FOR JUDGE OF TJIE SUPREME COURT Joupl):ington, OF ARMSTRONG COUNTY. FOR CANAL COMMISSIONER Jacob ijciffman, OF BERKS COUNTY. Our Flag We this day hoist at the head of our paper, as our candidates, the names of WINFIELD SCOTT, of New Jersey, fur President, - and WILLIAM A. GRAHAM, of North Carolina, for Vice• President of the United States. •10 Ge W neral Scott C YeeOgUIZO, the glorious old Hero of Chippewa, and of Liindy's Lane— the great Captain who, with but 1100 untried troops; met, fought and conquered 4000 oldie bravest veterans, of the re) g flowcr of the Brit. ish army, in one of the bloodiest pitched bat tles fought during the war of 1812—the General who never shrunk before a superior force, but always went into a fight with the same sure confidence in ,the courage cf his troops, which they had in hie great skill and military science. We know him ar. the. compieror of Mexico, whose campaign from Vera Cruz to the last battle in the valley, was a series of the must brilliant triumphs to be found in the history of the world. We honor him.too for his humanity, for his diivotion to the health and comfort of his sel. diem in their camps; for his exposure of his life in attendance upon his men when sick and wounded. \\lllness his devotion when his lit tle band on their passage to the \Vest, were mostly stricken down with that terrible scourge —the cholera, and his medical officers being unable to attend to all of them, the old man personally attended upon every one who was sick. lie cast aside all official station, and ad mihistered to their wants, relieved their suffer ings, encouraged their hopes, and soothed the dying hours el thoso who were beyond relief. %Ye love and honor the man because he loved and honored his soldiers, and always stood by ,them in' their greatest hardships. We trust in General Scott's love of his coun try, because he earrics on his body sears re ceived in war against the enemies of his coun try. And we trust in him most implicitly, be cause in every position in which he was ever placed, he always fully and , completely per farmed the duties devolved upon him, in such a mariner that he . merited and received 'the commendation of the goverorneet. He was engaged, from the moment he enter ed the army, in all the most important battles fought on the northern frontier during the last war. with England, and so much gallantry and skill did he display, that at the early age y 23 years, he was created by President Medison and his Cabinet, a Major General of the U. S. Army—an honor accorded to no other man at beet' an early age. And berme he was 30 years old, Madison offered hint the high office of Secretary of War—a station at that time ot the utmost importance to the country. Madi son was a very cautious man, and would nev er have tendered such an appointment to so young a man, if he had nut possessed the most thorough military and civil qualifieutions quisite for such a responsible post. General Scott was next sent by President Jackson to settle the nullification Iron tiles in South Carolina, and likewise to superintend the removal of the Indians west of the Mississippi. And so ably and faithfully did he perform these dudes—so conciliatory and kind, so firm and indefatigable was he, that he received the thanks of the people of Georgia, Alabama, North and South Carolina, and of General aek son and Gen. Cass, (then Secretary of War.) and the next election will prove, notwithstand ing all the blustering of the Disunionists, that the people of that region regard his servi ces with respect and admiration. President Van Buren selected General Scott, from anion all the publid men and officers ut the United States, its the man best fitted to conciliate the people, and settle andeably the difficulties on the Canadian at•.d Nonh Eastern Frontier. These delicate duties were so ac complished as to acquire for him the wannest compliments from the administration, (politic ally opposed to hint) and to excite the triend ship of the people of western New York, Ver mont and hlaine. And next November will show that they v. ill give him the largest vote any President ever.r.m'eived in that region. Take hitn everywhere, tinder all kind of eir• eumstances, and hid lite exhibits the same no• blo and generous feeling, the. Fillne kinit con sideration for the welfare et otherS, the same courage and daring on the field of battle, and the same high intelligence. No spot or Worm ish rests upon his military, his