A. VOICE FROM AP AR
We received a letter on Saturday from an
old Pittsburgher, now a resident of Missouri,
enclosing the amount of his subscription to
the Weekly Post. Ile seems still to have a
kind regard for the welfare of his old friends
in Allegheny county, for he writes as fol.
lows:
Hr. Barr :—I sea a " Thomas Williams"
named for a candidate. if it is the lawyer, I
should like to bo i. Pittsburgh to do all I can
against him; on account of his contempt for the
poor hireling. When in Court, Mr. Williams
holds up the hireling to the jury as a man whose
testimony, without regard to truth, is sure to be
in favor of his employees,because he it a hireling.
My old friend Judge Shaler will know to what
exteot Mr. Williams carries this trait, when he
remembers the sußof Church Carothers i& Co.,
vP. Oliphant, in - which Shaler was counsel for
C., C. & Co., and Williams for Oliphant. I was
a witness on balialf of plaintiff, and Mr. Wila
Hams told the jury to receive my testimony
with great allowance, as I was a "pour depend
ent upon Church &:Carothers for my bread and
butter."
The lawyer who, protected by the Court, would
utter such a lie, would not hesitate to steal a
negro. He will do as a candidate for the Black
Republicans.
THE DEIIIOORATIO TICKET.
The True Press is anxious to have us call
and order the republication of our editorial
remarks upon the Democratic nominees, in
person, at the office of that paper. We gave
the order in the manner customary among
printers, and the True Press chose to dishonor
it. We now turn the matter over to the Dem
ocratic Committee. They have paid the
money contributed for campaign purposes by
the candidates to the True Press, and it is
their duty to see that that journal says a few
words now and then in favor of the ticket.—
They have paid it thus far only for advocating
Black Republicanism and a Black Republic'
can candidate- It is true, it did something
to earn the Democratic funds which it has
received. It seems very ready to publish cer
tificates in favor of Mr. Moorhead and other
Black Republican candidates, but not one
word in favor of the Democratic ticket ap
pears in its columns, or if anything does blun
der in, it is sure to be retracted and apolo
gized for the neat day. Let the Democratic
Committee attend to the True Press. Mr.
Kennedy and Mr. Williams have fooled them
out of their funds, and utterly refuse to say
a word in favor of the Democratic candidates
in return. The Committee have been badly
sold, and they know it. Why do they not
insist on Kennedy and - Williams living up to
their part of the contract?
John M. Read and Free Trade.
Notwithstanding the desperate efforts made
by the Republican leaders and organs to de
lude the people into the belief that Hon.
John M. Read is now in favor of a Protective
Tariff, as yet they have accumplshed nothing.
True, they have declared that the name signed
to the published copy of the celebrated letter
addressed to Mr. Dallas when Vice President
of the United States, is not John M. Read,
yet the gentlemen singled out as the one who
had appended his signature to it, positively
denies any knowledge of the letter. lindel
these circumstances, may it not be fairly pre
sumed that John M. Read, who at that time
was an avowed advocate of Free Trade, and
who wrote editorial articles for a Democratic
paper in this city in favor of that principle, is
the one who signed the letter, and that the
substitution of an " F." for an " M." was a
typographical error. The present candidate
for Supreme Judge on the " People's Ticket,"
is, of course, able to settle this question ; but
as yet he has not denied that he signed the
letter in question.

Tho large and beautiful Court Room in
Butler was lighted up on Friday evening last, 1
and was thronged by the friends of Capt.
John Birmingham, who had assembled in obe
dience to a call issued by the Democratic Vigil
lance Committee of the Twenty-Second Dis
trict. The meeting was large and highly re
spectable. Indeed it was mainly composed
of the most cautious and prudent men of the
party—men who think before they act, and
who are not willing to sacrifice their princi
ples to temporary doctrines of expediency, or
to tight a Congressional campaign on a one
man i , sue," and that man a Black Republican.
Many of the gentlemen of the opposition
party were also present, watching with, evi
dent interest the proceedings of the meeting,
believing, as they had heretofore done, that
they had successfully hoodwinked the Demo
cratic party, and were certain in any event
to secure the election of one of their own
friends, and effectually to silence not only the
voice of the Democracy of the District, but
utterly destroy its orraniz•ttinn. They looked,
of course, with jealousy and anger upon a
meeting 'which was not only to break up their
well digested plans, but to rue to actiur
those from whom they could not and dare no
expect anything.
Geo. W. Crozier, Esq., of the borouv,l, t,f
Butler, was on motion called to the chair, and
George Boyd, Esq., of Clay township. was
chosen Secretary.
On motion, the lien Chas. Shalor was re
quested to address the meeting. The appear
ance of this silver haired veteran of a hun
dred Democratic battles, upon the bench
uh'ere he had served fur ten years, was
hailed with applause. Judge ::haler spoke
with great spirit and enthusiasm, as fulluws :

