people of liohrsburg, and vicinity, assem
bled together at tho Presby teiian church
near Town for thu purpose of hearing i.
scriptural Discourse as it had been pre
viously unnouueed, that there would be a
-erinon delivered by a man from a di
tanee, who no doubt had been invited by
some Abolitionists to address tho people
of that place on that occasion. The Dem
ocrats went expecting to hear a discourse
on scripture, but greatly to their disap
pointment it was ono of tho most contra
dictory Ab'ii'i'm disunion spiecha ever
made : mch as meets the approval of the
Tories only anil deserves thu condemna
tion ol every true patriot. It was made
by ono who enter'.aius tho same opinions
and advocates tho same doctrine in gov
ernmental affairs that his tory leaders are
now tryitog to carry out, by men who have
always fought against thu Constitution
To prove thi-, let us notice the past.

there arc three thousand eight hundred and
eighty two persons employed in collecting
tho imrioeal t. This constitutes an
nrmy of cosideniblfe size ol more than
ordinary diuioneions, for it is made up ot
follows that swell tronicudously, some from
the iuflaiion of vanity and others from
whiskey. It should be remembered that
thesu tax collector are old broken down,
political hacks, who never could get office
by tho voiea of the people, and therefore
,got an appointnmnt from the President to
an office which will serve them to takerc-
venge on the people, who oould never np-
prceiate their good qualities,

It will he remembered that ANDnw
Jackson was President of the United
j State when the hcro.y ol Secession u
first avowed by South Oaroiina. Ho up

jdid it, too, inside of the Constitution and
j he never believed it occossary to go bp
, youd this instrument to nioct any cmir
gency (hat might arise Speaking ofth
powers o the General Govorntncnt, ,
says in his farewell address':
"Its legitimate authority is abundantly

you will have in effect, but olic consolida
ted government, Froin the extent of 0nr
country, its diversified interests, different
pursuits and different habits, it is 'too oh
vious for argument, that a single cjikoIi
dated government would be wholly in
adequated to watch over audproUct in

the rights and sovcroign'ty of tho States,
and to confine the action of the General
Government sttictly to the sphe're of iu ap

If the Constitution was good enough .for
our fathers, it ought to bo good enough
for us; and if "its legitimated authority
was abundantly sufficient" 'to suppress in
surrcctien and thwart secession in 'the
days of Andrew Jackson, it ought to bo
so in tho days of Abraham Lincoln. Th
fault can not bo in thc scopo of ''its leg
itimate authority," but in him who at
tcniepts to wield it. The Constitution ii
till the same not a provision annulled
not a power weakened ; but Abraham
Lincoln is not Andrew Jackson. I pat is
whot's the matter. ' So say s the I alliy
Spiiit, and bo say we.
