irThe Advocate charges us with hav
ing misrepresented the Whigs in se) ing
that they had "no principles for the public
eye" in the campaign of 1840. We can
not refute this accusation more effectual
ly than by once mote referring to the offi
• cial refusal of the Cincinnati committee.—
The people had looked in vain to the
Whig Conventions for some definite decla
ration of the course to be pursued, in case
. the federal party should obtain possession
of the administration. It has always been
the custom, since the formation of parties
in this country, for Democratic Conven•
tions to re-assert the standard princiglas
of their party in the resolutions passed by
them, and to embody therein their views
arm the engrossing political topics of the
day. And the people, refer ring to Ibis
practice, bad a right to expect the same
candid course would be pursued by those
who sought, in the person of Gen. Hard_
son, to obtain government, and RR they
loudly asserted, to "change" its course for
the letter. In this reasonable expecta•
.timi they were disappointed. As their
- last, and only alternative, numbers of them
'addressed letters to General Harrison, to
learn his political views and intentions.—
To these inquiries he matte no answer, bit
*committee, claiming power to act in the
business, returned the same stereotyped,
supercilious answer that the General
,"would make no farther disclosures of
principle fur the public eye." That he
approved this answer, he gave unquestion
able evidence in every speech he made
subsequent to its pullication. He decli
neclup to the very day of his inauggration.
to make any "promises" as to his policy
ind denounced such pledges and promise s
as derogatory to a candidate. Have we
not, then, undeniable authority for saying
that the Whigs of 1840 had "no principles
for the public eye.
There can be no doubt hut that some
newspapers and many individuals of the
Whig party, made candid avowals of prin
&pie. But these were merely isolated
opinions; they had no binding effect what_
ever on the action of the party when it
should triumph. They had positively ruM
fused to enlighten the public or commit
themselves on any question, through the
Best medium which a party can employ:its,
eoneentions or its candidates. They ye •
keineutly threatened to tear dovtn, bu: did
not youchafe to say how they meant to rep.
build the fabric.
The Advocate, however, is willing to
change the subject, and come to present
Matters—the editor asks if we see nothing
"tangible" in a quotation from Henry Clay,
(indicating the means by which we may re-
turn toprosperity) which now stands under
the head ofalmost every Clay paper. W e
admit that it is much more "tangible" than
no principles at all, but still riot sufficiently
explicit. It is a great improvement on the
non-committal system of 1840, and proves
that the Whigs have learned something by
sad experience. But how does the Advo,
cafe know that that quotation is approved
by the whole whig party, or how does it
know that Henry . Clay will be the candi,
date of that political body. We commend
C. candor, certainly, but then Mr.
Clay is not yet nominated, and his nomi
nation, we rather think,w ill meet with con
siderable opposition. And when he is no
minated, what assurance has the Advocate
that the Convention will adopt Mr. C's
programme of principles. Perhaps it may
make him change it materially. Who
itnoova what device they may employ to
obtain victory.
We observe that the Advocate has made
so alter:llkm in the order of the words
"revenue and protection;" it places reve-
nue first, as Mr Clay Las it, but insists that
protection must to more than a mere "in
ciaviti" We are pleased to see this—it
Wine qs another step nearer a general a-
greement on this momentuots qpestion
sat gives hope that it will soon be with
drawn from party politics. Whenever po.
liticians cease to use it as a hobby, it can
be -settled, permanently and satiafactorily;
and not till Men.
AISTIMLSONRY TOTTERING.—The events
of every day make it more apparent that
Antimasonry is on its 'last legs,' and that
in a little time it will be spoken of as am
ong the things that were. To judge from
the floundering of the leading blue noses
for the last few months, it would seem tint
they are conscious of their approaching die
solhtion, and they are busily engaged
in attempting to originate a new humbug to
talcs` tbe Owe of dead; fetid Antimasonry.
Abolitionism was first suatcked up,with the
hope4et,it
,would ermble theM.W d to
er7o 4:party,:buti;:tsj4 c . rietic
treachery, 4 attempted. to.befeit the ab
oliticmists, anti the Liberty men deelined to
have any fellowship with them. Tll3 next
`happy thought' of the miserable squad
who control the organ of the blue noses,
was to get up a religious excitement against
a portion of the community, and to perse
cute every one who would not join in the
proscription ; For such a business, their
innate baseness well qualified them; the la
bour of persecution could not be confided
to more appropriate hands.
