Porflonal Detraction.
Mr. Curtiti has promised to conduct this
campaign without personalities, in a man
tier becoming a Pennsylvania gentleman,
aud Mr. Foster has nsertcd bis determina
tion to conllno the contest entirely to tho
political issues between tho two parties.
Those declarations of tho respective can
didates for Governor have been received
with pleasuro by all decent men, as prom
ising exemption during the campaign from
that system of personal detraction and
vituperation which has too often embittered
and disgraced our political struggles. It
is, however, worthy of remark that Mr.
Curtin's political friends have been the first
to violate this covenant of decency, and to
throw dirt at our candidate for Governor.
If thcro is a man iu tho State whose per
soual character should have protected him
from calumny, that man is Henry D.
Foster but it appears that no eharocter
is no exalted as to afford a protection from
tho poisoned arrows of detraction uud
Mr. Foster must incur all the personal
abuse that small minds can inflict upon a
great one.
A late number of a paper called the
State Journal, published iu Philadelphia,
contained a letter from Greensburg, West
moreland county, written by some itiner
ant vagabond, which accused General
Foster of being a "gambler " and having
lost largo Hints of money at tho gaming
table. This correspondent found him
" lounging lazily at a tavern door, un
shaven, without cravat, and in dirty linen,"
and represent) him generally as an indo
lent, good-foruothing idlor, totally in
capacitated for tho position to which the
Democrats of Pennsylvania intend to ele
vate him. Where Mr. Foster is known
an attack so false and baso as this nseds
no reply we allude particularly to the
charge of immoral habits. The author of
the calumny is not a citizen of Westmore

"The Democratic Creed.'' Ourwoolley

iu his last issuo, under tho abovo caption
a matter about which he is totally ignorant,
- -in which ho attempts to prove that tho
Democratic Party, is "not based upon a

right. Unlike his party, it is "not based
upon" tho "everlasting Nigger."
SrThe public oye has been almost

would daro to incur tho odium of all par
ties at Mr. Foster's homo by publishing
such a wholesale libel. Tho fellow
did tho business was employed for tho pur
pose by his masters in Philadelphia. As
to tho very grave chargo against General
Foiter, that ha was detected in " dirty
linen,'' it may pass for what it is worth
among thoe who think that the apparel
makes the man.
Not only was this communication ad
mitted into tho Slate Journal, but tho last
stated by Mr. Beardsleo j and wo call spe
cial attention to tho remarks of the rcpub
lican mombers who opposed tho bill, not by
any means forgetting what Mr. Collius
says. Dr. Seltzer is so well known that
nothing need bo said in illustration of his
impudent remark ; and Mr. Hofius it will
bo seen glories in that the republican par
ty is about to pats the bill. Theirs bu the
honor, theirs also the execrations of tho
honest tax-payers of tho commonwealth,
who next fall will hurl thoso reokless and
unprincipled scoundrels from place and
power.
