Which is the British Party'?
In times gone.by, one of the choicest and most
approved ph r in the vocabulary of political Lo
cofocoiern, in its denunciations of the Whig party,
was that of the ~Britith parry," indicating there
by an affiliation of interest and sympathy in the
political measures urged by that party and those I
adopted in England. Of late years, hoarser,
there has been a marked change in this respect, ',
and we hear nothing more of 'British Whigge
ry,' and kindred epithets. is it because Loco-1
foo,ism has become ashamed of the utter
EJ
sity of the Charge, and because the identity of in
terest between British policy and that advocated
by modern Locofocoism has become so marked
and self-evident auto render it &parable to have
the popular mind directed to the subject as little
as possible ! Be this as it may, there can no ,
longer be any -doubt that British Btateamen look
upon the Looofoco party as the distinctive cham
pion of British interest/ on the subject of larilT
duties; and sympathise must cordially with the
policy of our,political opponents.
The reader will doubtless recollect the insolent
hitter of her Britanle majesty's minister at Wash

can, writing , ' fromthis place on the lith inst., in
regard to the recent Whig County Meeting, did
not meet oar eye eintff we noticed it in the ••Claily
News" of TuesdaY ltaid--:-to which journal we are
intlebtea for the Opportunity of Setting the Whigs
of the ..firOung Cuard' i tight in this Mettle, before
their politicsff brethien,iti other pens of the State.
The correspondent ai l the North American does
,
gross injustice, to the Whip who perticipsted in
the County , Meeting an , v,oluoteering an interpre
tation of their views wholly unwarranted by any
thing that transpired at the mating.-an kiitcaPre.
Union 3, kith the Ahura resolution was not design
alto bear, and which eannothirly hi given to it.
The writer of this happened tabs on.the Com
mittee which drilled and reportetthe Resolutions
adopted hi. the 'Meeting, and knows- that so ter
from any member of that Committee designing to
reflect upon the Integrity of thedietinguiebed Whig
sts'itnegiairoe.ally designated by the North Amer' ,
can corresgoindent, not one of them would hate
given his e r teFtien to any such expression'of s iesro
Asia herein:looted to them ; and we fedi just as
well assured that had any such expression been
prevented to the Whigs of the County, "their re
buts" would here been "unsparingly administer
ed." We have no objection to the correspondent
of the North Atnerican expressing es freely as he
pleases hie own opinions of men and things, but
we protest against his passing off those opinions
as the views of the Whigs of this county, or as
suming the right to respreaent their views until he
shall have familiarised himself with them.
==l
in expressing theiedecided approval of the State
Administration, the Whigs of the "Young Guard"
behind it,nothintmere than a well merited tribe
ute to the agility, industry, integrity, and watch
ful devotion to the true interests of the State, die
played by Gov. JOIINIITO ' N since his accession to
the Gubernatorial chair, and certainly did not in
tend to be understood as thereby becoming the
endorsers of retry position he may haec assumed,
whether in an official or personal capacity. And
so, also, in expressing "undiminished confidence"
in our excellent and patriotic President, it would
be unfair to holdehem responsible for every act of
the General Administration, or to infer therefrom
a want of "confidence" in distinguished Whigs
who may happen to disapprove of en Executive
nomination or honestly differ from the President
as to the propriety of some particular policy
Neither Mr. Ccie Or Mr. Conran—who are
evidently aimed at by the correspondent of the
North American, sod agsinst whose political in
tegrity the Whigs. of Adams county are represent
ed as having pronounoird a verdict—need any de
fence it our bands. Both have "done service" in
the Whig COMIC and beee built up for themselves
a reputation for sincere devotion to the interests of
the party and the country that will require some
effort to break it down. Mr. Ct T has seen fit to

A TARIFF MOVEIMENT.—A 'special tele
graphic despatch from Washington of Tuesday to
the Philadelphia North American says:
"According to the previous arrangement,
the friends of a modification of the exis
ting Revenue Laws, from several States,
held a meeting last 'evening, for the pur
pose of consultation. Tim immediate oc
casion of this meeting was the.declaration
made by Mr. Bally. Chairman of the Corn
injure of Ways and Means, when Sir It
L. Bulwer's letter was under discussion
in the House, that he would interpose no
objection to the minority of his Committee
bringing iu a bill to test the sense of con
gress on the important subject of the Tar
iff. The declaration, coupled with pri
vate assurances to the same effect, has led
to a determination to prepare a Rill provi
ding fur specific duties, which will, in all
probability, be submitted within a fort- ,
night, accompanied by a report from Mr.
Vinton.
"Should Mr. Daily change his opinions,
and adopt a different course of action from
that indicated, the attempt to introduce a
bill will be mode notwithstanding ; and it
may be believed will result in favorable
action.

the service" of their masters in Carroll county,
and made trucks for the free States. On
Wednesday eveniug last, some little stir ma. ere
eted in out usually quiet town by the announce
ment of the snivel of a -lave-hunter from West- I
minister, in pursuit of the runaways, one of whom
had been recognized but an hour previously on
the road between this and Littlestown. Immedi
ately upon stepping out of the stage, a horse and
!soggy were ordered and arningementa made for
the prompt re-capture of the fugitive and his resto
ration to the delightful servitude which, in his ig
nuni‘ee and simplicity, the poor fellow had fool
'shirty sought to throw aside. A "gentlemen of
color," however, chanted to be standing by, and
gathering an idea of what was going on, stepped
into an adjacent livery stable, and mounting the
first horse ho could lay hands on, started to give
the alarm to the fugitive—followed in a few min-
Wes by the horse and buggy. Thechase was kept
up bravely for some fierier eix miles; but the first
party proving the swifter traveller, his pursuers
knocked Under, and the Slave was saved I In dee
time pursued and punster returned to town—the
"gentleman of cnior" calling promptly upon the
proprietor of the livery stable and settling for the
trespass upon his property. Thus ended the la
test •sbace-huni" in these parts, which, as chroni
clers of pouting event■, we have deemed it our du
ty to notice.
