GENTLEMEN ow MOONING :—You are to be commended for assembling yourselves as men opposed to the administrations At Harrisburg and Washington, and I am glad to contribute to your proceedings the expression of" some few earnest words: An issue between power and liberty is dis tinctly presented to us by the policy of our rulers, and if we stand indifferent to it, or ac quiesce in its decision according to the plea bure of those who aspire to be our masters, what shame will be ours ! what loss and in jury ! what degradation and eternal diagrac4 ! By liberty I do not mean license, but that regulated freedom established by our ances tors which we have enjoyed hitherto without question, and the example of which we have held' forth proudly before other nations as the reproof of their systems and the glory of our own. By power I do not mean legitimate authority, but authority usurped and lawless, pursuing its own ends over a broken Constitution and through the baleful flames of third war. Between these—between power. and liberty —can you hesitate in your choice?' Will you hold up a balance and weigh, doubtfully, the arguments which sustain liberty against those who oppose it ? Necessity—safety—are these the magical words by which despotism is to be changed 'in character and made fit for our adoption ? Shall the plea of tyrants be accepted as our standard of public rule ? Shall we concede force, and and justice, and .wisdom, to one of the most impudent, false and injurious doctrines ever intruded into the discussion of publists affairs T But there is a necessity (quite different from that asserted on behalf of power) which we must new admit as most evideot and urgent— a necessity that we rid ourselves of those who plead necessity as the justification of their misdeeds. Those who cannot govern lawfully and justly are not to govern at all, but to give place to others. For it is monstrous to say that the incapable and vicious shall lord it over their fellows. The rulers who say they cannot govern by law and according to right,•stand self-condemned. Judged out of their own mouths, they are unfit for rule and should be voted out of power. Gentlemen, the greatest son of New England spent most of his life and won his great fame in this Commonwealth. We are proud that he became a Pennsylvanian, and took rank in our history with the founder of this State—with the• illustrious man who established it "in deeds of peace." Let us try the logic of ty ranny by the judgment of that great man. Let ns invite the apologist of arbitrary power and advocate of " strong government," who fills our ears with impassioned discourse upon pub lic safety, and national life, and necessity, to go with us to our great commercial metropolis and there stand with us beside the modest slab . which marks the resting.place of "Benjamin and Deborah Franklin." Oh ! hew mean, and pitiful, and low, and utterly false and detest able will there sound all these apologies for wrong—all these pretexts for stealing away, or taking away from the people the rights and liberties achieved for them by the great men of former times I We will hear the voice of Fianklin sounding in our ears those memora ble words of wisdom and warning which should be written up or hung up in great letters wherever the people meet for consultation . in times of public danger :—" Tame wno WOULD GIVE UP ESSENTIAL LIBERTY TO PUR CHASE A LITTLE TEMPORARY SAFETY DESERVE NEITHER LIBERTY NOR SAFETY." Gentlemen, your political opponents think that patriotism should be called loyalty, and made to consist in unconditional, unquestion ing devotion to an administration of the gov ernment. I believe you will agree with me that this great virtue requires no new name borrowed from the literature •of monarchy ; that it is shown in devotion to the Constitution and laws of the United States and of the sev eral States, and that the true patriot regards public officials with a respect precisely pro portioned to their gbservance of law, justice and right, and to their skill, wisdom and honesty in the performance of their public duties. Judge your public . men fairly but freely. Let no man put a, padlock upon your lips, nor impose upon you any of the false and perni cious sophisms of arbitrary power. An important election approaches in this Commonwealth, and another important one succeeds is next year. At these, you are re quired to judge those who have ruled or mis ruled you since 1860, and to determine, as far as your votes will go, the policy of the future. You need no labored exhortation- from me to inspire yon with zeal, courage, determination and fidelity in the discharge of your electoral duties. Behold the evils which afflict the nation and the dangers which threaten it ! These exhort you, beyond art of mine, to right action, and justify that opinion which we hold in common, that upon Democratic success in the elections just mentioned. depend. the ex istence of free, liberal and just government in this country ; a restoration of Union fel:tided in consent ; the