since, thus expressed himself :
"I may be led to confide in the honor

the evidence of his servility too conspicu

In 1844, CU•RGaa F. Aniline, now running on
the same ticket with Mr. Van Duren, published a
book on the Annexation of Texas, in which ho
said—
"The principles of liberty are never safe
in the honda of men who make a trade of
public affairs. Mr. Van Buren must be
judged by his preceeding course, taken as
a whole, and from that let no man delude
himself with the belief that he is Aced to
any thing but his own interest."

Nes, but Whigs are grossly wrong in voting for
Mr. Danner.' ,—Compikr.

by the deceptive cry of "Polk Dallas and the Tar

who has proved himself the true friend of Ameri
can Industry, and has, upon all occasions, stood
manfully up to the support of the American me
chanic, while no Whig can, without bclieing his
political profession, vote fur Mr. DANNER—who
has just as uniformly given his adhesion to the
policy of Mr. Polk, including the repeal of the
Tariff of t 542 and the substitution of the British
Free Trade Tariff of 1848. Any thing "sharp"

CoIIMUNICATIED
THE PROTHONOTARY.
Mr. Enrrolt : —The competency of a candidate
to perform the duties of the office which he asks
from the people, is a matter into which every Co.
ter should desire to look. Perhaps there could
not be a greater contrast between two candidates
than is now presented to the people of Adams
county for the office of Prothonotary.
It may safely be affirmed that the regular Whig
candidate, Jelin PICRINO, Esq., is trawl to say
man that could be selected in Adams county for
that office. His superior, in point of qualifications.
is not to be found is a penman, his dockets
are admired for their neatness. Hie handwriting
is plain--casily read by any one who can mad
writing. The agreements, wills, bonds, deeds,
&c, which he hai written, are , specimens of good
writing; and this kind of writing has for several
years past been done by him almost exclusively in
his semi in of the county, and in the adjoining town
ships in York county. Esq. Picaine is also
familiar with all the duties of the office the ad.
ministriiion of oaths, preparing of papers, &c., in
Court and out of it. And what can be said for
WILLIAM HAULAIII 1 Nothing. His attention
has never been given to such duties. Ile writes

kind of penmanship. He could enareely keep a
