Dedr Beniiett : •
The discussion which took place a
little more than a week- since,. at Pottsville; be- :
tween Francis W. Hughes, late a loCofoco Sena.
tdr from Schuylkill district, and.tp.seph G. Clark.
son, a Whig lawyer of this city, on the tariff, and
the.position occupied by Mr. Clay and Mr. 'Folk,'
in rektion to that question, was reported by!a dis
thiguished stenographer here, andlit is now in prao
ce;ss of publication. The result of'the discdssion,
- I am credibly informed, and' in lace it is freely
spoken of by the whigs themselves, terminated in
Clarkson being effectually used !up.; and ip con
s'equence it is very generally regretted that lie was
co indiscreet as to accept the challenge throWn out
by Hughes. The effect of this debate in Sblanyl.
kill county alone, the great tariff, region of the
ry'tate, the whigs' w in discover in the retairns!of the
'election. Polk's majority will be at least 1,000- 7
Van Buren's, in •15 , 10, was a little over 300.
Well, that's cool. There's nothing like going
,
the.wholefigure ; A Locofoco leader, in this bor
ough a short tune a3o,Who, we learn, cskibiied the
wrong end to the audience, deelared that they
could " out-lie and out-steal' ;the whigs at atiy
time." • He 'evidently told the tidth—for the above
is a little of the hardest lying' we have sr for
some time: past. The ;very reverse is the .fact•
On the subject of the Tariff, the only question at
'issue, Mr. Hughes, to use the exiiressionnf an in
telligent- locofoco who never voted the Whig tick'
et for President, •, was completel'y demolished on
every point.' With regned toll+ question fc heth
er Mr. Polk teas in favor of thd present Tariff "or
not, we ha..&e heard of at least a !dozen loiofocos,
I who admit that; Mr. Hiighes dodger], or in, t i tteir
own words °' fluncked out, and rliid not answer the
questiMt.' The whigs did admit that Mr. Clarkson
was a most too gentlemanly for an opponent like
Mr. lughes, and rhOught he ought to have had a
little of • the Bear' in his cotrilosition. , That is
the only admission we heard. made, and , we leave '.:th'e,puhlic' to judge Whether tha i was ahy idispar
ageimmt to Mr. Clarkson. I
With regard to the vote in 'this Cotnity, we
will leave that speak for itself inl Noverni+r—and
if it don't tell a different tale front the abocle,then
we are, no Prophet. Schuylkill ' the gre4 Tariff.

There is no doubt . ..of the truth of tbe above.
Col. Johnson has always entertained the tilost ex

that next to himself and Mr. Vail Buren; ire would
give the preference to Mr. Cl 4-. The following

Resolved, That havindthieday placed in nom

county, we hereby cordially recoMmend him' to
the hearty support of every citizen in the district
claiming to to a whit, as well as to' the People
generally, as; One whose ardent devotion to the in
terests of the ,district has already been fully • tested
by his ficm defence•and advamcy of the glorious
Whig Tariffof 1842—as one whose early history
is a guarantee to all that he will always prove as
attentive as :he has been, to the interests of even
the humblest of his constituents, and as one every
way qualified to do credit to the•station, and faith
fully represent the united interests of the counties
of Dauphin, Lebanon and Schuylkill.

dividually teitiso.all honorable means to secure
the election of the Hon. Alexander Ramsey, :to
the office :or which he has this day been nomina-

