    The battle which David Wilraot is ma
king, almost single-handed, in Pennsylvania
should dnlist lor him the sympathy of all
generous hearts. Mr. Wilmot is apparently
no great favorite among the managing poli
ticians of any party, and has little assistance
in the canvass of the Stale. Had he been
able to secure the attendance on bis appoint
ments of his antagonist, Getn. William F.
Packer, he would have needed no other
help; hut the backers of the Pro-Slavery
candidate rigorously refused to let him speak
to the same audiences with Witmot. They
dare not let their blind followers see how
completely they have deserted the, cher
ished principles of Pennsylvania in subser
viency to the behests of the Slave Power.
Their own declarations, from which their
lips are hardly yet cold, that under no cir
cumstances would they consent to a further
diffusion of Slavery, are abundantly on re
cord ; yet they coldly turn their backs on
every profession, and. sordidly “crook the
pregnant hinges of the knee” where “thrill
may follow fawning.” Pennsylvania in
1819-20 stood almost unanimous against the
Extension of Slavery, and James Buchanan
personally and unqualifiedly approved that
ftand. In 1847, Pennsylvania pronounced J
unanimously through her then strongly
Democratic delegation in Congress, in favor
of the same principle embodied in the “Wil
mot Proviso,” and Adam Ritter, the foun
der and lifelong editor of the Reading “Ad--
ler,’’ the “Dutch Bible” of Berks County,
united in that vote. Now Ritter is dead,
and that same 'Adler is making its readers
believe that to act as Ritter voted ten years
ago is to favor Abolition, incendiarism and
disunion. This could not effectually be done
if the Free Soil side of the question were
fairly before the whole people; but there
ate more than One Hundred Thousand Vo
ters in Pennsylvania who never hear that side.
If Judge Wilmot is beaten, it will be by the
vote of this vast body whom our arguments
never reach. If there had been a paper
printed or generally circulated in Pennsylva
nia which gave full and fair accounts of this
latest struggle on the one hand to extend, on
the other to restrict, the power of Slavery,
including the doings in Kansas throughout
the last three years, we are confident that
Wilmot’s majority next month would be very
large. The People of that Slate are mainly
honest but deceived ; they need only to know
the truth and they will heed it. Let every
Free Stale man among them appoint himself
a Committee of enlightment, and be active
in that capacity henceforth till the Election.
A few thousand copies of Dr. Gibon’s ac
ccouot of Gov. Geary’s experiences in Kan
sas lent from neighbor to neighbor, could not

Tobacco in Cuejidng Counts.— Many
of our readers, we presume, are not aware
of ihe extent to which the tobacco crop is
planted in this county. In the town of Big
fiats we learn there are about eleven hundred
acres planted wi:h tobacco. The (own of
Chemung has also a very large amount of
land in tobacco. In fact, we believe, there
is no town in the county which has not a con
siderable amount of the weed id prospect.—
It is a very lender crop to.; raise in this sec
tion, but when it succeeds well it is extremely
profitable. We understand that the prospects
for this year are entirely satisfactory to those
interested. —Elmira Advertiser,
We have in our sanctum an admirable
Photograph likeness of Hon. David Wilmot,
Hie “dangerous 11 Republican nominee for
Governor who caused Packer to bent such a
precipitate leireal. When we look at the
fconesi, resolute features of our gallant stand
ard bearer, we do not much wonder that
packer incontinently sought safely behind the
■tale Cnmimuee. A glance from the steady
we of \Vjlmot would well nigh wither a
■doughiace” like Packer, and cause him to
■iriuk nviay out of sight. —Erie Constitu

OPPOSITION TO RKill PRICES.
IVO IONOFOLIES:
- DOWN WITH COMBINATIONS.
An Open Field for Competition.
KANSAS has bad her share of the Glory, Fun,
Confusion &c M and I am happy to state that
she is about quieting herself and yielding the palm
to the little village of Tioga.
About the first of November last I commenced
selling Goods in Tioga, am still selling. For a little
time past there has been quite an effort on the part
of some to establish a standard price for goods par
ticularly on leading articles the very articles of
which the poor man uses the most. A few days
since 1 made up my .mind to change my prices .on
ELOtJR & MEAL,
as I thought I had a right to. I therefore had a
very modest handbill printed informing the people of
what I' intended doing in the future. No sooner bad
the fact become known that I bad reduced the price,
than one man selling the same kind of Goods, says:
“Its a lie! Cco’t be the same article! I know it
ain't good!” Another, interested in keeping up
old fogy prices, presents the documents to show that
from the prices he pays in Buffalo for Flour, Meal
&c., of coarse ETZ'S article at the low price can
not be as good as ours at our high prices. Great
discovery I. Sensible reasoning I Humbug conclu
sion I
How long since did they find out that my articles
were not lip-lop? Why, Just the moment my price
did not agree with theirs. Our bnly'answer to their
unkind remarks toward us, is, that our dour was
very nice until wc changed the price. Did that
change the quality 7 when it is the selfsame article
we have sold since last April. Hundreds can bear
me witness that it is os any article they ever
used.
It lias never been our practice nor never will be
to say aught of the quality of our neighbor’s goods.
But we do aay that our "extra superfine” and “su
perfine” flour is as good as any flour manufactured
or sold in Tioga County. You citizens that buy
don’t.longer believe the humbug yarn that you must
pay from 50 to 75 per cent for goods, especially if
you get trusted a few months. No wonder every
plank in the Wellsboro* and Tioga Plank Road has
received a thousand curses from the merchants of
Tioga village, because it has driven trade from us,
.they say. The curses will grow louder and deeper
both from buyer and seller until Goods arc sold at
a reasonable cash profit. Since we commenced wc
have tried to meet the wants of the public, and we
flutter ourselves that* bar large cash sales are good
evidence that our effort has not been a failure, but
has been appreciated by a generous and candid pub.
lie. We shall continue selling Goods in the corner
store of A. C. & J. S. Bush, directly opposite of
Baldwin, Lowell &. Co., where we shall be pleased
to show our Goads and give our prices. We shall
buy a large stock of all kinds ot Goods in New
York this fall, and shall hope by pursuing a straight
forward course to merit the favor of enough of the
people of Tioga county to sell them and get our pay.
We shall try and have the quality and price satis
