From tht I'hilidtl;ihia 'Spirit of tin Tirr.ss "J PARTIZA.N CONSPlRAtlL. On Tuesday 1st the, Pennsylvaniiiti enter tained it readers wilti snother of its myste rious giving out upon the Tariff. Thisprcu liar and disinterested article in nil cloaked tin tier the cover of an assullbpon General Cam eron. Two things have recently e.xctted tome surprise and wonderment in the minds cf the few readers who toil through the emp ty but noisy leaders of tins antiquated lady. One it the ferocious a virajjo-like spirit with which It assail General Cameron, and the other its sudden and unexpected desertion of ihe principle involved in theTarifTof '46, and its no less urdetit nflaction for the principle of frotection for Pennsylvania' great pro sluois, Coal and Iron.'- ' , This, we s.ir, lint excited surprise, but we should say not to many not to those who know tho history of the paper the history of those who are connected with it; who know hovr it was established under its present man agement, and how it has been plucked up from diowning to answer th purpose of as base a partisan conspiracy as was ever set on foot. . The paper is not what it professed to be It is not an independent Democratic paper. Ii is Ihe organ of a faction. It is the property of the men who Inml it money, and who use it at a medium of s'.smlerius and reviling their betters, and us a show bill to placard their own public virtues! Now and then it is put to uses no less mean but more dishonest. It is used to puff up some new scheme worthy of Congressional patronage, professedly for the public good realy for private profit ; ostensibly sincere and disinterested, secretly from motives of per sonal gain gain fiom the public treasury, to be acquired from the money of the people gain without a consideration, tewaul without labor. We know the public here known tho char acter of this print, and value it nenrdingly ; but it is the public abroad who are deceived and misled. It is the democracy in Ihe inte rior who are betrayed by it, and it is to warn them now and then we lurii aside from on' many other pursuits and take notice of this otherwise iiisijjnifieeiil and powerless paper. It is nut now thieo mouths since its lolteiing steps towards the grave its own hands had cooped out, were arrested by ihe kind chari ty of mire generous alms giver. A meeting of its ''black spirits and white, red spirits and gray," assembled to inspect its morbid anatomy and see if some new life could not be imparted to its decaying mem beta and willed (acuities. Mr. Buchanan was accidentally present, and generously offered to forget a debt it owed lo him and which he never could collect for who ever knew him to forget a debt 1 except, perhaps, tho debt of gratitude he owed In the men who lifted him from the valley of the shadow of death of Federalism into the fullness of the open day of Democratic honor and distinction. Mr. Buchanan w;ts then accidentally there tho dear confidential fi tends of Mr. Buch anan weie there, and they were nil called in to uid this decayed journal of decayed office hunters an patriots o.il uf place to aid it in its soie need, save it ftoni death ami save ils dear Editor, the peculiar friend of Mr. Buch anan, from the necessity of Kmisrnlion. Yes, this is true the gn at or;;au of Democracy, The purest of the pure, tlm faithful among Ihe faithless, had boitowed it last stiver and now stood like a mendicant c-alliit3 out for the love of Liberty, for the Jove uf Buchanan, lend us a shilling '. But, sincerely, it is a sorry thing lo see Ihe public thus misled and a gieat parly thus abused and betrayed by I lime who wear ''broad phylacteries'' and lo whose keeping are committed the advocacy of ils cause and the vindication of its nubia faith. The indus. Irious working men, the active men of busi ness, and the professional men, who go to I heir daily occupations, and have their mind filled with other thoughts than knavish quil. Iris and sharper traps for pretty places to lire on, oi high places to be disgraced by treason and incompetency the men with whom patriotism it a sentiment a real heartfelt sentiment the men wiih whom party principles are articles of faith, abiding faith do not know how they are 1,-iuahed at by these jnjglers and showmen of Dernocra. cy who publish a paper full of fine promises and mighty word, but who give a beggarly performance lo their deluded believers. Practical every day sail of people think that such a paper as that is, honestly cjpres. ses what it honestly believes ; but those who know the motives that prompt every line and letter that appears within ils columns, know thai it is the organ of a faction and not of A faith. The lecent treachery of the IVnnsvl vanian, upon the subject of the tariff", is a plain and simple lab., easily told, and easily understood ; and it is ihe purpose of this ar ticle to tell it Mr. liacha nan left Philadelphia