civil or private character. Ile is universally admitted to be the greatest captain of the age, and die - great. est-pacificatorof this country. General Scott stands too on tho Whig Plat form—he goes fully and squarely for the com promise measures, which we have, in com mon with the people of Lehigh, always advo. ceted; and by accepting the Whig nomination with the Platform, he iii pledged to maintain those measures. • As Pennejebranians, we cannot hesitate be tween' the old Hero, and the obscure New Hampshire Lawyer: - Pierce has always been bitterly . oppopedio .allording any protection to Ponnsylvania's Iron and Coal. In fact, be is avowedly for Free Trade, arid so are the men who nominated him. General Scott on the contrary, has always been, and is now in favor of a 'l'arifl which will enable Pennsylvania to dig her Iron and Coal out of her hills and moan tains, to put and keep'in operatibn her furna ces; forges, foundries and rolling mills, to give employment at gc3Zrtiaorraid her citizens, and thus by creating u home market, to afford her farmers a constant and steady market for their produce. Ile ices the heavy debt, and large interest we have to pay, and knows that the only way for us to pay all off, will be to foster our peculiar business, and encouragemur people in developing our miuntal resources, and we are satisfied that he will heartily co operate in all Tariff labor which will make Pennsylvania the greatest Stare in the Union. The great Keystone state will bn lecreaTilff her duty and to herself, it her vote is not given for Scott and Graham. But it wiil be. From all -quarters-of-the_State r and_from_all_sectilins_oL the country %:o hear that the people are rally ing around the old Ilero of Chippewa; and wo firmly believe that on the 4th of March next, he will take possession of the White llonse. William A. Graham, our candidate for Vice Preddent, has been twice Governor of ,North emolim f.ur many years a member of the U. S. Senate and !louse of Representatives, and recently Secretary of War. In all . those situa tions he has proven himself a wise legislator, and an accomplished statesman, and a firm Tariff man. North Carolina will go for Scott and Graham with a very large majority. Having tl.e monist confidence in the hones ty of purpose, thorough political knowledge, great love of country, and lofty patriotism of Scekt and Graham, we fling their banner to the breeze; confident-Mat Pennsylvania_will—vote for them, and that they will certainly be elected. Whig County Ticket In the proper place will be found a li t of the candidates for the respective offices for the county and di,tricts. IVe have but little time to day, to speak 61 them in detail. We know them all to be good and true men. Joints IV. Feller, Grq. , who is recommended as the candidate forStaic Senator from the coun ties of Lehigh and Northampton; and Ephraim Grim, Esq. ; the Legislative candidate for the district composed of the counties of Lehigh and Carbon, are both well known to the people of this county, as intelligent, active and practical business once. The Legislative interests of their respective districts, and of the State can, not, we are confident, be 4:unrested to •safer, more economical and more industrious hand.l. They ate boll kVbigs trout principle, and not for partizan purposes. They are bath thorough ly sound upon all goestiJns of State and Na tional it:wont:nee, and we bespeak !or them in the counties of Northampton and Carbon re spertively, what we believe they will receive in Lehigh a cordial support at the election in ()ember.

They commence with our immediate neighbors, in the street we live on, and are to be found in the different wards of the city,tlie districts unite county, and the counties of the whole Slate. We can name a single district in a neighboring 'court., ty in which thirty six voters who voted for Cass four years ago now repudiate Pierce. We think we can name a county hard by where the Whig gain upon the last election will be from three. to five hundred votes. We now believe we shall gain in every or nearly every Middle Tennessee county. Our news from East Tennessee we have not heard su definitely, Inlt we believe we are there too on gaining ground. We do not care to boast, but we rejoice that the people of noble, patriotic Tennessee, are with us, and we cannot help saying so. Huzzah for SCOTT and GnAnam.