Just then there was a slight whisper
ing and Mary saw that her brother's
entrance occasioned both surprise
and pleasure. She looked at him
with admiration. lis had certainly
.paid some extra atteulion to his dress,
nnil was conspicuous for his fine form
und intelligent face.
'Well, my little sister, how are you
succeeding in your evening entertain
ment. To prevent a scolding to-mor
row I have come among you I did not
know Miss Thorn danced. I thought
she had too much mind for such frivoli
ty ;ind Grey by her side. After caper
ing about to-night like a grasshopper,
how is he fit to come into court on seri
ous business to-morrow?
Why, Henry! I shall tell Fanny U
what you have compared her partner.
JMr. Grey like a grasshopper! and
pi ay what is Miss Thorn like?'
t ;0h, I cannot possibly tell you whai
she is like, without it is a chameleon.
Now Miss Thorn this morning was a
icasonab'e conversant being, and to

'She is the samrsaid Mary, interrupt

said Fanny, pleasantly; 'I must make a

'Mary's spirits are high, and Misj
.Thorn's ears are familiar with compli

fused. ' What was the subject of his converation
with Miss Thorn we do not know;whelh

they converse about something until the
company separated, each declaring il
was an agreeable evening.
' But a day or two remained of Fanny's
visit, and her lovely manners, so devoid
of pretensions beyond her merit, had
made her coming departure a matter ol
.rrgrel to all who knew her. Parting ci
vililies flowed in upon her.
-Iiss Thorn does not return alone,'
said Mr. Dorrance to his sister.
Of course not.'

'11113 REMOVAL QUESTION.
As thero appears to be a Veneral deter
initiation on the part of the friends of Re
innval lo keep (he ball in motion, until a
favorable result shall be obtained, it is lime
that tho parly should bestir themselves for
the coming campaign It is important to
our succoss that we should elect both Sena
tor and member not only friendly to the
eause, but men who will bo faithful and
rue in ils advocacy, in fact thev must be
honest men. Men who will not look one
vay and row another With such men in
he Legislature, there can be no doubt in
he mind of -any man, but that tho qucsiion
will bo settled at the next session. So well
laliafied are our opponents of this, that no
neans however degrading will bo loft un
tied, no deception; liowover baso or low,
iul what they will resort to, to defeat the
remova-! candidates, Ibis fall as llieir last and
inly hope of pievoniing that justice being
lone to the cotlnty, for which tho people
have so long struggled, Already havo thev
.oinmenced a syst.eni of operations through
)ut the county to prevent a union among
the friends of removal, It is an old game
of theirs, it is true, but one which lias here
tnforo been of immense benefit lo them, and
will be the main spring to all llieir actions
it the coming election. It is In persuade
the people to sustain srparale and distinct
liolilical parly ticKcls. For this purpose
hoir cmisaric? embrace every opportunity
while travelling the rounly to urge that
measure. It is not confined to one party
nore than another. Party feeling and
party prejudices are appealed to with all
the hypocracy that a crockadilo is capable
of using bile shedding tears over its vie
im. Even going so, far, as to offer to a
handon their opposition lo removal if a
parly candidate should be brought into ht
field, and declaring their willingness ti
mpport a removal man. In fad, o few
lays since, a prominent man in Danville.
who spnnt weeks, and hundreds of dollars,
in Harrisburg, last winter to oppose tlip
Rotnoval bill, declared that he cared noih
ng for the removal, but would sacrifice the
eounty seat upon the alter of his parly.
Does any one believe this man sincere?
tie, woo, no longer ago than last winter,
public ly declared that he would rather sei
his buildings in flames, than that ihe remo
val should lako place, and that an advocate
if removal was worse than a highway rob
ier. we a-jain repeat, uoes anv one in
his common senses believe that this man U
willing within three months afier making
the above declaration, to give up the ques
lion for the sake of parly? Or rather
would you not believe that they were crock
ullle tears shod over the fate of his political
party, that he may accomplish an object
more dearer to him than its success, All
vho romember tho course of iho Danville
faction in llic-elcciion of Friiley and Jack
ion, in 1830 will at once see through his
hypocrasy, and discover, with half an oyo,
his rerl object. 'I hat object is nothing
more nor less, than to crealo a disunion in
the romoval, party. That effected, and de
feat they flatter themselves would bo ccr
tain. Ifis true, they care not, for whom
ihey vole, provided Ho ho pi elicit against
die Removal candidates, for the Legislature
or Senate,. bill let him bo an open und n
vowed ndvoeain of Removi.l, one upon
whnm the Removal parly can tuiile, and
ihoy would drop him like a hot pntatoc foi
all who know them, know that limy will
declare secretly to themselves, what Charles
Cook, the editor of the Danvillo Dcmncral
in an unguarded moment publicly declared
in Danville, n short time since, thai he
"NEVER WOULD VOTE. FOR A Mi
MOVAL MAN." And yet thrsn men
have the unblushing impotence to say, iha
ihey care nothinp about removal, and advo
catc the forming of political party county
tickets, for the sake of the parly. Wlnu
lidiculous nonsense. The veil is loo thin
to deceive even the most unsuspecting.
Let, then, every friend of Removal be on
his guard against tho wiles of these hypo
critical caiileiR,whosc only view is to defeat
the removal ticket, by any moans in their
powoi. Look upon every movement, let ii
come from whatever quarter il may, that is
calculated to create division among us with
regaid to our County Ticket, as coming
from your enemies, and intended by them
to defeat your favorite measure, which if
you are united this fall, will bo accomplish-
fd at tho next sefsinn of the Legislature.
ri.cn let us unitedly resolve lo give, in the
language of our late Representative Daniel
Snyder, Esq. "One (ire mure, my friends