as myste riously nt he itccideiilly arrived, lo be present at the medical consultation over Ihe body of hit organ. A few weeks went by, and then ho came again, not privately anil secretly, but openly, a,iJ with a loud shout of the par. Uixn few, who were prepaied to receive him. We say ihe few-for Ihe Democials f this county have never believed in the pu rity of old Federlists. He arrivJ-he was feted, dined, tupped, and visited. As all illustrious strangers me, ha was inken to various plaees of publio in terest he wat carried lo Giiard College, the Water Works, and Ihe office cf the I'eunsyL vanian '. We havo heard it suggested, that at he was on a tour lo this County, to stair, votes here, lo nominata himself for President, and denounce Geueial Cass at tlm next Read ing Convention, that it was a pily they did not take him to the Lunatic Hospital or the Asylum for the Blind ! For well nigh a whole month he tarried here, and witat was he engaged at 'Sueing ihi!' isiting eld friends! Xo ; but chaining, intriguing and electioneering, 0 full down tsuio who were high hi 4,he aflec tioiis of the party, ami upon whose ruin he hopes lo rise to power ai d authority. J'o break ivn Gen. Cass-to M,de.rtui,u Mr. I4tlatto influence the election for delegates in., immune convention-, to ,traJ iu the candidate fo' Judgeships to become ac quainted with the county members for the Legislature, and induce them to vote, for Judge Jeremiah Black, who had been sent her some weeks before to electioneer for the high place of Senator, In n fashion that would discredit candidate for township constnble." All Ihis he was engaged in. We know it. We know the men by nme with whom he intrigued and with whom he bar gained the men who were lo furnish the delegates, and Ihe consideration, Ihe political consideiation, they were lo receive. In due lime we will tell thnt tale, srmrintr no mnnt but spenking right out, that the Until may be known. A stumbling block in the way of these complotlet was Ihis question of the TurilT. The dread was, and is, that the members of the Legislature might feel thai iheyowed something lo Gen. Cameron lor his past vindication of the interests of Penn sylvania. How was ihis lo be overcome ! That was the question ; and lo pet rid of that difficulty it was resolved that Gen. Cameron should be ussailed, abused and vitlified, even in language thai was actionable, lie must be put down, no mailer how much his own feel, ings or Ihe feelings of his family and his friends were outraged, still he must be put down and handled like a political felon. Of that, however, hereafter we will spenk. Then some one was lo be sent lo Washing Ion, to induce Ihe Soul hern members lo agiee to modify ihe Tariff as lo coal and iron fuith with, before Ihe election for Senator should come off in Pennsylvania, so ns to lake the question out of the canvass; anil lo Ihis end a flatulent lilll'.' mull was despatched lo Washington, big with the fate of l'ennsylva ilia's Ctcsar ! He went, and perhaps while there he learned thai Mr. Buchanan, as the as the head of Mr. Polk's cabinet, was held answerable by all the Northern and onihem mon for the neglect of Pennsylvania in Ihe tariff bill of 1846. He learned, while ihere, that in bidding for Ihe Presidency, Mr. Buch anan wat as willing Iheti to sacrifice his own Stale for Ihe South, ns he has, since then, been w illing lo jeopard the Union by his ilis. reputable coalition with Jefferson Davis and Ihe Southern ultras on the slavery question. However, of that, loo, we will speak hereaf ter. The next plan was for the Pennsylvania!! to change front, and advocate the ilocttine of Protection, so ns lo secure that juiciest. T attain lhi object nl that juncture, the coal and iron men the U7u'g.?and Protectionists were apoaled to. Yes, '.he Whigs the odious Whigs, ns the Peiinjirnriimi would call them were culled out lo aiil in tins ndventurei and they answered to Ihe call, and five hun dred new subsctibers were given lo that pa per, procured for it by Ihe united efforts of leading Whigs, heavy holders of railroad slock, coal mine stock, and iron manufactur ing company slock, ns the price of iis.npot lacy fiom the tariff of MG lo the support of protective interest and Whig pi iucipses. ! Here we have the reason, the whole renson for Ihis Iraitotousdeserlion of the tariff of '.(ft, and this new-born zeal of the Penrtsylvanian for Ihe coal and iron inlersts of this State. But Ihis is not the whole story 'his is but one feature of Ihe gtea't plot which has been brewing in this city during the past month, and Ihe object of which was to trade away principles, and sell the faith of paity, lo break down good, and exalt ''bold bail nieu." We know it all, and will hereafter expose the whole of these confederates and their doings, an we have here made known Ihe secielof ihis partizan conspiracy. C7 H'oot.Y Hpads and Silver Greys.