—Nashville Banner. Death of Hydrophobia Wo learn that on Sunday last, al 5 o'clock in tho morning, John Knauss, aged about 9 years, son of 'Mrs. Anthony Knauss, of I lanover town ship, Lehigh county, died from the shocking e fleets of Ilydrophobia. Thu choutustances are as Blows: It appears that late boy in com• patty with another who had his dog with hint, were going to school together, arriving before school hour, the boys got to riding and playing with the dog. Little Knauss remarked to the other boy, that if the dog could ho rode like a horse, he ought to be shod too; in saying so lie took up one of his fore paws, when the dog flew at hire and bit him in the arm and in the ear. The dog was taken from the boy, after which he fled, and before he was overtaken and killed, he had bitten a hog, and several other dogs, all of which got read. The boy was attended by malical ahr, amid the ordinary pre= scription was given him ; finding no particular symptoms arise, the mother felt easy, thinking _a_eure.had_been_ellected—About_theleginning_ of last week, however, he complained of hav ing a kind of dullness and slight pain in his head, which gradually increased, until on Fri day morning; after ho got up, he went to the primp, and being very dry, drank freely, a short time after lie felt sick on the stomach, which ii'd4 followed by severe vornithig. Ile'related to his ;nether this: he dreaded the sight of water, this with the bewildered appearance of his eyes _ware the fire symptoms of the dreadful disetex. His situation from this time on through the remaining few hours of his life was truly lam entable. The case obtained its worst phase to wards night, when he was taken with violent paroxysms, the spasms increasing fast, with a rapid (lox of saliva, at first frothy and viscid, but afterwards less tenacious, and made up of froth -and-a-glairy fluid, which he sputtered forth forc ibly, while his strength continued, clutching at it with his hands, sometimes as if to tear it away from his recoil,. His countenance was now at times distorted, his brain frenzied and his teeth. grating and 'washing. Ile continued in this aw- ful condition until about 5 o'clock on Sunday morning ; when his strength having so far failed as to prevent his dislodging the fast accumulat , ing saliva, his throat gradually filled with it, and he expired. Railroad Prospects We notice that attention has been drawn to the Beaver :Meadow Railroad within the last few days, and both shares and loans are steadily advancing. We understand that this lalprove• meat of prices results as well from the pro 4• porous condition of the Beaver Meadow Com pany, as front the fact that such arrangements are about being perfected as will ensure the early completion of the Dela Ware, Lehigh and Susquehanna Railroad, from Elston to Mauch Chunk, tints. tormit:g a continuous Railroad from the middle coal basin to New Yolk city. The Directors of the Beaver Meadow Railroad yesterday granted permission to the Delaware Lehigh and Susquehanna Railroad Company to occupy the six miles of their graded road eastward Ira m Mauch Chunk. Probably in less than a year and a half from this time coal will be carried direct into New York by this route. And in about the same time the pro. posed road from this city to Easton aid the Delaware Water Gap, will also be in operation. The work is in the hauls of men of enterprise, and is sure to go spiritedly ahead. Of its pay ing well, no one entertains a doubt who has given the twitter examination. Democratic County Convention. The Demoelatie county Delegate Conven tion came Oil On Satinday last, at the house of Mr. John Schantz, in North IVhiteliall, and slier a good deal of shaping and matueuvring of the leaders ; the following ticket was placed in newel:mon : Congress—S.iniuel A.

Scott received from the chief citizens of Mexico, alter the con clusion of the treaty of peace, to take upon ;tlmoolf the government of the country, to be sustained by au ample revenue. and the army of 12,000 Americans who were ready to re enlist under him, is truly stated. This history given of the matter by Mr. Stevens, of Penn sylvania, is no doubt authentic and was de rived from Gen. Scott. The same interests in Alexico which sought, through this offer, to es tablish the government on a secure basis, now seek a war with the United States. Iff is, how ever, hardly worth beiltg taken as a gift, much less at the expense of 111E3 or treasure. But it must come to us, by annexation, the "whole boundless continent" must be ours.