afraid to do right, or because II contemptible
combination of office holders and interested nol
iticians have told you to do otherwise ?
Mr. John Birmingham, a citizen of your dis
trict, a farmer, effitivetjug his own land in Ohio
township, (although now acting as Prothonotary
of Allegheny county,) is preseatted by regularly
organized meetings of the Democracy as the
Democratic candidate to Congress for the Twen
ty-Second District. I have known Captain
John Birmingham from his earliest youth.
For full thirty years he has been active, popu
lar and a supporter of the Democratic party.
His time, his talents, hie means have been ap
propriated to its advancement, and he has ad
hered to its principles With scrupulous fidelity.
No more honorable man breathes. In all the re
lations of life, he stands fair, and ho has ac
quired among his fellow citizens a character of
undeviating integrity. In his official Situation
be is above all praise, active and industrious,
perfectly acquainted with the duties of his cffiee,
, i d pue etaal In the discharge of those duties in
their minute operations. A person more worthy
of public support could not easily be found.
Having been selected, we have deemed it cur
duty to urge his support from the Democratic
party, feeling confident of his succese, should
that party act toe him with that unanim
ity that is duo to its

As to those persons who by the ttepuhli i
cans and the intrigues of our own party, hive
been raised up as Candidates, a very few words
will dispose of them, we do not mean to die
parago those individuals. You have seen them
and boe'ard them, and that is enough. Mr.
M'Knight's, principles of black Republicanism
are openly avowed, ho is a` roan of candor and
integrity, he makes no concealments, ho is the
out and out enemy of Democracy, and does not
solicit your votes. He is a man of education and
fortune, of lair abilities and will no doubt, ad
here to his party and oppose ours with all the
vigor he possesses. As to Mr. Thomas Williams,
he need; no praise from any man. You. have
heard him for three hours upon a stretch, and
during that time if he did not devote two hours
to Tom Williams and ono to his .subject e he has

If he tells ihs truth of himself nothing can
withstand him.—he is greater than all the sons
of the earth. Before him, executive, legislative
and judicial window bows down ;—the judges are
fools and the people greater fools for having pat
them into office, and the Democracy who have
elected them all, will be the greatest of all fools
in his estimation. And now observe his condo
scension. He is willing to run for Congress to
get through your votes an office that insures
him three thousand dollars a year and leave you
to whistle for some man to support repudiation.
Once send him to Congress, his sympathy with
the tax payers, his nonsensical tirade about pike
and gun to defend his house from tax collectors,
his talk about revolution and lianid .n, and nil

