" PRINCIPLES, NOT MEN."
. E,very good Democrat should remember, in cast
ing his vote, that Principles ore every thing, and
Men nothing. The Democratic party havetal.
Ways labored for the' establishment of certain prin
diples, upon which depend the- permanency of our
matchless form of government. We care not who
the men may be, who are selected to carry out
those'principles, so that they are "honest, capable,
and faithful to the Constitution." The candidates
of the Democratic party, w* feel assured, come up
to this Jeffersonian standard; and we trust that
every Democrat, wbo has at heart the welfare of
the party, will vote the whole ticket, and nothing
but the ticket!
Look out for lying Federal handbills, which may
NEN
.be stuck up at the street corners, and at the places
of voting to-day. Place no confidence in any
electioneering statement which may be put afloat
by our unscrupulous opponents, when it is too I;tte
for the Democrats to. refute it.
03.1 f you wish to see honesty and economy
practised in the , affairs of State—if you wish to
see Pennsylvania proSper for the future, as it has
for the past few years—if you wish to see the
State debt punctually, paid, and the good name of
the Commonwealth preserved inviolate—if you
wish to see every branch of industry equally,lbster•
ed and protected,—vote for FnsNcJs R. SLUNG
and Monnis LONOSTRETH; but on the contrary,
If you wish to see: profligacy and extravagance
introduced again in Pennsylvania, such as charac
tensed the Ritner and Stevens administration—if
you wish to see your beloved State reduced to
Bankruptcy and disgrace—if you wish to see an
Iron League establiShed, and all other branches
made subservient to the Iron Mongers—if you
wish a° see Bankrupts and the advocates of Bank-I
ruptyssume the control of our State affairs,—then
vote for JANES IRVIN and mOSE.PII W. PATTON.
Let the freemen of Allegheny county remember
that George Darsie, the Federal candidate for Sen
ator, has never yet explained his conduct in rela•
lion to.the sale of that Lot to the :Masons. The
deep and damning disgrace of that transaction will
'trick 'Whim closer than the shirt of Nessus!
Democrats one and all, do your duty! Let no
considcation whatever, prevent you from going to
the polls. Not only vote yourself, but see that
your neighbor votes also. Devote this day to the
cause of your country, and posterity will bless and
praise you.
Vote early, by all means; and remember that it
is •the early bird that catches the worm. The
Federalists will make a rush for the polls in the
morning, and after securing their own votes, will
brow-beat and challenge the Democratic voters, so
as to prevent them from voting before the polls
close. We trust our• friends will not allow the
Feds to steal a march upon them.
Let no Democrat think that his vote kill be of
no use. George Darsie was elected a few years
ago, by one vote over Dr. Gazzam ; and the supine
ness of a single Democrat may cause a similar re-
Ault this year. Let every Democratic vote be
polled.
FRIENDS OF GOOD GOVERNMENT!
'Stay riot away from the polls to day. Every
thing depends upon your exertions. Under the ad
ministration of our excellent Governor, Pennsyl
vania has been redeemed from the deep disgrace
which rested upon her fan - name during the period
that Federalism ruled with a rod of iron. Vote
for Fuacis R. SituNr. - , and our noble old Com.
monwealth will continue to prosper; and peace,
happiness and plenty, will dwell within her bor.
tiers.
RALLY! RALLY!! RALLY!!!
Democrats! make another grand rally to-day,
in all your strength and majesty. Rally from
your workshops—rally from your fields—old men
rally—young men rally—rally all.

Freemen of Allegheny county, choose ye this
day which shell be your Governor.

if our whole vote is out. Let every friend
of Governor Shunk—every friend of Democratic
ascendency—every true friend of Pennsylvania—
turn out to the polls, and route Federalism, "horse,
loot and dragoons!"
Cr Pennsylvanians! will you place a man in
the Gubernatorial Chair, whose only claim to your
suffrages consists in the fact that he is a wealthy
Iron Master? Governor Shank is alike the friend
of all interests and all classes. He is opposed to
exclusive privileges; and will never consent to see
the iron interests favored at the expense, and to the
injury of the farmers, mechanics, and laboring
inert of the country. Make James Irvin Governor,
and a grand Iron ' l eague will be formed through.
out Pennsylvania, and he will forge chains and let.
ten to bind to the earth every man who will have
the independence to think and act fur :himself.