Gen• Jackson and the Tariff• The following letter, written by Jackson to Dr. Colman, in 1824, and re•allirtncd by him in a let- ter to Goy. gay, of Indiana, in 1828, is a good exposition of the Whig policy on the question: Wasatxal•ov, April 28, 1824. Heaven-smiled-tipon-usi-and-gave-us-liberty and independence. That same providence has blessed us with the means of national indepen dence and national defence. If we omit or re fuse to use the gilts which have been extended to us, we deserve not the continuance of his blessings. He has filled our mountains and our plains with minerals—with lead, iron and cop per—and giving us a climate and soil for the growing of hemp and wool. These being the great materials of our national defence, they ought to have extended to them adequate and fair protection, that our manufactures and laborers may be placed in a fair competition with those of Europe, and that we may have within our country a supply of those leading and important articles so essential in war. I will ask where-is-the-real-situation-of-the agricultuvist ? Where has the American farmer a market for his surplus produce? Except for cotton he has neither a foreign nor home mar, ket. Does not this clearly prove, when there is no market at home or abroad, that there is too much labor employed in agriculture? Common sense atonce points out the remedy. Take ag• riculture in the United Stares, six hundred thou sand men, women and children, and you will at once give a market for more breadstuffs than all Europe now furnishes us. In short,sir, we have been too long subject to the policy of British merchants. It is time we should become a little more Americanized, and instead of feeding pa'u pers and laborers of England, feed our own ; or else, in a short time, by continuing our i present policy, we shall all be rendered paupers oar selves.. It is, therefore, my opinion that a careful and judicious tariff i 4 much wanted to pay our na tional debt, and to afford us the means of that defence within ourselves, on which the safety of our country and liberty depends ; and last, though not least, give a proper distribution to our ldbor, which must prove beneficial to the happiness, in depencencc and wealth of the community. I am, sir, most respectfully, Your most ob't serv't ANDREW JACKSON. What was the true doctrine then, is the true doctrine now. It is high time we should be come Americanized, provide for American labot rem instead of British paupers, and elect Amer ican and nut British candidates. What Georgia Politicians Say A. 11. Stephens, said at Crawfordsville, in his recent speech, that "the Democratic Convention; by which Gen. Pierce was nominated, was com• posed of freesoilers, abolitionists, secessionists, tariff men and nnti•taritf men, internal improve. went men and anti•internal improvement men, the advocates of intervention and non-interven tion—politicians of every shade and complexion found a welcome to this mongrel associatton.— Their object was power and office, and they car.. ed nothing for principle. With a body thus composed, it cannot be a matter of much sur prise that all the ablest and best statesmen of the party should be sacrificed and set aside, while some unknown, unrxpected, but thought to be an available individual, should be taken up as the instrument of the party. The result is known. A gentleman was nominated ; and was now a prominent candidate for the first office in the world, who was unknown to nine tenths of the American people' and whose public services did nut entitle him to the position. Mr. Stephens would say nothing in diaparagement of General Pierce. As far as he knew, he was a man of fair ability, a lawyer of sotne eminence in his own State, and that was all that could be said of him. Be had never given the country any evi• deuce of the possession of those high qualities, or that long experience in public affairs which should entitle a man to be placed in the high and responsible office of Chief Magistrate of this gnat Republic. Ile had nothing to expect from the election of General Pierce, except the bring ing into power of a class of men whose princi ples would be hostile to the true interests of the people. lie feared that the advocates of Kos suth, Ink rvention and Young America progress, would lead the country to war and destruction, under the banner of that party. lliehigan.The Detroit 'Tribune States that Michigan never gave a majority of its popular vote for a locofoco Presidential candidate: that the Whigs of that State, in consequence of itn, perfect organization, have never polled a full vote, even in 1840, when Harrison's popular ma• jority was 1,802; that at present the Whigs are perfecting their organization all over the State, that Gen. Scott is the favorite candidate of the people of Michigan, that the Free Soil Whigs and many Free Soil Democrats will vote for him, that hundreds of Democrats will go the Whig ticket, on account of the defeat of Gass at Balti more, and for the reason that Pierce is known to be bitterly opposed to all sorts of River and Harbor Improvements. For these, among other valid reasons, the Tribune conclUdes that Mich. igen may safely be set down in the Whig col, umns as certain for Scott and Graham. We think so too. . Muss Meeting of the Democracy.—The great mass meeting of the friends of Pierce and King, In the ten upper townships, according to notice, came off at Kintnersville, Bucks county, on Sat urday last. After all the blustering, bragging, and drumming up of recruits which has been going on for weeks past, the whole thing turned out to be a perfect fizzle. Not 150 people were present, and of these a large portion were from Doylestown. Speeches were then made by some of our Democratic Lawyers, and the people, what few were present, went home perfectly satisfied that they had been fooled, and there was no earthly chance for their party candidate. A more perfect failure was never known in the county, and it shows conclusively that the nias• ses are going for the Hero 'of Lundy's Lane.--. We hope our Locofoco friends will get up a few more mass meetings like that at Kintnersville. It will save us the trouble in the campaign.— Doyleifoton lnlcllfgenccr.• Attention Soldiers !!

