will not give offence to the preju
dices enymember of either party.
• The Democrats have presented WrLsox M'CA an-
Esq. In saying that Mr. 31 - C. is competent
;Ind 'deserving, we but accord a cold acknowredg-
went Of his worth, which might be given to almost
any candidate. But we would ask his most vehe- I
merit opponent, if our county could produce a roan
_more eminently qualified to fill the responsible of.
ftce ifor which his friends have offered him. We
mean no disparagement to the many talented men
to tie - found in our community, when we say, that
if aballot were resorted to, at which all our citi
zens Would vote, unbiassed by party feeling, for
the.persOn best calculateetoreptesent - this disiriet
in Congreis; Col. .M . CANnalsvoulti have n ma
jority over all. His brllliant success at the liar
6,0 the best proof of. his capacity Is a debater,
and of thattintiringindustry Which tiviil he requir,
ed c l if any man who - ;vuld deb:ly and faithfully
represent this district.
So much for the competency of Mr. .M . C.i:;ar.sss
—and is there- any necessity to attempt to show
that one who enjoys such unbounded personal po
pularity, as he is known to possess, must be a man
of iurpassing private worth? .Go out into out
streets; or through our county, and enquire of any
whi are acquainted with Mr. nestcnsass,—(ond
whci does not knoW him!)—and while he, perhaps,
may tell you that . he will vote against . Mr..M*C.,
he sti:l freely'say that ho is infinitely preferable to
HiLityron. -
Now let us enquire who - and what the man is
wio the whigsaskthe people of Allegheny county
- to elect to congress. Mr. MOSES HAsirrox
migrated tothis county a few years ago to try his
fortUne in lasts and- politics. By assiduity and
Careful devotion to these objects, which left,birn
time for nothing else, he has succeeded very well
indeed. - He has given his very meagre talents ao
cloiely to. his business; that he has no leisure
for any matter of public concern. You do not hear
of his devoting,either time or money to any object
in which thacommunity were interested, or labor
ingin any vocation with disinterested zeal for the
- public good. We learn out of view the charges
that have been brought against him during the
canvass, and merely , wish, as we said 'at first, to
con pare him with his opponent on other grounds.
It is known that Mi. McC.snDLESS spent weeks,
if not months, at Harrishurgh, last winter, fighting
earnestly for the. "Right of Way." Did Mr.
11.4okrrON contribute a single dollar or a single lose
to this object of pervading public interest? If any
man known that Mr. Ilsiarros gave either labor,
time or money to this or any other great public
purPose, let him tell of it every where.
Sppposing a citizen were to go to Washington ,
On business or pleasure, which of these gentlemen
would he rather ask for the favors or the comm.
el* that members at the Capitol are always re
quired to show to their constituents? Would not
every man prefer calling on the freehearted, open.
hinded MCCAsrni,Ess, who has a friendly and a
synipatbising ear for all? And how would any
oneltake pleasure in calling on the cold, calcula
ting ilixrror, whose icy and formal demeanor
would chill to death anything like good'fellowehip,
or Cordiality.
}tut we think we hear some inveterate Whig
saying,:" We know McCaig BLESS is a vhole•souled,
hearty, clever fellow, that every body knows and
every body. likes, but then—but then—he is not
foy , 41e Tariff:" Is that your objection, gentlemen?
Let us talk of that a little. We allege, lvithout
fear: of contradiction, that there is not a man of
artyiparty in this county, or in this country, who
has - :given more sincere proofs of devotion to the
Tariff policy, than WlLsozr McCasnr;ass. He
has always been the. fearless and unflinchivg chant
pion of Pennsylvania interests; and last winter
while HA:tryrozi was at home making money, Mr.
Mr.C.K.vni.Ess was - at Washington spending- money
and ;time in, hattliitg for his native State. No man
'can 1 . truthfully impugn the sincerity of Col. -Mc.
Csaq l ntE.s . s as a friend of the Tariff. 'lt is idle to
question his aif.lity to do as - much, at least, as any
Maai can do for our local interests. Why, what
could the partyNaporing'of I7fvST4 Hampioneffect?