avoidance of future wars, and the preservation and growth ` of that material prosperity which results from good govern ment when vouchsafed to an united, industri ous 'and virtuous people. I am, your fellow-citizen, and obedient ser vant, C. It. Buctraitaiw. WM. DOCK, Ir., & Co MONDAY MORNING, AUG. 31, 1863 LETTER FROM MR. BUCKALE fr. slcWorks of Franklin, by liparlq, v. 111, pp. 107 429, 430. This was the declaration of the Provincial Aesembly of Pennsylvania. November 11, 1755 in ,newer to Gov ernor Morris, upon the question of exempting Proprie. tary property from taxation Despite the eat of In • dien depredati, ns in the border settlomente and the danger of extended hostilities the Assembly refused an appropriation of money for military purposes unless the same should be raised or repaid in a just manner, by p'acing the burden equally upon the property and resources of the colony. "'quality of taxation as an csaontica principle of itb«rty was then eterniy vitdics, ted by the men of P. nue , lv Dia, an military *ecesxsty was plead to them in vain as a rea.lon for surrendering or waiving thi it rights as freemen, and ben ing their backs to a burden of injustice. Dr. Frankl n was a member of the Assembly a-d prepared most of the documents on its behalf, in the dispute.—See Life by Spoke, Works, e. A pp 17949, no. GOV. SOLOMAN is the only Northern Repub lican Governor who, while supporting the ad ministration, has performed his duty towards his own citizens. 'Wing a dirty pack of Ano litionists at Monroe proposed to administer to their Democratic neighbors an oath of allegi ance, Governor Solowin told them that hat was an illegal act and that while he was Gov ernor it should not be done in Wisconsin For that and similar acts be bas been overthrown by his party—by the Booth men and original disunionists. Governor Soloman deserves a good word from every man who respects law. No.gang of convalescent soldiers have ruled his State as in lowa. No mob has dictated tame to his constituents, nor did he ever stoop to tell his partisan friends that if they killed PRICE TWO CENTS he would pardon—if they would knOck down or assault, he would remit. fines. The parallel of the Governor of lowa does not crawl.—Du buque Herald. THE PENNSYLVANIA DEMQcRACE Of all the elections this fall none exceed in importance he election in the Keystone State ; and nowhere are both the platform and the candidates more worthy of an endorsement by the people. The principles advocated are pre cisely those of the model platform of New York, and now embodied, as a touchstone, in the pop ular heart through the country ; while the ticket, for ability, high toned character, and patriotism, is every way worthy of the momen tous hour The proceedings of the noble gatherings that are seen all over the Keystone State have the ring of the hest da)s of• the National Democ racy. The orators do not spare Jeff. Davis or the rebellion—nor do they spare the introdu cers of arbitrary power ; but they deal out even-handed justice to both ; and among the speakers are Democratic statesmen, who have enjoyed the confidence of the people of this State. and, by their patriotism and ability, won a national reputation. The addrees-of the Democratic Committee arraigns with the force of truth, and in a states manlike way, the anti-law party at the North, and is a Very able paper. It is Union to the core. 'tare is one of its sentences "The reunion of the States can alone give them their old security at home, and power and dignity abroad ;" and it advocates the policy that alone will give this Union—that of fidelity to the principles of the Federal Con stitution. The candidate, Judge Woodward, has a re cord which for character, ability, statesman ship and public services, commands the respect of the good and true men of all parties ; and his selection by the Convention—such is • his downright honesty of purpose and noble qual ities of heart and mind—is like going back to the earlier and purer days of the Republic. It is related that he has not had, hanging about him, a parcel of greedy partisans work ing for his *lamination i but as he was quietly discharging his duties in, the Supreme Court, the people claimed him tor their candidate. He at first declined the nomination, but was induced .to accept it' for the sake of his coun try. " Constitutional Union and Liberty accord ing to American law" is one of the sentiments of a noble Union speech fitly made in Inde pendence Square by Judge Woodward. In another speech he beautifully and eloquently remarked : " These States are glorious in their individuality, but their collective glories are in the Union. By all means, at all hazards, are they to be maintained in their integrity and the full measure of their constitutional rights— for only so is the Union to be preserved—only so is it worth preserving. It is the perfection of the prismatic colors, which, blended, pro 'duce the ray of light. It is the completeness of these assembled sovereignties, lacking noth ing which they have not lent