The Federallsts.—The War.
The Prr:sitient of the United States, in his tees
sage to Congress of May 11th,1846, asserted "war
exists by the act of Mexico herself." This asset.-
tion of our Chief . Magistrate was reiterated by the
House of Representatives, by nearly a unanimous
vote, and the Senate repeated the declaration. The
Federal party now assert that Mr. Polk made war
with Mexico. They assert that the statement
made by the I'resident and both Houses of Con
gress was • LI S.; Tem Corwin, one of the most reck
less of the apologists of Mexico in our country ,
ho was a member of the Senate at the time says:
•
They (the Democrats) supposed we rould not
swallow so grrat a Err! They were mistaken. WE
SWALLOWED IT!!!"
This is a specimen of Federal Whiggery! They
believed that the President uttered a lie and yet
they were willing to swallow it and then azknowl
edge that they knew it was a lie at the time. This
was done, too, under their oath as members of the
Senate and House of Representatives to support
the Constitution and laws of the United States—
How can any man, who has the least regard for
truth. sustain a party who will make such avowals
as this
The Whigs and Nr. Darsie
The Gazette of yesterday, in relation to the
puritws Whig ticket, makes the following charge:
This is a miserable Loco Foco and Native
1111111
This charge was made by the American of
Saturday, and refuted by us on yesterday. The
Telegraph says the tickets were printed at the
Dispatch office. If the editor of the Gazette, or
any of hi friends desire to 'have the truth, let
them go to the Dispatch office, and they will learn
that these tickets were ordered and paid for by
members of the 11'hig party. One of the persons
concerned, was a delegate at the last Whig county
Convention, and a member of the Whig County
Committee—Mr. MTherson, of Indiana township.
Mr. Noble knows this well and can inform Mr.
Brooks as to the cause of this oppositian from
members of his own party. The democrats have
nothing to do with it—it is a family quarrel ; and
fight it out, gentlemen, the best way you can.—
For ten years you refused Mr. Noble the nomina•
tion and we are free to say, that he is tl e best
man on your ticket; but you shan't charge the
dirty work of your own men against his election,
upon the democratic party.

We take pleasure in announcing that our enter
prising friend, Mr. FOSTER, has made an engage
ment with this most accomplished singer, by
which she will give two more Concerts in this
city ; and as many have not yet,had an opportr
nity of hearing her, they may now be gratified.—
She will appear at Athralaw! Musical Hal, Tins
E EN! NG, and to-morrow evening;—when she
will sing a number of popular songs and selec
tions from celebrated Operas, accompanied, as
heretofore, by the talented Mr. Rohbock, on the
Piano. When it is taken into consideration, the
great expense at which Mr. Foster has been, in
fitting up the elegant room, (one of the finest in
the United States,) its peculiar adaptation to the
highest enjoyment of such enchanting strains as
Madame A. utters, 'and the great expense which
he incurs in Milking, a longer stay on her part,
we trust that our citizens will amply remunerate
him ; and thus encourage him to make still fur
Ither efforts to gratify a laudable Paste.
cj Remember, that to Gen. Irvin belongs the
credit of being, 'the father of the infamous and
plundering Bankrupt Law, which was passed in
order that Federal speculators might avoid the
payment of their honest debts. Let every oppo
nent of that swindling Federal scheme vote for
honest Francis R. Shunk.
Why should a Democrat hesitate to vote

Sanaa been honest and faithinl I Can the Whigs
make a charge good against him, Not one.—
Dare them to show wherein he has erred. The
Bankrupt editors of this city call him a public
pensioner—a pUblic pauper. Tell them that he
has discharged all his public duties honestly, and
Paid his private obligations without the aid of
Irvin's Bankrupt law. Can they say as much ?