the Democracy, will vanish in thin nor Ho will

Fellow-citizens, you have the three candidates
before you ; two Black Republicans., M'Knight
and Williams; one Democrat, Birmingham. Na
Democrat thinks of supporting M'Knight. As
he is the regularly nominated candidate of his
party, he will receive the strange: vote on that
side. Mr. Williams will undoubtedly so far di
vide the vote with him that a fair chance is given
for the success of the Democratic candidate.
The question is, will you unite your whole vote
in the district upon Nli. Birmingham ? If you
.10, you can elect him ; or will you be persuaded
to throw away a portion of it to Mr. Williams,
to ensure the election of Mr. M'Knight 7
Patriotic Democrats, I appeal to you in the
hour of trial. Will' you deert your banner ?
Will you forfeit your privileges '.' or will you, by
Ia combined action in the performance of your
great duties, 'memo the success of the Demo
cratio party, and give a National loonectatio
Congressman to your D'strict ?
R. Biddle Roberts, Esq., the Chairman of
the Democratic State Committee, was then
called upon, and in his remarks most elo
quently and clearly defined the duties of the
Democracy to themselves and to their party
organization. Ills address is an admirable,
cogent and logical presentation of the doe
trines of sound Democracy and sound corns
mon sense. Mr. Roberts speaks, as he thinks
and acts, lor the best interests of the great
national party of the country, and is foarless
in oppw. , ing every wovement which is eali:,u
lated to weaken the strength ot the Deaa-
Ley or give position and power to any one
s enemies.
REMARKS OF R. BIDDLE RuBE I
Mr. Roberts spoke in substance as follows
That in the discharge ut his duties as
member of the State Committee he had tra
versed the greater portion of the State, ani
was gratified t find the Democratic prospects
bright and cheering—not only so far as the
State ticket was concerned, but also as to the
Congressional elections, in which he found the
Democracy of every district up and doing.
Observing this to be the current of events, he
could not stand idly by and see the iiite of
nearly five thousand Democrats, as he believ
ed, thrum into the Black Republican scale ;
that he felt it to he his duty to come there to
counsel with the true and tried of the old But•
ler district, who never falter in the mainte
nance of Democratic doctrine, whether it be
in the storm or in the sunshine. Impressed
with the. importance of the Democratic vote
in this district, as well in the State as in the
national contest, he felt called upon to urge
upon our Democratic friends the necessity,
importance and propriety of voting for a gen
tleman fur Congress, whose long service iu the
Democratic ranks would give sonic assurance
id his faithful support and adherence to the
National Democracy of the country---of one
who would accord, in his Congreasional career,
to the National Administration, a warm and
cordial support. and not to one whose lite had
been spent in resistance to the great and fun.
damental principles of our party, and in the
billingsgate defamation, alike of those princi
ples, and of those who profess to follow them.
Mr. B. was alike opposed to both the
Black Republican candidates whose ames
had been presented to the people. Mr. Mc-
Knight, the regular nominee of the Black Re
publican party, became, by such nomination,
the representative of their principles, and of
course had nu right either to ask or expect
any Democrat to vote for him. By the prin.,
ciples and faith which he professed, and by
the platform upon which he stood, must he
stand or fall. No Democrat could certainly
so far forget himself or what was duo to his
party as to vote for him.
Mr. Williams, another Black Republican
candidate, placed in the field at the solicitas
Lion of nobody, and running as the represent
ative of no party, sect or creed—a sort of no--
litical Ishmaelite, whose hand was against
everybody, certainly was not entitled to the
confidence of anybody, more particularly to
that of the true Democrat. Owing to Mr.
Williams' anomalous position in the political
arena, it was difficult to speak of him with ont
indulging in personality—a mode of political
warfare to which Mr. R. seldom, if ever, re
sorted ; but when a gentleman saw tit to run
for Congress upon exclusively personal claini:4,
without avowing himself as the representas
Live of any set of national principles, and
without discussing, or even alluding to any of
the important questions likely to be the sub
ject of national legislation, and claiming his
election solely from the fact that he held cer
tain views upon a purely local question, to
wit: the so called Tax Question, we have no
way to deal with him, save to look to his per
sonal antecedents, and to judge from them
what is likely to be his future political course.
Fortunately, in the present contest, Mr. Wil
liams is not without some political reputation,
and, so far as Mr. R. was aware, he, Mr. Wil
liams, had not, in any way or at any time, in
timated any change of his political views.
From our earliest knowledge of him he has
been a bitter, unrelenting, and most eloquent
and efficient opponent of Democratic men and
measures ; and in the last great political con•
test which convulsed the country he was the
warm and active supporter of the sectional
candidate fur President, John C. Fremont,
and the bitter and savage opponent of James
Buchanan, the Democratic national candidate.
Certain it is that in two short years no change
can have taken place in Mr. Williams' politi
cal position—at least we have yet to hear
such claim made by his friends. Can it be
possible, then, that the Democracy of Butler
will aid in the elevation of either of the two
gentlemen named to a seat in the coining Con
gress—a Congress which may hold, at some
future day, the destinies of our common coun
try—a Congress which, by its vote, may de- 1
(side who is to hold the helm of State for the
four years after 1SC)0. Can it be that any
Democrat will surrender to any Black Repub•
lican—to any friend of a sectional candidate
for president—(be his views upon the tax
question what they may,) the right to vote in
the coming Congress, fur President of the
United States. Every where throughout the
Union we can already see that every party,be it
called by what name it may, is at work to dis
cover some common issue, some national ce•
ment, by which they may unite in opposition
to the great Democratic party of the country.
At such a moment of political importance, can
it be that the Democracy of Butler will falter,
and threw their preponderating vote in favor
of any opponent of the Democratic party ?
Because, if in the coming contest for Presi
dent, the election should, under any circum
stances, go into the House of Representatives,
the most disastrous and fatal results, by the
means already alluded to, may follow from
this single misstep.
If Mr. Williams possessed any , personal
force in the Black Republican party, and
could distrac t and divide it, certainly the
Democrats of the district were entitled to the
advantage of such division, and their clear
and plain ditty was to poll their vote for a
Democrat, which, if done firmly and unitedly,
would inevitably secure the election of a man
who would purely and properly represent the
wishes and views of the Democratic party of
the district.
- Mr. R. appealed to the Democrats in this
hour of peril 111111 of danger, to re-illunie their
w.lich fired, change their sentinelu4, ;mud re
Ireshe.l by a temporary pause in the conflict,
fall again into column, and press to victory,
fighting where the banneriof Democracy fly
highest and proudest, and not following the
ignis fatui hung out by the opposition, to
be lost in the swamps of Black Republi
canism.
Mr. Roberts was bllowed by lion. P. C.
Shannon, who made a most eloquent address.
Our space is so limited, that we, arc reluctantly
compelled to defer our report of Judge Sharp,
non's remarks until to-morrow.
At the close of the meeting a large number
of the Democrats who were present, came
down to Zimmernian's Hotel, and paid their
respects in person to Capt. Birmingham, as
suring him of their warm and cordial support

