Hon. a DAVID WILBIOT, of Penn’a.
The townspeople hud a largo jollification at Rob*

Some IdeU of the rflrc of (lib predint; Adminislra.

1. M. Ruckman. P, J M., bt Mansfield.' It u alleged
Dial he was decapitated because he refused to abo.
port (he hunker ticket, for which service-he was off.
crcd the sum of $£10! It will be remembered that
the Jiulanct is confrssodlya neutral paper.
Wanted —a coinuMrnt explanation of Messrs. Al
leger & Adams of the Scranton Spirit t relative In
(heir idea of National Democracy. They appear to
call themselves National Democrats, yet cannot go
the Administration. We had thought that the N T a.
lions! Democracy went in for the right-* of the South
always; so does Mr. Pierce. Then why don’t he
get the support of the Spirit.
A Voice from Ikie Souths—A new
rendering of tlio CuitttitiiUoii.
We are indebted to somebody in Dcs Arc, Arkan
sas, fur a number of ilie’Z>r* Arc Ciltteh, published
tn that place. Whoever the donor nny he, he hus
our hearty thanks for (lie favor, while a continuance
of like fgsor* is earnestly solicited. The number
in hand gives a fair exposition of the Southern idea
of Slavery and Constitutional right*.
Doughface* have preached (he doctrine of non-in
terference and peacabic acquiescence for many years,
insisting that the South Ins always been loyal to
the Lilian and the Conalilution, and will continue to
no if Northern fanatic*,(which term include* every
body not favorable to the invasion of Kansas by a
ruffian mob,) only leave the matter opui to a peaca -
Ut adjustment. (Which means acquiescence in ev
ert measure the Slave Power dares undertake) Uc
c.nional extracts hum the Southern papers creep in
to the Northern print* amt go far to prove Dial Die
doctrine of forbearance hast tew expounder* in the
South—lewer limn here in the ‘fiery, fanatical North,’
as our elegant and courteous Southern brethren ex
press it
In the paper referred to we find a report of a
meeting of the Democracy of While county, with a
loop string of resolutions appended, from fragment*
nry extracts from which wc will endeavor to give
our hunker friends h view of the Democratic Idea
at umicrrlood und expounded by their Arkansas
brethren
The resolution* open with a little glorification of
the ‘great, original Democratic parly/—all very
proper down in Arkansas, doubtless. Then follow
sundry hearty kick* at the Know-Nothings, strange
)y like those bestowed on the same carcase by the
laic W tllsboro’ Convention. Then comet a bit at
Judge Kane, unintentional of course, but a capital