The church. Ihmers.,--Read: •
The following conimuoication comes to uslrom
one of our most prominent citizens—a gentleman
who resided in the City of Philadelphia during the
time the federal native party burnt and plundered
Churches dedicated Ito ale worihip of the Almigh
ty; what he says can be relied on.
Ma. HARPEIC—Like the Editor of the Gazette,
the writer of this note, desires "neither to court
the influence or tile votes of any particular
religious persuasion, and would as heartily detest
eithr individual or party that would endeavor to
stir up religious prejudices and feuds for particu
lar ends."
The author of the “Catholic Layman," and his
pamphlet, are unknown in this vicinity. The au
thor is, beyond question, without the pale of any
church, and in all :probability an office-seeking
truth-forgetting Whig.- ,
It is a notorious fact that the Whig Sheriff of I
Philadelphia City and County, Morton McMichael,
(now one of the Editors of the North American, a
leading Philadelphia Whig paper,) after calling
out the Military, refused to give Gen. Hubbell and
Col. Page authority to use their arms at St Michael's
Church to disperse the mob, thus exposing them
to the violent indignities from the rioters and
church hurncrs.
It is likewise a part of the history of the three
days of Arson and murder in the city and county
of Philadelphia, that previous to the burning of St.
Augustine Church, Gen. Cadwallader urged upon
Jno. M. Scott, the Whig Mayor of Philadelphia,
the necessity for a Vigorous use of his command.
He failed to receive either the authority of the
Sheriff or Mayor, and as a consequence Capt. Jno
Butler, now serving his Country in Mexico, was
compelled to "the child's play" of marching and
countermarching his Troop of Horse in front of St
Augustine church, without the necessary power to
strike a blow in defence of the laws.
St. John's Church' was to be the next object on
which the vengeance of the mob was to be direc
ted, and thither the Current of outlawry was tend
ing. The first City Troop were ordered by Gen'l.
C. to repair at once to 13th street, and at all haz
ards secure the safety of St. Johns. The Whig
civil arm remained Undecided, and at this juncture,
Gen. Cadwal ,der determined to take the responsi
bility and resist to the death. His prompt and de
cided conduct saved the beautiful structure of St.
John's. His course afterwards, when he acted
under the authority Of the civil arm in Southwark,
saved the Catholic Churches in the district, and
gave a wholesome lesson to evil doers. Fifty po
lice officers could have protected St. Augustine
church—the Mayor's High Constable was so re
quested to say to that officer, two Hours before it
was filed by a handful of boys, and yet he failed
to have that number, although he wielded a force
of nearly 300 men.
It will now be seen who were the Church burn
ers—at least who were the persons haying the
power to prevent the incendiarism and refusing to
exercise it. Nu intelligent man can doubt.
It was the universal opinion in Philadelphia at
the time, that the want of moral courage on the
part of the Mayor and Sheriff, refusing to grant
permission to the Military they had called to their
aid to fire on the rioters,that permitted the Church•
es to be burned.
These facts are presenteiP fur your use by one
who remained in Philadelphia during the whole
period of the Philadelphia riots—they cannot be
refuted—now or hereafter. I would not charge
Church burning on the Whigs—my only object
being, to resist the slanderous imputations cast by
the Gazette on such, true men and soldiers as Cad
wallader and Page.
N. B. One of the, most indomitable Whigs in
this city was sojourning in l'biladeljihia at the
time of the Kennington Riots, and will, although
an Irvin man, corroborate the above statements.