CD" So shameful was the conduct Of the friends
of Ramsay, Oat they appointed a meeting of the
Conferees flip the three counties, 'in the short
space affive , _•; days after they were selected in
Lebanon—rind, we learn, did not even notify the
Confekees Schuylkill County of the day of
; meeting. • qpe of them found it out , by accident
on a visit to idlinegrove on Thinsday, l and another
knew nothing of the meeting until kriday night,
by an express from this place; when too late to
attend, without travelling during the night. He
very properly refused to attend under such ch
. I
cumstancesr The fact is the people of Schuylkill
county have been treated in the: most outrageous
manner by the friends of Ramsey' in Dauphin and
Lebanon. We have been told that they could
elect their eindidate without the whigs of Schuyl
kill by members of the party—we have been de
ceived, betrayed, and then taunted with being poor
politicians,Oy these men who even,boast of theirdis
honorable conduct. We may he poor intriguers,
but our atiiiens are honest and honorable in their
intentions4ith'ey despise officehunters—and if a
better man 'than Mr. Ramsey isofftlred, who can
be supported without a sacrifice: of principle, they
will teach him and his friends a lessOn that he will
not soon forget., They Will tench tlena.that even
in politics !f t honesty is the best policy," and also
that the true mode of procuring union and'har
mony " is:hy acting honorably, and not by pro
ving treacherous to their ownj friends'. It is the
purity of the Whig party that gives it its strength'
and, we shall do nothing . calenlated to sully its
Ifair fame. 1!. .' 1
.NATCIIII.IZATION. — A si m ilar j difficulty to
that which occurred in New I:rleaMs, with regard
to Naturalization papers, it is feared' will occur in
New York 'in consequence of the recent decision
of the Surheine. Court, that the Marine Court of
the City of New York is not 4 court of Record—
and consequently all Naturalizatipm papers grant
ed by that ca.trt are null and Wild. There is noth
ing that this contributed so much. to bring the
Present Naturalization Law into dijceputo among
the people of all parties, as the fl;equent frauds
practised under it, which in too ruany instances
are winked at and encouraged by the recipents of

Wzr.mt.ossenter, Aug. 14tli, 1444.
Dear Sir hope you will pardon the if I
have not ticeil up to the promise that made you;
viz; that I would, horn time to time; inform you
of the 'state or -the two great political, parties now
at issue,
im 4 1 , Old Lycoming." The faet!is that
for some time back, there was so little etithirsiasm
manifested 4e either side of the quaStien, that I
thought it hardly necessary to write c to You on
the subject until the fire begun to brightly burn..
Now, that the spirit of forty is ahread in our
County, and mass meetings, and discussions, and
big gatherings, little gatherings. and' all eons of
gatherings, are the order' of the day; I take, pleas-.
ure in making you acquainted with some of our
proeeedings4 And first let me speak of a pole
that was . erected by the Whigs in this place, ti
few days since. This pole is 156 feet in ; height,
and mutinies 22 inches over the butt, bearing a
loft a beatitiful banner,. upon which is inscribed
t • •
our prihcipls. . Just as this pole was erected, and
before the people had left the grpund a large Bald
Eagle sailed twice around its summit,. seemingly
to loiter near the spot, as though he' would have
been proud to make himself possessor 'of the ele
vated situation. It was a glorious bight. And
as the,eyes of the assembled multitude,'; caught:
the happy omen—they seemed 'to he filled with
the same spiiit that animated the bosoms of the
Hems Of tile Revolution, When th4' beheld the
Eagle of freedom perch upon their banners, and
the Liun of old' England cower down like'. whipt
spaniel, at the foot of the Americad Eagle; and
'shout after shotit arose upon the Injec.ze, until it
seemed to cleave the very heavens. The cause of
out illtistriOus "Harry of the West," is .moving
onward in."old Lycoming' most 'gloriouly, and
I have no doubt but that Henry Clay in the
15th Congressional District, will go beyond the
vote of Janke:; Pollock, at the special eledtien.
would not tray this if I did hot know it to be the
fact. With the standing of the two parties in I
Lycomingl I county, I am well acquainted, having
-
within the 'last two weeks attended whi s meet
ings in alrelost every township in the county, and
in regard to Nort'eumberland, Union and Clinton,
I have it fr l oin the best authority, that the Whigs
‘n thoSe counties are gaining strength elery day,
so that yotl. may - tell your Cht? lat their next
'meeting, that we' will not only '!do -the clean
thing" in this county, but also in the District.
know that the Locos are endeavoting to get up a
'spirit Of enthusiasmin this tortiy, but it is all ire
vain. The people are determine'd to read, and
think, and act for themselves, - ard wheh this is
the case, we knoW our cause is.seife. The Locos
held,'what tney call a tremendous mass'meeting,
in this town .on yesteiday. Aria I how ' ir!any do
you think this tremendous meeting numbered.
There are, whigs in town who will bci all they
are worth, that there was not, at the very 'outside,
more than from eight to ten hundred in attend -
ance, including men, women and baby's; and this , !
you must know was a:meeting of the cOun::trto
Northumberland, Union, Clinton and I.iycoMg,, l