LAurope on Privateerlog
The Washington .57,ates remarks that our
statesmen are at last opening their eyes to the
true meaning of all these European invita.
tions to partnership treaties. These entana
gling alliances, from the Clayton-Bulwer
fraud onward, invariably bide a handcuff of
some kind for the young giant of the West.
Those European powers who cannot come
pate with our vast force of sea volunteers,
hope we will be 5 . .) humanely verdant as to
renounce our privateer strength, and leave
their large navies entirely free to menace our
seaboards and blockade our ports.
We utterly dissent from the infer i f Secre
tary Marcy to resign our incomparable advan
tages and engage not to use our privateer su
periority, if other nations will agree to res
pect private property. No wise statesman
would cripple this right arm of our unequal
ed sea strength by any promises .it conlitions
whatever. We have an example in our citi

on the Isthmus, of the value of these one-
sided bargains, and a Secretary of State, ca
pable of repeating this suicidal folly, is unfit
to hold a place in the Cabinet. Wu were

circumstances whatever.
A childish terror of what England will do
or say -a weak di sire to lie lauded in the
Court journals of Europe is, a chronic mala
dy with most of our statesmen, and when
eV't* they have it in their potaer to buy the
smiles of European royalty at the expense of
the interests of the American ptiple, we are
generally sacrificed. This subservienoy cost
us Cuba and Central America during the last
Administration, and it is now at work to in
veigle us into playing constable nn the Isth
mus, and debt collector in Mexico, for the
benefit of England. Let us hope this
will be defeated.
The UhlneFie 'Vrea:y
The English treaty with China is consid
ered a great work of diplomacy in Englll.'ol,
and Lord Elgin, is extolled for his Skill and
sound judgment. The English papers count
on a great increase of trade with China as a
consequence of it. The greatest share of
diplomatic honor is claimed, of course, for
the English plenipotentiary. The Times
says th3i.t the most important at ties the
treaty—the Resident Minister at Pekin, and
le right of Eng,libhmen to go to any par
the Empire, for curiosity or trade
in peril at the very last moment, and were
obtained by I;rigland single handed, and only
by a stroke of happy audacity. The Rus‹. -
sians, it charges, resorted to intrigues to de
feat the negotiations, and it adds, " When
the Russian and American eagles take a con
panion flight, the younger bird does the wort
and the elder eats the prey."
[P.r the Morning Pest.]
Mr. Editor: I am reminded of the devastation
of , a large portion of Pittsburgh a few years ago
by fire, from reading the alarming accouuts of
distress Which are circulated around Vicksburg
from the dreadful ravages of the yellow fever.
There is more suffering there from pestilence
than we can ever imagine at this distance, and
there is no doubt but that the poor are destitute
of the necessities of life. I write this for the
purpose of giving a hint to persons who are now
wealthy, who received largo sums from the
"charity fund" sent here to relieve the wants of
those who suffered by that unfortunate confla
gration. It is not my wish or desire to name
any persona who have Lean the recipients of that
" fund." But I am well aware of several who
are wealthy by oflieo and otherwise, who could
well spare out of their " pile " the snug amount
then received. This act of restitution would be
looked on as Christian benevolence, which would
show at least that their hearts were not seared
to charity. Besides, what they then got to aid
them in their dire calamity, should now be re
funded, and that with interest. The poor and
distressed of this ill-fated place, would rejoice
and be the means, no doubt, to alleviate the die
tress that pervades all glasses there
And those who are foremost now in expressing
themselves against the payment of taxes, should
not be last in bestowing a charity that they
themselves were glad to receive. It is to be
hoped that this gentle hint will bring forth the
needful that they have fingered so long. Five
hundred dollars from each of those who are
wealthy (with twelve years interest) would be a
G send to the distressed of Vicksburg ; and
how much better it would look in the eyes of the
humane, for the rich office holders to disgorge
that which of right does not belong to them,
than placing it in a newspaper speculation.