The Arkansas democracy aro'.hiird on Know-No
ibinguiU because it makes. di»lincli»n»,on aechunl
of of birth and' the religion of choice.
But, these nice deujocrutft.ineket distinctions vise;
they proscribe men.op account of the accidents of
birth.and,folor. And is it worse to proscribe men
fur choosing an unpopular-.religion than for, being
Mqcic without choosing it? If opr ii.it gentlemen,
are you trying to write yourselves down knfjtf*, or
asses?—for you certainly between
the two. . > t • T*'
We,oppose Know.Notliinginn and Slavery on like
grounds—loo proscriptive, Both go lo work blind
ly to.bujld up cadi its class, reckless ol all rights
apd interest* except their own... One disfranchises
men for not choosing lo gel Ihu of day in
America, upjl Ihc oilier cplhralls men fur being phys
ically darker than its adherents. We hold ihem
both as dangerous —the parents of olhel and more
dangerous ’movements which may .proscribe “you
and I. and everybody," who dues pot epme up lo an
usurped standard of either ethical, social, or theolog
ical excellence.
In another' pari of the same pa per, we find •
speech hy Mr. Tun. U. Ti'XKKX, of whom the re
porter says.'
"lie showed Out if (/if South wi*hed to tecart the
Union, shr must act with and sustain the National
Democratic party, for Northern Democrat* alone
have stood by ike South.'*
Exactly so. Now will (he Democratic tender*
hereabout, who say that the Democratic party i» not
a pro Slavery parly just acknowledge the appropri.
at enow of Mr. Tom. 13. Turner 1 * compliment this
once, for the truth 1 * sake if for no oilier reason.
The whole dependence of ihc Slave Ppwer is orf
the democratic parly. If the democratic rnawo
tel indcjiendcntly of their leader*, Slovery muM go
down ; but if on Ihc contrary, llic leaders keep iheir
hold upon the confidence of the marie*, Slavery will
triumph—which, God forbid!
Tbc New-York Tilbtine,
A Prospcclu* of the abavcn-mird Journal will be
found in ihc new* column* of this paper. We give
tl place in the news rather than in the advertising
columns, for ihe reason that we consider the pro*-
perky of the Tuidcnf: and the advancement of the
can>e ot Free Speech, Free Soil and of Free Men,
a* being indissolubly linked. The Thisunk has tl*
ways been found b tilling in behalf of the weak und
oppressed against the strong and oppressive—always
true to the hot interests of Humanity and never
hesitant when a blow is to be struck fur the Rights
of Man.
The Tribune doe? not come fu’ly qp to the stand
ard we huvu fixed in our own mind an the true one
lor a paper ofils kind. Perhaps it might have miss
ed much of its present pro*ptrily had ilcomc up to
that standard—indeed, )l is almo*! certain that such
would base been the result. It lias not always treat
cd “New Thing*" with that candor and fairness
which after results proved them entitled to. It is
not so tolerant and considerate as it was when strug
gling for the proud position it now occupies—the
head of Journalism in the New World. This is
not strange; Moderation ensues upon the successful
termination of strung Endeavor, and Prosperity
makes us more charitable in dealing with Man's fol
lies and vices.
Still, we consider the Tribune the best paper in
the world—the fairest, the frankest, the truest to the
Great Good it advocates and the most rclixblc as a
newspaper. Its face hav been familiar to ns for the
greater part of its existence, and we learned to ad
mire its frank fearlessness and bold denunciation of
Wrung while politics wa*. but a myth to us; and so
attached to it have we become, Hint rather than be
deprived of its daily viml wo would sacrifice one
meal ptr day. As a family p.i|>cr i t is indispensable
and the Weekly should Cod its way into every .fam
ily circle.
A word as to Its influence upon the circulation iof
country ncwspipcrs : It is alleged in a few instan
ces Hut The Tribune is ruining the circulation of
rural papers. Tins may be true in some eases ; but
we have never seen tins allegation in any but pro.
slavery papers. We start with the proposition that
the People arc the best judges of what they want.
When we look charge of this paper, something over
a year ago, we commenced canvassing for the Trib
une among our patrons who called at the oilier, and
have never suffered an opportunity of speaking a
good word for that paper to pass unimproved, since.
Our li*l has increased nearly 3UO in the time, and
we have ascertained that we have the largest circu
lation in those dit-tncts where the Tridunc circulates
mo't freely. “The hot way of getting the facta be.
fhro the People " i« the true desideratum we opine.
Local intcrc.-t is the support of the local pros.
Wc ask a careful perusal of the Prospectus refer
red 10, and trust lhal ewry one of our patrons mil
add the Tsiacst lo their !i>l if it l« mil there already.
Wliat shall in: do for Bread?
Il may »urpri*o home people lo Irani that for
the l.i't tru il.i)w lhere has nut been a pound of Hour
mll* i k town lo lie had .il any price. Such, Imweter,
i« the fact. With Uni largest crop of grain ever cut
in Tioga minify jii'l harvested and threxhed, there
is not x pound ul‘ flour to he had in this region.
Now, f. Ijmv.rilucn*, we know why there ii no
flour lo he hid at any price, jml at (hie prrwnl
lime. We know why wo were nude lo cat dirty
flour at $l2 a ham 1 alt last u inter; and we know
that (or one we shall kick against the soullc**a mo
nopoly that fatted at the expense of the health of
the consnnwrs, lo the best of our ability. The crop
of this county is in the hands of certain tnanufteta
rrrs, who uro endeavoring to control the market.
If the citizens nl this borough wish to buy their
bread at a reasonable price—at a huing price, they
ran do il by sending either to Cleveland or Buffalo.
If consumers arc wise, ilkj will not pamper hdoio

foreign speculators $lO pc? hbh, than homo* rjitciil*-

Eastern cities, in which each consumer it a stock

readers (he plan upon which these Associations are

of Meteorological...Precalculations based upon- the

■that certain rays of light polariied by-differing an

The position of the earth and the planetary bodies
being known, it is easy fur tho mathematician to
make his calculations with a degree of exactness
really surprising. Wc have carefully examined the

arc remarkably correct. Why have nut the so can#

When Ihe firs*, returns of the Pennsylva
nia Election were coming in, it was tele*
graphed all over ihe Union that the Nebras
ka Uemo'THcy curried the Slate by Thirty
Thousand majority. We have now the full
official Returns with the exception of Ihe
few scores of hundreds of voles cuM here
and there for Williamson, Martin, or Cleaver
—nil anti-Nebraska—and it is made certain
that
1. The plurality of the Nebras
ka candidate for the only Sore offi*-!*, over
Nicholson, his leading opponent, is but 11,-
526.
2. Fie is in a decided minori’y of the en
tire poll of the Stale—'he votes throw n away
or* Wi;h imson, Martin (K. N.) and Cleaver
(Native) being more <hau sufficient to have
elected Nicholson (Fusion). When all ih*
Scattering « r <' returned, we think Plumer will
have at least 2,500 less than a majority ol
lie* whole.
3. The vo’e for Plumer is less 'linn
th“ v-'ie f.r Bigler last year, when he wa
b -.nea 37,007 votes by Gov, Pollock. More
limn Forty Thousand who voted last year
have nol seen fit lo do so this Fall, because
of the hopeless distraction of (he Opposition.
4. The Opposition have losi the Lcgisla
luic through ihe result in four or five great
c unties—Philadelphia, Bucks, Chester, L:»n
e.is er, Allegheny*—where the Kno£*Nolb
pigs insisted on running tickets on their own
pn •‘rip’ive Platform, and the Whigs and
Republicans could not he induced to vol**
ih ise tickets. The Pittsburgh Gazette
stales that in that County alone, 1,500 Whigs
voted the Democratic ticket expressly to
overthrow the Know-Nothing*. Adams,
[h lawure. Schuvikill, Washington, and other
C'*unti*H, in addition to tho«e already men*
'toned, were ihus throwaway.—*Y, Y, Trib