OF TUC OLT SCOTT GUATIII A Sign from lowa.—We rejoice to see that the lowa Sluats.Zedung, which has been published for the last four years at Dubuque as a demo. cratic paper, has, withdraWn the names of Pierce and King from its columns, and raised the flag of Scott and Graham. The large gains of the Whig party at the recent election in that State, predicated upon the then late nomination of Scott, and the ardor with which the Whigs arc entering into the canvass, with many encour^ aging signs from the numerous and intelligent German population in the State, leave us little room to doubt that we shall carry lowa trium. phantly for the Whig ticket. We warmly wel come the Staats.Zeitung as a co,laborer in the good cause. A Half Dozen Candidates. The Southern Rights Convention have nominated Gov. Troupe of Georgia, fur the Presidency. We thus have six candidates in the field, and we give theM al phabetically —Goodall, Abolition ; Hale, Free Soil ; Pierce, Democrat; Scott, Whig ; Troupe, Southern Rights; and Webster, American and National. As the hump - backed Richard said ' , methinks there be six Richmonds in the field" and five have been slain already. Scull in Californiu.—The Aita California (in. dependent party,) of the morning after the teccp• tion of Gen. Scott's nomination at San Francis- 1121321 nThe nominations of the Whig National Con vention have been received in this city with the greatest satisfaction. No sooner had the news spread than cannons were discharged, bonfires lighted, cheers given and all other demonstrations of delight indulged in. The gratification is evi. dently intense, almost amounting to enthusiasm. This arises in a great measure from the fact that it was generally expected, if not wished, that Gen. Scott would be the nominee. The fact an. sweritt so well to the anticipation has probably begotten the idea that Scott was really the choice of the Whigs of California. , And such, we are inclined to believe, was really the case, albiet there is now and then a grumbler who regrets that Mr. Webster was not nominated. Having fur a lung time assumed it for granted that Scott would be nominated, we have had nu difficulty in persuading onrsepres that he was the must available candidate that the Whigs could bring into the field." Ohio.—Andrew Stuart is the Opposition can, didate for Congress in the Steubenville District. William G. Graham, is the Free Democratic par, ty candidate of the Xllth District. The Mount Gilead (Marrow county,) Sentinel says that at a Democratic primary election in Bennington township, on last Saturday, a meeting was or ganized, comprising all the Democratic voters present, nearly seventy, and resolutions adopted denouncing the Baltimore Democratic Conven tion and its nominees, and pledging themselves to use all honorable means to secure the elec. tMn of Hale and Julian. ..The Odious Ilan/•rupl Law." --We frequently . hear Democratic orators speak of the "Odious Bankrtipt Law" as a Whig measure. It is well enough, under such circumstances, says the ed. itor of the Lynchburg Virginian, to let the peo. pie know, that W. IL King, the Democratic can. didate tor the Vice Presidency in 1852, voted for that identical measure—!odious" as it is. He also voted for the United States Bank Charter, which that party consider the strongest proof of Federalism. WOrkings of fhe Locofuco Turiff.—The import of Railroad Iron in 1851 was double what it was in 1850. A table, published in Hunt's Maga" sine, makes the import of 1850 about _seventy thousand tons, and the import of 1851 over one hundred and forty.one thousand tans. A large portion of this iron has been paid for in bonds of the companies on whose account irwas purchhs• ed. The remainder remains unpaid, or has been liquidated by exports, either of specie or of ata•• pies. • Cir The Whig Confereen of Bucks and Lehigh will meet on 1419ndny next in Quakertown.

Governor flobeh Lucas, formerly of Ohio, and' for many years of lowa, has taken the stump for Scott and Graham. No one in Ohio will dispute• Lucas's Democracy. And there are hundreds of Democrats in lowa who have come out in the same way.
