THE "BARNBURNERS" & “OLD HUNK•
The term Darnburners is known only as
significant of a faction in the Democratic
party ; but hundreds ask what does it mean;
bow did it originate
'the origin of the term barnburner was,
we beleive, this: In the State of New York
it is well known that politics were for very
many years arranged and directed by a
clam of men called the .111bany Regency.
They held the State offices and parcelled
them out as their own domain. Of course
this in time begat jealousy and opposition.
' Thiqoung and new members of the party
qould' see neither justice nor propriety in
this sort of political aristocracy; and many
of the old ones, who had fought long Imre-
Welinkik took sides with them. This man
iftwled, itself in the Legislature. A. radical
(Wino was formed, and the great point of
diisptite, was, as it has always been, the e
tas. "Ah, (said the radicals) what right
these old fellows—thesehunkere—to
Iniloreier sucking at the public crib, while
tte a teat remain for us ?' ft was a sore
grievance end a trying time. What could
bedopef Nothiogseemed possible. The
Bunkers held on with a grip like a vice,
They ected most emphatically on the doe
trine Mama bird in the hand was worth
two in the bush." At length, seeing there
lens no chance without force, a leader of
the faction rose and said:
"Mr. Speaker: I see that the gentle-
Men who hold the Regency power have ta
ken their ;worse, and are not to be moved
by. penult:lion or ejectment: they are no
sooner driven out at one corner than they
come in at the other. Sir, I see no way
to get them out but to serve them as some
fellow did the rata. Ile was troubled ex
cessivly by rats in his barn: he tried all sorts
of ways to get them out; he set traps for
them; he got a terrier dog, he sent in a
weasel, and he put poison in their way I
but all in vain—no sooner did they go out
oseside than they came in the other. The
traps they would not enter, the poison they
would not eat, He resolved what he
would do: heed fire to the barn, and burnt
borp, rats and all! This is what we will
do, sir. In the masterly language of the
tonnortsl Jefferson, sir, 'few men die and
none resign.' We must try a more sum
mary method—we will burn the barn, rata,
aid all."
The Hunkers understood the game, and
•
resolved to anticipate a little; so at the next
election, when the great chief of the Barn
burners(Silas Wright) was nominated, the
/Junkets quickly gave him a stab under
the filth rib, and laid hint low in political
death. ** Vengeance!" then said all the
Rarnburners. "Justice to Silas Wright
now ,requires that we should immolatie a
hecatomb of rats." " The barn mud be
burnt l" And it was. Nothing but its ruins
remain, whilst hundreds of Honker rats, all

THE FRANKING PRIVILEGE &
CHEAP POSTAGE:
It is well known et Washington that the
real objection in members of Congress to
giving a system of cheap postage, which,
aside from themselves and those for whom
they frank, would be hailed wish joy through
out the nation, is that it would place them
selves on a level with others, as to mail
privileges, and the means of a future elec
tion.
Now, throughout the year, members
send and receive, tree, forilfiiiifilalvslrand
others whom they choose to conciliate,
immense numbers of letters, circulars, hand
bills and newspapers; and during the Con
gressional session they distribute just as
many circulars, pamphlets, documents and
volumes, as they choose to print at the
public expense (many of them weighing
two or three pounds each) ; thus actually
occupying a very large portion of their time,
besides that of a hundred clerks and others.
in folding, directing and franking—often
burdening the daily mails with many tons—
designed to conciliate political friends of
every class and party—thus constituting in
fact a national bribery for office.
Meanwhile, on the circulars, handbills,
transient newspapers, &c. of others, who
would compete with them for honorable
°Meg., or wish to send for any other . put.
pose, they impose tax of three cents, pre
paid, and on ordinary letters five or ten
cents.
In this day of light, if Americans. rather
than take the trouble of petitioning, will
silently bear this selfish , osurpanoo-and
abuse of power, it surely very 111 becomes
them to exult in the increasing liberties of
Europe.
A very similar monopoly of franking,
and enormous distribution,
through the
mail, of favors—bribes—et the public ex
pense, was usurped by the British Parlia
ment, and held till mill ions of petitions loa
ded their tables, and till, indeed.* leading
member in the oposition wu forced to say
that the demand forpenny postage mid the
abolition of franking was universal. Bo
strong is the grasp of power, one* gained.
But the people there prevailed, as they
can here ; and sines equal privileges were
given to all, so immense has been the in
crease of letter-writingby mail, that it now
brings to the British government over all
expense, between fourandfivernilKons
dollars annually!—though carrying all hail
ounce lettere for spenny. and newspapers
for nothing.
Knowledge, diffinted- through the mail,
or otherwise, is power-.-the greatest of all
power—and there should be no tax on this
wonderful mode of spreading it, except
simply so mush as is needful for protect
ing the , mail from abusive burdens—which
now all result from franking.
Let. then petitions like the following
be at once poured upon Congteus from ev
ery village, and a revolution will be erec
ted, more-important to- human improve
ment end equal rights than that before
which kings andnobles have pissed away ;
and the example, started in England, will
contribute largely to enlighten_ this nation
and the world:

principle of the Whigs of Adams county, to feel
aerated that in the approaching campaign the par

mil up such a majority,for the whole ticket as
shall do honor even to the Whip of the "Young

Transylvania University in that State, and Arst •

is said to be a poet, which some one suggests gives
him the advantage of being able to write his own

which we invite the attention of the reader. It

OEN. CASS AND NEW YORK.—The
Barnbermer Delegulon to OW Mr Locotwo Con
vention have Issued an &Mims, on this subject of
the recent nominatiens at Baltimore. which 'het
a detailed history of the entire proceedings, arrives
at the conclusion that "The Democracy of this
State (New York) are thrown back upon the al
ternative of either having no regular candidate, or
of nominating for themselves through their own
legitimate State organization.' They, therefi;e,
momunmad that a convention shall be held at Uti
ca on the 2341 instant, for the Purpose of receiving
the report of the regular Democratic Delegates to
the National Convention, and expressing their sen
timents in regard to the action of that body, mein
ding New York from a participation in its pro
oeirdimgs„ and for recommending candidates for the
offices of President and Vice President, subject to
the decision of the State Convention regularly
called for the 13th of September, or to take such
other action relating thereto a may seem denim.
In the colitis of a leader on the subject, the
Poet has the following comments:
..The I:temocrate of New York regard the nom
ination of a democratic candidate for the Presiden
cy of the United States as not yet made. In this
state of things they will do the beet they can :
they will esercee their best dee:Mien in the se
lection of a man whom they can support, and they
will oppose the spurious nomination attempted to
be fastened on them by a truncated and packed
convention, until the presidential electors of the
State shall have been chosen. The people will
then have signified their will in this matter we
shall then see where the majority lire, and the coo.
tests will be at an end."
SOUTH CAROLINA AND OEN. CABB .
—The Democratic papers of South Carolina con
continue to score Gen. Commander for daring to
represent that State in the NationatDemocratic
Convention. The Charleston Mercury, of the
29th ult., has another lengthy article on the sub
ject, and says:
"South Carolina stands uncommitted, even lees
so than if the Convention had not cast on her the
Indignity of aiding an impostor and pretender,
knowing him to be such, in mismpresenting her
position before her sister States of the Confederacy.
"With regard to the nomination of Glen. Cass
by the Convention, we need scarcely ay that it is
unsatisfactory; and, indeed, of all the name, be.
fore that body; his was lad acceptable to the De
mocracy of South Carolina:"
GEN. CASS IN Tint ARMY.--The Reed
ing Journal publishes a letter from a member of
one of the Pennsylvania Companies, (tilerjeant
GRAM, of that city.) from which we make the
following extract, earring to show the estimation
in which , the nominee of the late Locofoco Con
vention is held by the volunteer" at the army.—
Little did those pliant fidlows think that the out
rage which Gen. Cass bed been instrumental in
perpetrating upon their rights, would be endorsed
by the Democretic Convention, by nominating him
for the Presidency :
"Next let me tell you how Senator Case was
treated by the volunteers. You will recollect that
we, (or the vedenteles,) were mustered under the
art of May, '4B,.by which we were allowed 1113.60
par month for clothing, and in a circular dated
August 7th, '47, we were eosin assured of receiv
ing the sarne. - . But it mune that Mr. Case, with
a good economical bead, aired a bill "to cause
the volunteers to be farnidted with clothing in
kind, at the game rates asserding to grades, as is
provided for the troops °fibs regular army.", Thus
yea see he has reduced era pay for clothing from
53.110 tolll.Bo. This, I !oppose, is the coupon

