lion. C. It. Buck-Blew, Chairman of State
Committee s Dear Sir I have received tue
enclosed letter from oca of tlie oppoaine caff-
didatei for-tbe Gubernatorial oflice, and inas-
much at it proposes a plan Tor tlie conduct or
Ibe campaign wuicd baa never Deiore uoen
practised in Pennsylvania, and as the success
of other candidates, besides myself, is invol
Ted in tbe election, I have thought it my du
ty to submit the communication to tbe judg
ment of the State Committee representing
the Democratic party. If it is thought to be
arpropcr mode of conducting the canvaes, I
shall cheerfully accede to the proposition.
Hefpectfully yours.

riiitACELPHtA, July 25, 1837
Hon! Win. F. Packer t Dear Sir I have
laid before the State Committee the letter
signed l. Wilmot, dated the 14th insi., and
nm authorized to say to you that in the opin
ion of tbe Committee you ought not to accede
to the proposition it contains. The reason
for this opinion I will proceed to state. j
Tho slavory question, which it is possible !
your opponeut proposes to discuss, has very
recently been thoroughly considered and pas
sod npon by the people of this Common weal lb
The late Presidential eaueass itivolved the
wholo subject so far a it win proper for con
siderution by our people, aud wo can perceive
no utility in its re-discussion at this time;
nor any utbpr good reason for opening dt bate
npon it, Tho position of our party is well
understood, and requires a vindication, at
least by any extraordinary procei tLiig like
that proposed.
A joint canvass by candidates for the gu
bernatorial ilCco has never been conducted
in Ibis .State, nor, I believe, in nny other m r
thern one, nnd may well bo questioned on
(rounds of pubtic policy. If the practice be
once adopted, it will doubtless continue, nnd
party nominations be uniformly mado with
reference to it. No porty will venture to se
lect a candidato for this office who is not qual
ified for the stump ; and aptitude for debate
will hence become to be preferred to ndminij
trativdbil.ty. In short, the result will be lu
confine aouiiiiations to the class of talkers,
and to exclude all ethers. A rule of party
action which would prevent such men as
Henj. Franklin, Simon fcnyuer, ami l rnitcis
It. fchnuk from filling the F.xecutive chair of i
this State, must be a bad one, ana to be do J
oonnced rulhor than adopted. j
We believe there is a considerable public
opinion against tbo propriety of Kxecutive
candidates appearing at all before popular
meetings to solicit votes. This was first
practised by Win. F. Johnson in 1S48, and
tins boon to some extent followed by candi
dates since. The good results of it are uot
obvious. It did not originate with tbo Demo
cratic party, nor has it ever received any for
mal popular or party sanction. Itniaytbore.
Tore be considered all open question in future
practice, aud ut all events as forming no part
of the duty of a candidate imposed upon bini
by his nomination.
While your opponent bolls flic office of
President Judge, there is a special"objection
to the acceptance of his project, Tho pro
priety of law judges taking part in political
meetings is de'r.ied by our party, and U oppo
sed by sound public opinion. Hy no uot
whatever ought we to sanction or become
participants in a protilution of tha judicial
character. Nor will a resignation now made
altogether removo this objection. Your op
ponent bus iuti ntiuunlly tii-ld his oflice until
within tliuo noDt' s of the election, (rendering
it ivpi g-ili!o to elect a snccc-ssor the present
year.) and if resignation should n i take
place, it would obviously be with the inten
tion of resuming the oflice after the defeat fur
tho po.-t to which be aspires.
The proposed nsodo of conducting cam
paigns tuny p03aibly be suited to suimi of the
Southern and South-western States, whore
it has been practiced, and whoso population
mid political condition differ Trotn ours; but
il3 introduction here would ba against solid
fbjfclions, and without any conceivable good.
It is, therefore, a proposed 'Southern og
trresnion" upon tho practice and policy of par
ties in Pennsylvania, which cannot bo at all
accepted or permitted.
It is well that this question has arisen when
we have a candidute capable and fit for any
discussion before the people, aud when tho
.decision can be placed, without embarrass
went, upon public grounds which control all
or it.
1 am very respectfully, your obedient
servant,
C. R. Uuckalew, Chairman.