Buceven in this they appear to be doubt
ful of success, as they have received no in
dication that their proscription is approved
by the community, and for some time, the
Gazetteand its correspondents have strewn
evident signs of starting on a new tack.—
The last project is an effirt to get up an
anti-Morning-Post party. Our success,
and the frequent exposures we have been
compelled to make of ths vile course of the
Deacon, has excited his molted enmity,and
as neither ant- masons v nor anti-catholi
ci..rn will do, he appears determined to try
what lie can effect by anti-Morning/Jost,
ism. In this, the poor little creature will
find himself more disappointed than in any
of his former projects. Fie might get some
easy credulous s u's to believe los horrid
stories about Masonry, particularly when
he informs them that l:e was once a mem
ber of the Lodge, and possibly his tin iti
cism and intolerance might pass unrebuked
but it is labor lost to attempt to injure the
Morning Post—no body in this community
will tolerate such unpara'leled effrontery , as
iltat,—even though it be backed by the
ious spirit' of his new ally.
This is the end of antimasonry; what lit
tle strength it has left will be expended in
its ridiculous attack on the Post, and when
that folly explodes its epitaph may be writs
ten. Poor antirnasonry!
Mery e. E ore—ln my recent cepoinunicatippno
published in-your valuable pap- r, I endeavored to
lay before the public a candid and general view of
the state of seciety and metals of that p. iio,n
Pitt Township, embraced within a hat to g. nera;ly
pleimminatept Arthorsville and Denny's tield , pear
the nt w basin, without an; allusion weioever to
the remainder the Township. The whale of
my remarks in slid communications, I reiterate
are substantially true and beyond coritradtction
in truth, notwithstanding the like erp'oring that

there are e lily colored famiheo residing amongst
them who arc well behave.:,2, it P, the case in
every ins anee where colored peotPle are dm fed
and scattered amongst the whites, they generally
conduct themselves as they see their where neigh
hors phi. and participate in the general tone given
to society, or, are inure or less influenced by it;
but on the contrary in every in-lance where they
are congregated in considerable Epafies they do
not nor nr v-r did conduct themselves in an otter
ly o' moral manner, and tle:Or pestilential influs
nice, as a matter of course, has • he inevitable ef
fect of blighting the morals of youth Such has
been the effect in that portom of the To.vnship of
which I have spoken.
Nitratil admits that there are some v, ry immor
al characters in the parts to which I have alluded,
but denies that they aro anything near the major
ity of tesidents of the neighborhood, or that they
ba'ong to the place at all, or even the county •
Now, I again assert that out of the body of color
ed pt ogle to be found there, there is net more than
about five out of every hundred that to not a corn
mon nuisance to society, and if, as Dictor Ni
train says, the majority of them arc not resident,
iif the place, and not even belonging to the cuun
ty, why do the residents receive, entertain, ac
commodate, countenance and harbor them? Sure
ly if these vagabonds had no harbor or entertain
'tient. they would not be found (Iv re; this at once
settles the question as to the morality of the place.
As to his assertions shout the colored free holders
of the places I have alluded to, I can tlesUrC 111111
that in Denny's field there is not a free holder
,vliite or black in it, unless they hold real estate
elsewhere: and as to . Arthursville, the number of
blacks, free holder-, wool! probably not exceed a
dozen who arc residents. That there are idlets,
rogues, gamblers-, vagabonds, ,Szei, among the
whites, as he asserts is true, only Bu far as relates
to the youth of the place: and their corrupt morals I
is the inevitable result of long continued bad ex-
amides set before them by the great circle of the
blauks; that some of these have found a home in
the penitentiary, some arc ripe for the same place,
and others prominent candidates for the same,
'Allot be denied, and all their misfortunes Call
only be attributed to the bad example set before
them.
It is not true, that there are as many lewd boo
see kept by whites as there are by blacks; as there
is but one lewd white woman known in Arthur:4-
, IWe, and if there be any in Denny's field, it is but
one, and that one, the wife of a negro; to enumer.
ate the colored lewd women I will not undertake
the job, it is sufficient to know that the number
is not small, and enough to draw the attention of
crowds of negroes and colored dandies of the city,
who pass through the day for well bt.haved young
men but are found passing. arid rcpassing up end
down the roast at all lions, from dark to daylight.
The Doctor says that be knew of but three public
houses kept by Colored persons on the hill, two of
which they succeeded i t breaking up, and the third
they so far routed as to cause them to move their
quarters. Pray, how eiled he halm overlooked
the one keot with a barber's pole for a sign, the
keeper of which was convicted only a week ago,
and is now in prison, and from whose shop re