===2==
Nothing, absolutely nothing, While every candid
man must admit thit Cal. 111CPANDLEBEI could_ac
complish much by a pmdent and judicious course,
and the influence he is known to possess over those
whe have coiitrol of the Stihjecf.
We submit this brief comparison in the earnest
hope that our Whig friends will read and ponder on
what it sets.fortli. .
More Cowardly Insinuattons.
Knaves and hypocrites alwaysendeavor to blast
the reputation of their fellow beings by base insin
uation and cowardly inuerido.—Like the aSsassin
they stab in the dark—like the thief , they' , corer
their 'depredations - by the mantle of night. We
have.said not a word Sgainit the private character
of a Single man- on the Whig and Antirriasonic
Tieket;—we have never alluded to them in their so
cial relations. No—God forbid that we shOuld be
so forgetful of all the endearing ties of hurriau_ na
ture, as to resort to such detestable weaponS ; to ru
in the - character and disturb the peace of a single
living being. We have spoken' freely of the pub
and official acts of the opposition can
didates, and it was . our right—it was our diity—to
do so. 'But such has not been the course rof the
Editor of the Gazette. • This whited ulnae*, with
all the blackness of his depraved heart, in ,his pa
per of yesterday, republishes his wicked insinua
tion; and because we alluded to it, be cries out
with a hypocritical leer, "the shoe pinches." See
bow the Gazelle uses the stiletto in the dark:
- "We mention no names. We leave you to make
the selection for yourselves. If you resolve by
your vote not to encourage men of immoral char.. ;
acter, of intemperate habits; if you resolve Not to
vote so as to encourage gambling, the profanation
of the Holy SabbathbY visiting Grog Shops, Pro
fane Snearing, gross immorality, the violation of
the. most sacred ties, then it becomes your most
solemn duty to make strict inquiry concerning the
mord as well as the political character of the can
didates presented for your suffrages."
In the iiame of common sense, What does all this
mean? Is it intended as a slash at the federal can
didates? No! No! The editor's fifteen censori
ous masters would never have permitted such a
thing as that. Is it all "sound and fury signifying
nothing ?" Or does the etlitor intend by this covert
means to attack the democratic candidates? If
thiS is his object let him come out openly and man
fully, mention names, and make his charge direct!
Then we will be prepared to meet him—idea we
can repel his dastardly' falsehoods—thru we can
show his hypocritical %illainy—Mrn we exhibit
his open malice—dim we, portray Iris blackness 01
heart. His cub roan warfare is mean—cowardly
—engentlemanly.
We repeat it—and do so most emphatically—
that for morality, honesty, sobriety, and every oth.
er quality, that would endear and recommend one
man to another, the candidates of the democratic
party will favorably compare with those of the op
position.
03. The editor of the Gazette is waspish! In u
perfect frenzy he has burst all bounds, and is again]'
'down upon us! Thoughmot in -tine frenzy roll
f tholte would bd the "pores" eyes—the
Deacon looks through the "windows of his soul' .
f upon us, staring. glaring, dilated and blood-shot
fas they are, like at wounded snake full of venom ,
!but incapable of mischief; The editordiad better
`keep himself cool.
1 In regard to the invitation to the "oyster
we really considered ourself an invited guest; but
!inasmuch as we were nut:, all we can do is pocket
the disappointment. We. thought as he had not to
render an account to the - "tifterm wings" for that V,
t i he was following the liberality of a gentleman in
by 7 gorte days _who wide 'a: feast andtpthered to it
!all the loco yaros lie could find itt the highways and
14-ways; but hisfeast it turns out was all gammon,
nand our month watered for his delicacies in vain !
Con it be possible that the "fifteen whigs" made him
pay that money over to the Orphan Asylum
Our curiosity is really' esteited 7 -cannot our friend
of the Jourtnit enlighten ifs on the sidl:ect
If the editor of the Gazette would free; himself
from the imputation of being one of the Sliites- one!
P/uairres, he done wrong to proclaim his aims be.