BLY —This body adjourned on Saturdey last,
alter a laborious session of fifteen days. During
the session, the mass of the Rev. Dr. Skinner was
settled, after a most patient investigation. The
decision of the Presbytery of Lexington, which
had suspended him from the ministry, was revers
ed, and he was restored to his full ministerial
functions. The marriage question, whether •
man may many his wife's sister, came up and
elicited some very interesting debates. The as
sembly left the mho as it was, and confirmed a
decision date Synod of North Carolina, which
had sanctioned the suspension of a man who had
so married.

rected legal counsel to be taken ; and, if favorable
to the power to submit it, that the question of a
division of the Church property be referred to ar

which, from its association*, was the prin

was crowded to excess—not less than
twenty thousand people being present.—
The enthusiasm exceeded even that shown

GREAT BUSTIFICATION OF

11111 E it known to the world, that the un

tent for an
Improved Machine fo r Hulling and Clean
ing Clover-seed,
which, for thoroUghly performing its work,
in a speedy manner, surpasses any thing
that has ever been presented to the public.
In order to produce a machine that will
meet the wants of the community in every
respect, the Patentee has for several years
vpplied himself diligently *cola taski_Mid
is now enabled to offer a machine worthy
of their consideration.
This machine has only been in opera
tion during the last season, in Cumberland,
York and Adams counties, and has given
entire satisfaction. It is a neat, portable
machine, only weighing about 400 lbs.
and of light draught, and can hull and clean
with ease four loads of cloverseed per day,
or one load in brio hours. It can be con
verted into a common windmill in a mo
ment's time. - Persons desiring to pur
chase rights can see_ the machine by call
ing at my residence irgaitimore township,
Adams county. Owners of Clover-mills
would find it to their advantage to give me
a call.
Hundreds of certificates can be given of
its utility, and the satisfactory manner that
it hulls and cleans cloverseed, and also
timothy reed, but I deem it only necessa
ry to refer to a few individuals at whose
barns the machine has been exhibited and
fully tested.

was the swelling, that she was unable to sleep

but they gave no relief, (they co*d relieve her
only by applying the lance, but she would not
consent,) and it continwed in that state until her
case was made known to your agent in this
place, who promptly furnished the Expectorant,
and after tieing four bottles,'her throat is almost
entirety cured. No one could scarcely believe
the benefit derived from using it, but those who
saw the state in which her throat was before
using the Expectorant, and the appearance now.
There are several persons, known to your agent,
who have watched the progress of the medicine
during its use, who are willing to testify to the

body subject to receive injury (ruin the principle
of corruptibility implanted in the human frame.
We cannot deny it. There is in every created
being a principle of corruptibility, as well as a
principle of animation. It is when this corrupt
ibility becomes too powerful for the Lira Pain•
circa or Blood, that disease commences. It is
not because it does exist but because it becomes
ACT/VS ; in some it has taken an bundled years
to develops itself; in some, it has decome para
mount belore birth, and the child is still-born.—
The constitution of the child depends upton its
parsons; he receives from them the principle of
his life, and also that which will Lltimately
destroy him, and when of age be trausun.a them
to hie children.
Thus we see that in the same body is the
principle of life and also of corruptibility. And
it is only by due attention in some bodies that
health can be isecored.by artificial modes Of assist.
ing the functions of life to throw off the occasion.
accumulations elf corruptibility, which entered*e
would overpower the principle life, belore the
individual had reached to the full period of his
existence, according to the principle of life with
in him. For, in order that men should arrive at
• that petiole( life called old age; a perfect balance
mot exist between the principle of life and the
principle of. corruptibility. When the fi&stance
is in favor of the principle of lire, we observe the
energy of character with edmiHtion. And I
have no doubt that just in proportion as the life
principle predominates is the energy both of
body and mind. By the use of proper Medicine
this can always be secured until a good old age.
The principle of corruption• is subject to the
influence of many causes of vitiation. it is, there
fore, necessary that we be provided' with ample
means to prevent injury front' it; or in eons.-
mience of this visitation that putridity would be
produced which would destroy the individual Sr.
he had arrived at that period of life which he
would have done from the principle of life which
was in him. ,Now, to accomplish this, we must
prevent an acensfulation of those humors which
bear down the principle oflifir. Do not wait for
an a ttack of sickneelLbut on lliefinit appearitice
of the snafu_ Mimt_naltut AlPitotiono to

ways attained by those who use Basseterre's

years have been restored by the pee of this medi
cine. They are as harmless as a pm* ef,bread
yet all powerful for the removal of disease wheth