ITon. P. Wilmot. Jnar Str: Your letter
of tho 14th inst., was duly received, and as it
proposed a plan fur conducting the Cuberua.
toriul cumnuiirn which had never hitherto
been adopted iu Pennsylvania, and as the in
tercets of other caudidutes wcro itivoivcd in
the result, I did not feel at liberty to accede
to yonr proposition withuut lirtt consulting
tbo Stato' Committee to which the Uomo
erotic Convention has on its part specially
confided the coutrul aud aiauagi'itebt of the
canvas?.
You will receive herewith a copy of my
letter to the Committee, as ulao their reply,
by which you will perceivo that your sugges
tion does not meet their approval, and that,
for reasons stated ut length, I ought not to
accede to your proposition. It U therefore
reipectfully declined.
I am. yours, truly.

After publishing the marriage of Mr. Adam
Tate, of Chicago, to Miss Jeauutte Pettigrcw,
late of Scotland, tbe Chicago Tribune adds
"There is a bit of romance, sad enough iu its
character, connected with this announcement,
which the purties will forgive as for relating ;
Six young Scotchmen of this city, worthy

tontmeut and fortune on our short I, united
fur the purpose of sending for thoso to hum

did, come out together. For mutual protec
tion nnd society they took passage in the

made without accideut. and tbo party a
merry and happy party arrived safely at
Quebec, where they took passage on the

admired ber modest worth, By thern, for

And my soul with joys entrance. .

From thy lips so ruby bright,

Into rapturous delight j

With voluptuous curessing

Young lore makes his dainty urst,
When his sportive mischief leaving
There be pillows him to rest ;
Twine thy snowy arms about me,
Let me press that throbbing breast,
Now the world is nought without thee.
In thine embrace I uiu blest.

PETER HILEMA.N.
Sutibury, June 27, 1857 to
5IR :
The Sunbury and Kiio Railroad Cnnpanv
address ou us a paily who are, from local in-tero-tti.
deeply concerned in the completion uf
their Railroad.
You ure I understand, a propiietur o" land
wiihiti a few miles of their track, which land
uill, in the natural cuursa of events, bo greuily
eubnuceJ ill aliio from the timo this road in
built, uud hi iico the earlier thai eeuttakes place
tbe sooner your interests ure mh'erved.
Although so deeply inteiested in the success
of this Railroad, tbe owneisof property have, so
far, given the Company but little aid, but have
left It to simple against adverse circumst luces,
either lip n the hope that otheis would secure to
them the results looked for, or perhaps ujipulled
by tbe magnitude ut the undertaking.
Tlie eipci l.i'ion that tbe road will be built
without ih" aid of the landholders, has so fur di
minished by events as they have been developed,
as to induce the malingers lo make this ell'ort to
concentrate upon it llie influence uf such propri
etors as will be the inot-t diteelly benefited.
The fact, now II eslablUhed, that those com
panies who have it iu their power to oiler a laad
i a-i- in addition to the ordinary credit accorded
to railroad ciitcrpiiscs, find no dillkullv in ac
complishing their woiks, has encouraged the
niuiuucr in tins attempt, wlucn lias been com
municated to several persons, und has met with
great lavur.
'i be proposition now made is based upon a
mutual advantage ; as by the completion of the
road, llie market value will I c increase IJin a very
rapid ratio, it is lor the interest nt the owners to
paitvtilh a portion of their lands in order to se
cure a luro profit on the remainder.
Without entering into dctuils, which must be
arranged to tbe Kuti.faetion of both parties, aud
a surety given that Ihe object will beaccompli.h
ed, 1 stale ihe plan generally. That the owners
of hind in the vicinity of the Iiaiboud shuil cll
at fair rates of present vulue one-half their
tracU, to bo divided fairly as to quality, taking
pay therefor in the slock of the Company, reser
ving the oilier half for their onn future profit
tho puipaso being to offer the half purchased, a
a basis upon which to obtain tha fuuds to build
tho road.
It is desiiablo, therefore, as a preliminary, lo
know your views. And I therefore request your
l arly reply let it be yea or nay.
If you think favorable, I will thank you'o state
the loi alien of of your lands a general descrip
of them, and at what rale you would be willing
to part with the hall to the Company. You may
if Ihe plan succeeds, expect dividends on your
stock ss soon as the road is in action through
your vicinity. The remainder which is lelt in
your hands will rise in value so soon as Ihe com
pletiou of the work becomes in public estimation
a fixed fact, so that you will soon realize from
the sale of your half far more thau you can now
obtain for Ihe whole leaving your stock aaaddi
tionel profit.
I invito perfect frankness in yonr communica
tion, as noadvautage will be taken- for the plan
will only be carried out in case sufficient land is
tendered, as added to our other means, will effect
the object aimed at
Very respectfully,
