thin I t way I can, wiiich lam now coin.
pa nd trying to do by the only course
left . .
During the fall of `lOl I became tic
quainted with John Stenebraker, and lived
wttlon a few rods, of his house for some
imiita of time. I have since that time
lived 'in his neighborhood, been intimate
wulr litrit \ and.regularly had dealings --with'
him for the last thirty-six years, and have
always considered l and found him to be a
man of truth and strict integrity. I never
heard Ins character fur integrity, veratity
4r.. truth questioned by any one until-he had
independence and moral courage enough
to publically declare his knowledge of what
he had discovered to be a dishonest trans
actton on the than of Mr., Potter.
14thla-tunishinent I have seen Thom.
as MP. Owens of Birmingham announced
in th'e Patter pap-Ts "as an eiernalary pi
one man and an el ier of the Presbyter tan
church," and ...one - whose .dectstrations
Must forever put to eight-the depo*i/tons
of the Messrs. Stonebrakers." I \ have
some knowledge of the character of Mr.
Elder Owens, and wou'd just say "if is no
better than it should be." One thin., h o w. ,
ever is certain, he never was an Elder of
the Presb”ertan church and his character
could wit have been so‘ery good, but a
eery few years ago, when and where he
was best known, ARREiTED ON A
CtIARGE 01 - PAS:3ING COUNTER
FEIT MONEY, at Birmingham in this
county, where he had long dwelt and his
character was well known'. At which
tune a. respectable clergymen who was
pretty well acquainted with him, told me
he a ttoped the law ti - light noWdo what mrir
al persuasion had faileu to accomplish, that
is; produce a reformation in -his character.
In short I feel confident ; that I state
but what ii well known, and. what the
mind of every candid man who is well ac
quainted with Thomas-M. Owens, will at
once concur in, when I state that he is a
man who will say, "yes, yea, •0 yes, yes,
certainty," to any thing which can be

i•
Rapt), Joseph Sdyddr, Henry Miller, Mo
ses Sarver. ,Ernahucl Larab, Peter Keifer,
David Fritz: whe rifler retiring for a short
time repotted thii- fallowing which were
read and unanimously adopted.
Whereas, we have ever been the firm.l
supporters of sward democratic principles;
and whereas; the party now io 'power at
Washington, liaire fot.iha last eight years
used evert insidious means to form a strung
and consolidated Government; and where!'
as, our present eelf styled democrats are
now giving their, zealous support to men
who are the avowed advocates of that
most infarirms Sub•treasury Scheme—a
system having for its end the concentration
of all power In the hands otthe President.
Therefore
Resolved, That this.meeting, can see
no difference between the principles and rte•
dons of the present Van -Buren and Porter
Party, and the former Federal Party of
1799, who were like the present party in
favor of investing the President with
,un
limited power.' .
Rewired, That it is an insult to the de
mocracy'of the'country for the Porter men
to arrogate to themselves-the name of de
mocrats, so long as they support the old
federal measures of 1199, and follow in
the footsteps of their federal leaders some
of whom were at the head of the. federal
party in the feign of terror, and who- to
this day cling to their federal principles.
Resolved, That we have lost,all poofi
dente in Martin Van Bu-en, and warn our
fellow citizens to have a watchful eye over
him since he formed a coalition with John
C. Calhoun, the great leader of the Smt li
ern nullifiers, -who boldly declares that
the -Union has failed to riccoiliplish the
object (or which it was formed, and .the
sooner it %Vas diisolved the better."
ResOlvtd, That we continue our un
shaken confidence in the sound democratic.
principles of our present worthy. chief
Magistrate, Joseph limier, and that we,
consider it the duty of every patriot who
loves hie country better than party to sup
putt his re election.
1. Because under his administration a
most judicious system of Internal Im
provement has been adopted; the income
of our public works been made to yield
double, and al! the great interests of our
commonwealth scrupulously guarded with
out adding one cent to the burthen of the
people. .
• 2. Because by his proclamation he has. I
restored to us a sound and constitutional I
cut rency, and has drawn out of circulation
the nasty an. filthy Van Buren and Porter
Shinplasters. .
3. Because he has done more to pie-
I mote the prosperity of this State, than any
other Governer since the days of Simon
Snyder.
4. Because he is a democrat not only
by name, but also in principle.
5. Because he has \ been tried and in the
language OfThounas Jerson, foetid 'hon
est, cit pubic, and lait brut to the constitution.'
Lastly because in all his relations of
private life he has sustained, an unblem
ished' character, end has never failed to
conciliate the confidence,and affection - of
those who know him best.
Re ß solved, That we cannot supimrt Da
vid . Porter . •
1. Because be is In favor of the eicii us
sub-treasuey scheme, and Maftin Van B -
rev's i rredeemable shin plasters, for prop,
ace his vote on the senate Journai of:last
,session, page 653.-
2.
_.
Because he has been proved by those
""who knoW him" to be a dishonest and
perjured man, and totaljy unworthy of
1 trUat., _ , _
. .
3. Because we believeliim to be - unfit
as well in rpoint of intellect as in point of
iutegrity,lto perform the duties Of the of.
fiee.to which he aspires. E• •
4. Because although said to be worth
$40,000, be still refuses to pay;his hottest
debts.
MI
5. Because his whole character 'shows
that he iu a low, intriguing and dangerous;
PT. 26, 1838
man.
Resolved, That the charge of abolition
against "Joseph 'littler is unrouridecrin
truth, and only got up by the Porteritaii,
as, their kid resort to divert public atten,
t ion from the -crimes 'charged ogaituit4heir
own candidate, and of which they know
him to be guilty.
Resolved, That we warn the friends of
Rimer in all parte of the county to be
ready and prepared to meet this stratagem
of the Pertermen With the undeniable facts,
viz: That Martin Van Buren voted in the
New York Convention to give negroei
the right of suffrage; that RiChard' M.
Johnson is a practical amalgannstioilist;
- that DaVid - R. Porter hiniself voted against
the admission of any Territory into ,the
Anion, unless it would first set all negroee
'frilifind lastly, that a majority of the
leaderelof the Porter party are known as
avowed abolitionists. • '