fore men, WIC: blow trumpets about his charity in
the streets, for that was con racy to the Divine
command, not to let his right band know what his
left hand &mai. But we fear; after all, that it was
secretly a sinister gift; and if so, the bread which
he cast upon the waters will not come } back to hiss
after many days! "Verity he shall have his re
ward."
j• The Editor of the Journal presumeS greatly
.upon the gullibility and ignorance of hisl readers,
in his zeal to defame Mr.M'eandles2, utinse spot
less reputation, amiability and kindness, •vere but
lately the theme of an'arlicle in his paper i advoca
ting the election of Mores Hampton,
Why, neighbor Riddle, don't you know the
people tire laughing at your stupidity and pre
sumption! you charge, Wttsoxls:ma:sit
with telling a falsehood, when he said he had
given his first vote, his maiden vote" in 831' for
General Jackson, and you bring,for.vard a note
addressed to Geo. Darsie in 1834, nearly ado years
after M'Candless' first vote, to prove that FWeand
less belle a lie, and that he could not hale voted
for Jackson two years before that!
Nonsense, Mr. Riddle,—nonsense! Yob would
convict Gco. Darsie of telling a falsehood in the
same way, and by the very speech Mr. M'Cand
less asked to have published. Because Darsie will
tell you that he himself voted for Jackson in 183 Q:
and does Darsie lie because he niqe that speech
against Jackson in 1E41?
• Ci-The Whig Address to the people of Alleghe•
ny County is attracting universal attention by its
cogency of reasoning, sprightliness of wit, and fe
licity of expression. The critical investigation of
sentiment and style, to which the Letteni of Jo.
nius Were subjected, is likely to be employed in
discovering theformidable writer of this Address.
We cannot but express our surprise that its author
should be go indifferent to fame as to withold his
name from this brilliant production; we wish his
scruples could bi overcome, and that he would
come boldly forward and claim this stray effusion
of his genies. But he will be discovered; his se
crecy is not impenetrable, and the accomplishment
of another Herculean task will betray the man:
ex pede HELLCCI.E3I. It is pretty clearly ascertain
ed who the individual was that figured in the Iron
Mask, and-public opinion -has fixed - the authorship
of Justus upon Sin Plume FIIANCIR; and the
dame indefatigable . spirit of inquiry will, doubtless,
find the writer of this Address, who seems at pres
ent determined to leave us nothing save,
~ Magni *tat nominis umbra!" •
orj , The Gazette men publish a receipt from the
Manager of the Orphan Asylum of Pittsburgh, for
65, being the sum paid thelnfor fora copy of Hampton's
renunciation. As this we suppose was the first act
of charity ever performed by our neighbors, they
take especial pains to trumpet it to : .the
Verily, Deacon, ' , charity .cdvereth a multitude Of
sins!"
The Deacon and his Feast
"Go and do likewise."
The Editors of the Gazette paid the Five Dol
_
lars rezeived by them for a copy of Hartipton's
. =
Masonic renunciation; to- the Orphan Asylum''—.
Can't they induce HamPton to pay one of the , two
fees received. by him in the Braddee trial, to the
Bartle chatitable institution? ..The Strayer fee .of
$5O would not be al? beneficial as the Goyernment
one of $500; but still'it would in a measure relieve
the wants of the Orphan. Our advice to Hamp-
is to follow the example of the Deacon. if
he will do this aq of charity, we will agree to say
nothing more shoat hifi'double dealing.—Keep the
$3OO, and give up the $50..
Neighbor Ittnnnn,.Mr. ITAxiTox's renunci
ation still stands in our office, and we shall be very ,
happy, to let you have the use of the type free - of
charge. Do publish it; or will you back otit from
this also? People tell us that you are a fair, can
"did and honorable man, and of course we expect
you to comply with this reasonable proposition 4.
Mr. Hampton is your candidate—be expects sup
port from your readers and your party, and is it
not unjust to withhold his opinions of Masonry
from your patrons and suppoitcrs? It is all gam
mon to say that you will not publish the rentincia
don, because the request comes from a "Political
enemy." We shall not permit you to escape in a