The question of the constitutionality of the li
cense law will be armied by the Supreme Court,
next week. If the Court are of opinion that the
law is constitutional, then the other question,
whether its provisions arc appli:able to the two
cities, mill be raised and settled. The difficulty
arises from the fact,'that the word Ward does not
occur in the firs! section al the law, which is con
lined to the boroughs and townships of Allegheny
county. , :
fo get clear of this difficulty, and legalize the
elections held last winter in the cities, legislative
action was proposed and rejected at the last ses
sion. 13y referring to the senate Journal, Vol. 1,
page -145, we find the following :
„A motion was made by Mr. Darsie and Mr.
Lewis—[our two Senators from this district,]—to
amend the bill, by • adding to the end thereof, a
new section, as lollOWs, viz :
That the first section of the act. to which this
is a supplement, shall be so construed, as to make
it lawful for the Citizens of the sei•eral wards of
Pittsburgh and Allegheny, to decide by their votes,
in the same manner and with the same effect, as
the citizens of the several bor oughs and townships,
in the counties named in the Said section, and au•
thorized to do, whether or not the sale of vinous
and spiritous liquors shall be perMitted among
them, for the then ensuing year; and all decisions
heretofore made byj the citizens of any ward in
said cities, under the provisions of-said act, be,
and the same hereby declared to be, as good and
valid as if the word Ward had been used thro - -
out the first section of said act."
The question of the intention of the Legislature
will be involved in the discussion, and if it is pre
sumed that the members of the Legislature know
what they are about, if so, the opinion of Mr. Dar
sie, who aided in the passage of the original law,
ought to be worth something. If he had not thought
the law, as to other cities, was in operation, he coild
not have introduced the amendment to include the
wardsy and legalize the elections held last win er.
It may be urged on ;the other side that the majoiity
of the Legislature ih refusing to adopt the am nil
meat of Mr. Darsie; were of opinion that additidnz'l
legislation cannot be required, and that the cities
were embraced in the law.
We make these suggestions for what they are
worth. No doubt the lawyers employed will be up
to all this, and make short arguments on both
sides of the question suggested. •••

LOCAL MATTERS.
D{En CT HoserrAL.—We are pleased to learn
that the new Mercy Hospital will have so far pro.
gressed, that in about three weeks the building will
be covered in. We were unprepafed to learn that
the work had progressed so rapidly. as we under.
stand two stories have been completed.
The building will be four stories high, one hun
dred and twenty four feet in length, with a wing
at each end fifty feet in depth, of the same height.
It is located in the Bth ward of the city, on the
side of the hill between Pennsylvania Avenue and
the Monongahela river, near the toll gate; and
will present a most magnificent prospect from the
6th, 7th, and Bth wards; and be, when completed,
another ornament to our city. We congratulate,
our citizens with the certainty of the speedy Com
pletion of an institution so much and so long
wanted in this city. Those generous and liberal
persons who have subscribed towards it, as well
as those who have not yet had an opportunity of
doing so, will now be called upon for their aid in
completing an edifice that will not only give evi
dence of their chiwity, but be an ornament and a
credit to our thriving city.
The Architect, as we are informed, is Hedden
Smith, Esq ; contractor for the stone work, Mr,
James Fenlon ; carpenter work, James H. ATClel.
land, Esq ; brick work, Mr. John Allen.
It will be seen from the above statement, that
the Hospital already instituted will be ample for
those of our people who may be afflicted with dis
ease. We ask, where is the use of another for the
same purpose? Money has been subscribed, and
a site donated, for the purpose of erecting a Hos
pital. Would it not be the part of wisdom to de
vote these means to providing a home for the in
sane? We have urged this matter heretofore, with
what effect we cannot judge ; but time only goes
to convince us of tie necessity of adopting our
plan. , Will those directly interested think of this?
Tne Gamnr..ixo Lan.—ln the Quarter Sessions
of Philadelphia, a man named Harrison was found
guilty on two indictments, for keeping a gambling
house. We should like to hear of come similar
cases in our next coot'. There are more dens in
this staid old city, than most people are aware of;
and the business of viiriting, them devolves upon
the Attorney General, the Grand Jury, &c. The
law will prove efficient should its provisions be en
forced, rigidly.
' The Daguerrotype process has been applied,
in France, to the purpose of taking the likenesses
of noted robbers, thieves, burglars &c., so that they
may be known every Where. In such cities as
Paris and London, and indeed, in all countries, this
is of the utmost importance. The light angered
tribe will have a hard time of it when every corn.
mercial Court sets up a machine for taking their
likenesses. It will be well for the world if the
discoveries of Daguerre and Morse, together with
the action of Prison Reform Associations, and
more rational laws, would have the effect of a•
bo:ishin all sorts of knavtry. But we gueis the
means will fail in doing so much good.