ICPThe Editor of the Danvillo Demo
cral asks why the dumonaiic papers in thh
county do not publish Iho resolutions of the
Democratic National Convention. Why,
Charley, what is the matter with you ?
Are your eyes so much blinded with Clay
lhat you cannot read democratic papers? Ii
would seem so. For evoiy democratic pa
per in the county published the resolutions
weeks ago, and we verily believe wc shall
have to Poke (Polk,) that Clay out of your
oyes lhat you may hereafter be able to read
them. Upon reflection, however, we con
sider it unnecessary, as the people will do
it themselves next fall, so icA- and clean

Singular Incident and Fortunate Es
cape, On 1 uesday morning last, soon
after the family of Air. Joseph Furman, ol
this village rose from their beds, Mrs, Fur
man opened tho door into tho parlor, when
she was met by a volume of sniolio iesuini!
from the room. Upon the clearing away
of ihe (moke, sho was astonished at finding
a cotton carpet, which had covered the floor
entirely buttil up, and w hai was almost in
credulous tho straw which had been spread
under it, remaining untouched, Upon en
quiry, it was ascertained lhat ono ol the
children had, a short time previous lo going
to bed tho ovening before, went into the
room with n lighted candle, and probably
dropl some fire fium it, which catching, and
the door being immediately closed, g radii
ally consumed the carpet, there not being
air enough in Iho room to create a blaze.
Probably from this circumstance alone, the
building and perhaps the lives of the whole
family were fortunately saved frum destrue
lion.
A Clay man meeling a Democrat a few
days since, accosted him with, 'Well, loco,
how do ynu frcl about going up Salt River,

crat, 'wc have three or four limes had the
pleasure of rowing Henry Clay up to iho
head of it, and this fall we shall havo tho
gratification of Polking him about ils

Mn. Editoii :
In your 'ast Democrat 1 pn
ccjvo that you have published by icqttcst
in extract of tho minutes of the Susquehati
onh classis concerning mo. These inimitci
havu already been published in tho proper
.ugans of llic CJerinan reformed Synod, viz:
The Weekly Messenger & the Chriullich
.eitschrift; and if no oilier publia print lirtl
taken notico of said minutes, 1 would have
remained altogether silent on tho subjeel;
but seeing that the political press hits been
used tn make known ihe resolutions of an
erclciiaslical body, I thought duty to my
self as well aslo the congregations to whom
I dispense tho bread of life, prompted mi
io say a lew worus. ainre I havo iieen
living with my family in Cnlu.nbia county.
the people had abundant opportunities ol
becoming acquainted with me, I havo llieic
fore Lul a few fuels to stale for tho commu
nity at largo.
I was born and raised in tho bosom nl
the Cicrmaii Reformed church, for which
somo of my iincesiors us Huguenots have
sacrificed thrir lives. Afior having reneiv
ed a Classical education in ono of our Gym
nusiums, I devoted myself to the study id
Theology in two eminent Universities of
Germany, in one of which 1 graduated.
Eleven years ago 1 was examined by a
regular ecclesiastical body and ordained a
minister of tho German Reformed church
This ordination was proclaimed valid by
the German Reformed Synod, convened at
Lewisburg, October 1812. About a year
since I received n regular call from German
Reformed Congregations in Columbia
county, which call I at last after mature
deliberations accepted, us the pulpits no
more worn occupied by a reformed minis
ter. To seven congregations I preach since
fight months, the gospel according to the
doctrine of the Heidelberg Catechism and
ihe peace and harmony which prevails,
amorig them, ihe lo-e the people bear to
me, their full attendancn on divine worship,
and other blessed appearances, give mo the
rejoicing hope, that 1 am not laboring here
without the blessing of our Lord. My
congregations arc neither by a charter nor
by llieir constitutions bound to any Synod,
mil ihey know well lhat a characteristic
loature of iho Gcrnuu Reformed church is
their democratic republican government.
Nevertheless 1 have no objections, if they
place thelnselves under the jurisdiction of
the German Reformed Synod ami follow
their recommendation; such matters 1 leave
to iho free choice of tho people, and nevei
will force myself or got forced into congrega
lions against their will, as perhaps other
ministers believe It their duty to do, nut
withstanding tho disturbances they may
cause thereby. If the majority of my con
gregations think il belter for their spiritual
welfare to choose anothei pastor in my
placo, I am willing to resign any day trust
ing iirGod, who has given me faith and the
(tower of speech to proclaim 'the great truth
of justification by faiih, lo open unto me at
all times a field in which I can use His gifts
for the extension of His Kingdom and the
good of immortal souls. Sapicnti sat.