for a great pur pose, that makes the Union precious. This word Union is a word of gracious omen. It im• plies confidence and affection—mutual support and protection against external dangers. t lt is the chosen expression of the strongest passion of young hearts. It is the charmed circle within which the family dwells. It is man helping his fellow-man in this rugged world. It is States, perfect in themselves, confederated for mutual advantage. It is the people of States, sepa rated by lines, and interests, and inefittitione, and usages, and laws, all forming one glorious nation—all moving onward to the same sublime destiny, and all instinct with a common life. Our fathers pledged their lives, their fortunes and their peered honors, to form the Union— ist ours be pledged to maintain it." These are patriotic words of a patriotic man. " In all qualifications," a political opponent, David Paul Brown, writes in his Forum, "of the judicial character, extensive legal learn._ ing, sound morality, and most urbane and agreeable manners, there have been but few Judges in the State, perhaps in the country, who, at his age, have given promise of greater excellence or eminence than the Hon. George W. Woodward." Triumph in the election, under such circum stances, would be a triumph that would rejoice the truly loyal of the whole country ; . and the zeal with which the Democracy are working warrants the conviction that tremendous as are the influences arrayed against it—the hordes of contractors—the patronage of the govern ment—the body of the fanatics—and the un scrupulous partisan managers—a good cause will triumph over them all, and that this noble candidate will be the next Governor of Penn sylvania.—Boston Post. POLITICS IN THE PULPIT. [From the N. Y. Journal or Commerce.] Just now, as perhaps at no time before since the commencement of the war, we begin to ap preciate the great errors made by the clergy of some denominations, and • the church assem blies and judicatories of the eame denomina tions, in joining themselves to the world, and adopting worldly interests as the controlling motives of their action. The broad line which they have drawn between themselves and their Southern brethren ie now seen to be a line very hard to erase, very difficult to pass over, and the influence of the church over the minds and affections of men, an influence of the highest importance in the present emergency, is almost wholly lost. Strange as it may seem, it is actually true that when we some time since said that it was the first duty of the church to make men gaod men, and they would then be come good citizens, an "orthodox" religious paper in New England denied it entirely, and declared that it was the duty of the church to make men patriots first of all ! The excitement under which religion became politics, and mem bership or the Church of Christ became sy nonymous with memciership of a particular po litical p-rty, is Some portions of the country, will seem one of the most remarkable parts of our public history, when future generations review our story. "Our piety must take coun sel of our p-ttrivtism " was the infidel utterance of a Presbyterian clergyman in this city, and the sentiment has made many men forgetful of their highest duties within the past two years. This spirit has debased religion to the mere grade of partisan politics. It has dragged the kingdom Of heaven down to a level, in the popular mind, with the miserable initentious of human wisdom, whose foundations and en durance are dependent only on the breath of the Almighty. It is the most melancholy part of our present condition as a nation, that in so nanny Protestant denominations the people have lost respect for the church and ite minis.. tera. and throughout the land the wall has been broken down between church and world. Dis respect to the clergy is now visible everywhere. Churches are talked of as political machines, and in some parts of tho country they *are nothing else. Those steadfast, faithful men who have re fused to become the tools of party, and - to de grade their calling and their churches to the uses of worldly men, will stand preeminent in histcry ; but they, it is deeply to be regret.

It is time for the clergy whn are - responsible for thiti terrible state of things to reform. They begin to see it themselves. When they look back to the work they weiwotioe . engeged in, and its infinite reWarde, and then to. the work they are now engaged in, and its brief and un certain repayment, the very selfishness, of hu man nature arouses them to think. 