A Poirrlcat, PAII , SUN REIICKI:II.—The New

dent Jackson and the late Rec. Mr. Kinney, once a
Lieutenant Governor of Iliinnk, which contains a
just rebuke of all clerical office-seekers. It is as
follows:
"Mr. Kinney had come to 'Washington to ask for

JUDGE COULTER
The appointment, of this gentleman to the Su
preme bench of Pennsylvania, has met with the ap
proval of papers of both parties. In fact every
paper noticing speaks in high terms of his appoint
ment. Some Whig papers in speaking of it, claim
Mr. Coulter, as being a leading Whig. In this they
are mistaken for in 1814,. Mr. Coulter voted the
whole Democratic ticket throughout. He was
warm and ardent in the election of Polk, Dallas
and Shank. He was appointed at the request of
and with the unanimous sanction of the Democrat
ic party of Westmoreland. We are sorry to see a
party press so debased, as to use this means to
make covert attacks on our and popular
Governor. - In making this appointment, the Gov
ernor only carried effect the expressed wishes of a
great many leading men in the Democratic party,
in Westmoreland county.-1 Vest. Republican.
JUDGE COULTER
One or two newspapers in noticing the appoint
ment of this gentleman to the Supreme -Bench,
have spoken
,o him as a Whig. Whether this
were in the spirit of- cavil and criticism or not, it
is a mistake.. No purer Republican in principle
ever sat upon the bench, and if any of those rpies.
tions should arise, which try the -eiernentary
tics of Judges, Mr. Coulter will be fotaid to be such

go ricfurther back,,in.lB44 he, was the Grm sup
porter:of Polk; belles and Shunk, and the whole
Democratic ticket: His uppoiritinent was asked
by the united yoke of the Pcmocrats of this county,
who knew him !Well. We can assure those who
feel disposed to doubt or criticise 'Judge Coulter's

Dear Sir:—The undersigned,committee; appoint-,

and Allegheny cities, at a Meeting held on the
15th lust., prese.nt the' following Tor your conside
ration. You are aware, perhapS, that the Manu
facture, of BootS and Shoes is carried on An a
considerable. extent in ,the - Western Penitentiark,
and sold principally MAllegheny city, Pittsburgh,
and the county, (no other county in the District
I taking,' a share of it,) thereby threwing the burthen
on the honrst Mechanies of this county, by Convict
Labor coming in competition with theiri. Under
these considerations we tisk of you a drfinite an
swer to the folloWing question:. Will.'yoU pledge
your honor, as 'a man, if circled to, the next Legis
lature at the approaching, election, to use all your
influence and all the abilities you possess to get an,
art ,passed at-the next session, prohibiting the Man
ufacture of Boots and. Shoes in. said prison, or if
manufactured there, prohibiting the sale of them
in this State, under certain penalties prescribed in
such act.
Your answer' to the above will mach oblige your
friends and fellow-citizens.
To Atedirs. rWas, Mrlotosh;
G.C.NTLEMIC7.II:—In reply to your iipestions on the
subject of Penitentimy labor, I will state my views
in a.s. fen` words as possible, and`by a general an
swer. It is in i anifestly unjust tlitit convict labor
should be allowed to come in competitiosi with the
industry of honest men. It is doubly unjust that
6ne or two traders only, should stiffer all the corn
petion. Yet Bain not in favor of abolishing every
system of labor in our prisons, because the result
would be a larke increase of taxation. But lam
in favor of making it penal to under sell any class
'of trasdesmeti With the product of convict labor.—
I am equally 41 favor of compelling every county
which sends convicts to our prison, to take a just
proportion of What is manufactured there, sothat
the mechanicSbf Allegheny county, may be reliev
ed from the harden; all of which, they now unjustly
bear. If this would not abr. relief. I think the sale
of any prison product should be prohibited in the
state altogether.
The evil or irison labor is'sci necessary, that I
find itreally difficult to think or pr suggest a prop
er remedy. Our honest mechanics are now unjust
ly dealt with, had I should be glad to juin in any
practicable pilin to remove the Wrong.

should be removed ds soon as possible, and if I

use my influence and ability to have a law passed
to that effect. lam (if opinion that the best way
to get rid of this matter, would be to send the Boots.
