In this demoralized auto of tho country, capital has shown crcat oacorncss to so- oare for itself special privllcgo and spoatal advantages by legislation, and many abuses havo crown up in your representative- bod ies. Theso must bo ourod ; tho system of corrupting the representatives of tho peo ple must bo thoroughly eradicated or there will be an end to reprosentatiro Government. When you aro called upon to scleot a oandidalo, bo sure to give the nomination to odd who is pure in that re spect ( bo sure that he is a man who acts 1 from his conviction and screes to tho great doctrino that tho representative is bound by tho will of his constituents. This doctrine you must inculuato if you would preserve your govcrnmout ; and as Ruro as you begin tho roform you can accomplish it. 1 wish this issuo to bo made everywhere. I do not know nor do I beliovo that you in this county have oy er been botrayod in tho way I am allu Ing to ; but I know that our pooplo havo tcpoatodly been. I know that sinoo the advent oi Republicanism, Republican soamps that havo gono to tho Lfgisln turo have sold their votes. Some of them have stood in tho corners of tho Capitol with their hands open behind their backs, ready to tako the price that might be giv en them. These arc alarming abuses, and thoy call for a remedy. Tho people must bo impressed with the idea that when thoy send representatives to mako law for thorn thoy do not part with their power of Gov ernment. The theory of tho Govornmont is that it is more convenient for you to sond ono of your number to tho legislative body than to go yourselves en masse, and when your representative is thero he is bound t5 do what you would do if you were- all thore assombled. So, inform yourselves upon every issue and Bend honest mon to represent you and oxact of them that thoy shall do what you wish dono in the prom ises that they shall oboy your will and not tho law of their own selfish interests and passions, SPEECH OF C. R. BUCKALEW, AT THE NOB MOUNTAIN MEETING. Thursday Morning, Aug. 3 1 , '6 5 . RETORTED RY D. F. MURPHY. ESQ. I hold in my band, fellow citizens; a cynopsN of tho election returns for the county of Columbia at Gubernatorial and Fresidcntial Elections, commencing with the year 1836 and ending with tho Presi dential Election of 1861. Tlii. is a most rcmarkablo and a most gratifying record, and 1 have thought it a proper and fit thing that it should bo put upon tho rec ord of the proceedings of this meeting, and go into the published volumo which we propose to issue. At the opening of this meeting, thero Was read inyour hearing the original, suo cinct, but beautiful statement of tho gen eral principles o( our party creed from ' the first Inaugural Address of Thomas Jefferson, third Preiidont of the U. S. This section of Pennsylvania has some relations both to the author and to tho creed itself, He was a correspondent of Dr. Priottley and ofDr. TIios. Cooper,at one time residents of the town of Northumbcr land in our own vicinity. What is now tbo County of Columbia then constituted a portion ol tho County of Northumberland. At that early day the founder of the Democratic party had within our territory correspondents and friends-men who sym pathized with him in political sontiment, and to whom ho expressed those emotions upon pubfio questions which characterized his correspondence; and his letters to ihc two distinguished gentlemen whom I have mentioned, constitute a most inter esting portion of hisjiublishcd correspon dence. In the year of 1813 tho County of Co lumbia was erected from the County of Northumberland, and it has had an inde pendent existenco as one of the Counties of the Commonwealth, ever since. This was ahout a dozen years before tho death of Mr. Jefferson. During his Prosiden tlal terms the County of Northumberland was Democratic in its sentiments. Our own County after its ereotion, during his life time, stood firmly by his creed and by his principles, and from that timo down to the present, its career as a politioal com munity, has been one of great consistency and of distinguished honor, la times of great excitement and of party disturbanoo; when other portions of tho Commonwealth have ttrayed from their aooustomcd course this partioular section of Pennsylvania' oas siuuu urm ana iaiiniui co toe princi- pies originally adopted by its people. 1 bavo only the record back to tho year 183G, showing how from that timo down to tho present, a period of 30 years, the peoplo of this County havo kept their po litioal fidelity and instead of falling off in the annual contribution whioh thoy havo Kiven to Democratio majorities in this State, bavo steadily and materially in creased mat contribution. 1830 -For President Whole voto, 2104.

