In tbe great struggle for northern pro tection, whereby thejlustry of the coun try will be induced to develop the stupen dous mineral and agricultural resources of the nation, Henry D. Eoster is arrayed against every principle and the only pol ioy which ensures the freedom of tbe pub lic d omain by preventing the spread of slavery. He is virtually opposing pro tection to American industry by encour aging tbe fanatacism of tbe South, and recognizing the asserted rights of the in stitution of slavery in every State in tho Union. He is opposing the real interests of Pennsylvania by compromising with the corrupt leaders of every political clique prominent in the present political contest. Occupying these positions, and bound and controlled by these influences, tbe administration of such a man muit inaug urate a system of frauds and corruptions that would prove disastrous to every bus iness and political welfare of the State. His association with politicians of the most desperate character, and with those who havo been the authors of a large portion of the debt of tbe State, have plaoed him under obligations which he would be com pelled to discharge, if eleoted, by abusing aud prostituting the patronage of his po sition. Special grants would consequent ly become tbe order legislation. The ve to power would be wielded to prevent the application of a just policy of government, and atay tbe progressive prosperity of the Commonwealth. The people of Pennsylvania have only a few days to satisfy themselves that Henry D. Foster is not the man, in a po litical sense or with sufficient capacity to preside in tho Exeoutive department of this State. They have but a fow days to satisfy themselves that their resources and industry can alone be proteoted and im proved by sustaining tbe men and meas ures of the Republican organization. With them the responsibility rests. If they fail to support Andrew G. Curtin, they will also neglect to sustain a Repub lican delegation in Congress that was true to Pennsylvania, true to liberty. If they permit the legislature to fall into th hands ofa.corrupt political division, they ........ will lose the opportunity of Bending as boncst man to the Senate of tho United States. If they allow Andrew G Curtin to be defeated, thoy invito and insist on the rcieolion of Abraham Lincoln, and surrender all the prospects of northern.800 to believe that he would protitftJ progress and improvements to the preju-jtn powers ot tuo government to tlio tor duce, lethargy and licentiousness of a' therance of his personal and politicalpT& southern slavo-ocracy. ttnttQeu.Earrisburg Telegraph.. f ' ocracy Tbe people must keep those faots and arguments constantly before their eyes and in their minds, or they will be iea posod on by tbe designing leaders of two faotions whose only arguments and justi fications eonsint in aots of retaliative vio lence and alternate abuse.

Mr. Beck based his protest on the simple fact and ridiculous argumeLt that in Sharon town flhip Potter county, tbe election was held about a quarter of a mile from the usual place. The old school house, where tho election was advertised to be held, had been destroyed, and anew one erected in it8tead within sight of the ruinaoftbe old building. There xas no other school hoaao in that part of Sharon township, so that there could possibly bo no mistake. John . C. McGhce had carried the district by six teen votes sixteen fair majority, thus securing his election. But John C. Ma Ghee was a political opponent of Henry D. Foster, and therefore Mr. Foster de creed his expuliiou from the House. He reported, as Chairman of the Coomitteo of Election, that the vote of Sharon town whioh stood for John C. McGhce sixty one votes, and for Joo. B. Beck twelvo votes, should not be counted. In the en tire district, Mr. McGhoe had only six teen majority. As Chairman of the Committee on E lection, Henry D. Foster reported in fa vor of throwing out the vote of Sharon township, which gave Mr. Beck a major ity. He had a-clear majority of his own party with him 00 the committee, and therefore carried hi report to tbe House?, where he was sustained by another Dem ocratic majority. In thii transaction tho whole character of Ileury D. Foster was fairly and fully exhibited. It proves hovf bo lends and bows to the commands of his party when in a majority.