'The ap plause of s political congrckationfislitit a contemptible exchange for the "well done" of a voice that they once regarded as Aheir,only guide. It will be but a little while before all the men and women who now listen and ap prove the foolishness of 'their preaching' will be in the dust around their churches, and it will matter nothing to any of them, or to the dead preacher himself, what king reigns in Europe, what people rule in America. With. that time of release from all concern about' polities in perpetual sight before him, the po litical clergymen of these days may well sit, remorseful, viewing his wasted months, while men were rushing to war and death, and he was forgetful of the great charge he had. The people in some parts of the land have been wholly without clergymen. .The latter have turned into political orators, and hav,e been making the temple consecrated to worship a place of brawling and contention. We heard a clergyman preach a sermon on the Lord's prayer, in which he said that we had no right, nor was it our duty to forgive our political enemies, and that the prayer for forgiveness as we had forgiven others, was not- based on any trespass other than of a personatandmri rate nature ! This horrible distortion of God's Word was actually made to defile the atmos phere of a New England' church on a calm summer morning, a church in which men were accustomed in other and-better years to hear the pure word of God from lips undefiled by the passionate wine of man's wrath, 'which maker' drunken so many in our , day. PERSONAL. The peculiar position of Captains 134Wyer and Flynn, who are under sentence of _death, as an act of reta t liation for Burnside hanging two Confederate officers, causes deep interest and sympathy. Mr. Lincoln very properly declares that he will hang Gen. Lee and Capt. Winder if Sawyer and Flynn are executed. As the former is the son of the rebel Commander in-Chief, and his companion in danger is the son of Gen. Winder, Governor of Richmond, it is not considered probable that Davis will fulfil his threat. If he does, however, there is no telling how far this lex tationk may not be carried. Fon some time past it has been the intention of Mr. Chase and his friends to organize a bank on the Nicholas Biddle dimensions, and last week a meeting of some of the great Re= publican financiers was held. Unexpected ob stacles arose, several of the initiated having doubts of the justice of swamping the smaller banks, who have stood so nobly ,by the govern ment. Gratitude and patriotism will, however, soon give way before the necessity of creating a money machinery to carry the nomination of Chase and Stanton. They have already the primary machinery in the Conscription bill, if it ever gets into working order. M. 'ASSISI'S has pahlisbed his speech on the affairs of the Suez canal in the shape of a monster advertisement. His points are that the Paella is independent in such matter, that the Sultan has nothing to do with the matter, that his 18,000 forced laborers are exceedingly well paid, that Mr. Hawkshaw, the English en gineer, sees no obstacle tor the works, that the canal will be opened in four years, and that all the opposition is an English intrigue / whieh imperial protection will neutralize. The Archduke Maximilian of Austria has sent the Pope a copy of the Emperor Nipo leon's letter, requesting him to accept the throne of Mexico, if chosen by popular suf frage. The young Archduke has informed the Pope that he is greatly disposed to accept the offer, and that in going to Mexico religions in terests will largely occupy his attenticin. The court of Rome is well satisfied with the pros pect. IN Utica, Judge Bacon, of the Supreme Court, has decided that a prisoner in custody of the United States cannot be released by State au thority, but molt sue out ge. writ of habeas corpus before a United States Judge_ Thie view is dissented from by Judge Mullen, but it is sus tained by Judge Smith, and will go to the fall bench of the Supreme Court for decision. Mrs. Elizabeth Sanford (formerly Mr Strea tor) 'reached her one hundreth birth Won the 28th tilt, at Windham, Portage county, Ohio. She was born at Monson, Massachusetts, and has resided several years with her son, John Streator, a lad of seventy-seven. The old lady has knit socks for the soldiers of three wars_ One of the facts revealed by the information now being collected by the Bureau of Military Statistics, at Albany, is that Major General H. W. HaHeck is a native of Waterville, Oneida county, N. Y., and that his grandfather, Jabez Halleck, now in his one hundred and third year, is still a resident of that town. John Conness, 11. S., Senator from California, is considered one of the ablest men that part of the world possesses. Mr. Seward said the other day of him, that be was a man of con science and courage. Another member of the Cabinet pronounced him to be a mixture of Ben Wade and Dave Broderick. The Hampshire papers record the death of Jane Hoskins, at Romsey, who was 109 years old. She was twice married!=first to a hawker, and secondly to a wood-cutter. She enjoyed throughout life good health, and her death re sulted simply from deoay. The candidates for the vacant Archbishohrig, created by the recent death of Archbishop Kendrick, are Bishops of Richmond, Va.; Wood, of Philadelphia, end Spaulding, of Louisville. Their names are to be sent to Rome, when the Pope will make the selection. Hon. Sherard Clemens publishes a card in the Wheeling (W.