At this election tho soldier vote of Col umbia county, taken abroad and sent homo was, for MoClellan 192, for Linooln 184. You will remember that in 185G tho op position to our party was divided ; it was broken into two interosts,tho Fremont and Fillmore interests; tho result of which division in their ranks whiloours wcro uni ted, was,tho magnificent majority of 1871 That was tho caso in 1850 when tho op- urs Ecn to us in its integrity by our position was disorganized by internal di- ancestors, the constitution they mado for visions ; but in 1800 the oaso was dli. w shall bo kept kept in its letter and aitrously reversed. In that year,wo wero! Bpint-keptinPeiinsylvania.and in Georgia, divided. Wc held a National Convention;" wherever tho flag for whioh our boys ' at unaricston, wliicu did not conclude thoi wMviuiuuvv u iuu uuuco i.J IV U (UU lw LIUU been assigned. An adjournod Convention was theD held in Baltimore, and tho scb sions of thot body resulted in a split and in tho nomination of two Candidate. In this State wo had what was oalled a fusion ticket, a majority of thoso supporting which wero Breckenridgo mon, but a por ion uougias mon ; aim tners was also what was oallod a "straight" Douglas ticket. In that year, in consequenco of tins uivision among ourselves, tho rosult was that our majoritio dropped down, at the Governor's elcotion to 073, and at tho Presidential election to G33. Now lot me call your attention horo to what explains thoso votoi. In 1850, four years before, the totl Presidential voto was, 0407, and in lgGO it was 0483 j that is, instead of thorp1 being an increased voto at tho end of that period of four years, tho voto remained about tho game. luo inovitabe conclunon is that there was a largo number of votes unpolled in this , County, and, of course, as ours was tho! disorganized party, thoy woro Domooratio 1 votes, Governor' jluiuu jchib uiiurtraruH, ai mo r's eleotion in 1803 and you ....ill -,, .... ii. . . rt-'i wow tu mm iuu yu.es at me uoveril- or, 0icoi:orjs aro Ugall0 m,,rL ltrrliln than at Proi't. elections tho total voto Un n . .

Tho record is a rcmarkablo one and ways bo roforrcd to by our peoplo with innv nl. nrido and satisfaction. . . . .. Now, at tho end of a creat war tho prossurd of which has fallen upon tho country with cxtrcmo severity, and the burdens of which aro to remain with us, it is most important that our people in popular assomblies and wherever they moot logcthor, should confer upon public affairs and determino their oourse lor tho future. Wo havo arrived, so to speak, at a new point of departure Tho war is closed, and now questions arc thrust upon us whioh must bo met and solved by thuso who aro charged with tho conduct of gov crnmcnt, and by us also in selecting them. Therefore, the question I have now to submit to this audience assembled at tho baso of our groat mountain on the closing day of August, 1805, is this : Aro you satisfied your fathers decided wisely in choosing their political associations I Do vou think they displayed sagacity and virtue in solccting tho creed of Mr. Jcffer- oiples of Amorioan Liberty; and that if son as thoir standard of political faith,and thero bo anything of ahamu or of base in supporting a policy founded thereon in noss in tho recent records of tho Govcrn tho practical administration of the gov mcnt, the iniquity and tho crime is not up orument? That creed has been read in on tlnm. jour hearing. You have heard iu cm. To come back to the main point : I phatic endorsement of cconcmy in govern-'repeat, the question is proposed to the ment outlays ; of freo elections, (unco- peoplo of this soction of the couutry, what erced and unoorrupted ;) of state rights ; course will thoy adopt for tho future ? of an unfettered press, and of trial by ju- f Will thoy choose to say and determine that ry, Theso aro leading points of its text, the faith of Jcfforson tho creed of prin and they smite existing and recent abu- ciples established by him and now held ses as they smote thoso of former times, by the Democratio party shall bo sup wi,h most righteous condemnation. ported so far as thoir voico can go I Gen- I understand that a few persons have tlemen. vou know how it is. ordinarilv. bcon greatly troubled,vcry much exercised in mind, with reference to tho object of this meeting. Why doei it nssomblo I There is no President to elect ; thero is no Governor to elect; no one is to get an office now bypolitical action. Thero is no question ol patronage or of individual pro tit involved at this time The little coun- ty officcs,that aro to bo tilled in this county are not matter of debato or of contest ; I believe this is ono of tho very ocaasions noniuiations for them being equivalent to wheu men can fairly mako up thoir minds election. Thero is, I repeat, no Governor on publio question'; now when no intense to be elected to distribulo the littlo drip- y exciting political campaign is pending, pings of patronaga left to our Executivo now when their minds aro 'open, when under tho present State Constitution, they are wide awako to publio ovents, Thero aronoofficos of Pres. ap'traent to be when they recent great struggle of our Oiled. Why then, some low minded men country has called their attention to the may think and may inquire that class of course of publio affairs. I trust that tho men with whom politics consists in gcltiug people of this Uouuty will for a long timo offioo and of going through manoeuvres for to come make up a record of honor and o. the purpose of getting office why then glory , politically, that will compare fa should there he a popular meeting here ! vorably with that which they have made Such persons cannot comprehend, they heretofore, so that it may be said by the are jo constituted that that thoy are una- future hiotorian that after the cstablish ble to comprehend, tho meaning of a ment of tho Government of tho United meeting when thero is not some personal States there was one community ol people object in view. I can tell you.gentlcmcn, iu our country who steadfastly and al why this meetinc; assembles. I think I ways stood to the true nrincinlas of thn understand the tignificancc of this large garnering or citizens upon mis quiet morn- ing, in this quiet grove. You assemblo! yourselves together as independent free men to determine your course for the fu turo.
