Several citizens opposed to the gubscrip
tmn, enquired whether some of lha Vice
Presidents were not Subscription-men, and
contended that no one should be permitted
to take pait in the meeting who was not nn
atiti-suhsui jptiouist.
J. B. Paeker, Esq , of Sunbury, replied nt
some length, urging upon the meeting the
justice and propiety of hearing both sides of
llio question, lie read the call fur the meet
ing, showing that it was general, for "nil
citizens of ihe County, without distinction of
party," and remarked, that in obedience to
that call, very ninny had intended, who lion
'stly believed the, subscription was rijihl
Many 01 hers, he had no doubt, were just as
honestly opposed it. Here was a differ
ence of opinion upon a matter of common
intereM to them all. and w hat mora rational
modi; could be adoped lo arrive at a correct
decision, than to hear both parties? All that
I tin subscription men desired writ justice;
nn I. as an earnest of this, ulihoujih they be
lieved thev had nuniei ical strenylh sulfieienf
to elect a I'.esident of their own, they had
made no opposition to the election of an null-subscription
man. They relied upon the
justice ol their cau-e, and the liijh diameter
and intelligence of the officers and members
of this meeting, for a liuht decision.
C. Pleasants. Esq , of Snnbnry. look an op
posite view of the subject. He thought no
one hid a right to speak there but those op
ivissd lo the subscription the meeting had
been called by thoin, and no one elj ought
In be heard.
The Piesident remarked that he thought it
was fair both parlies should be permi'.led to
speak; what tjia people wanted was ligv'il
upon the subject, and Ihen they could act mi
li'rstandii!gly. Ii the rail road men thouuhi
lhey could show us ihe subscription was
liuht, let ihem have a fair chance, and do
lh"m justice.
This decision was sustained by merlins
wiili great unanimity, when Mr. Pleasants
nuaiu arose mid called upon all opposed to
the subscription to wilhdiaw
Mr. Packer remarked Ihat he hoped the
speakers upon the other side would not leave.
