political horiziu, so far, is the hesitancy mani

nia to; 'withdraw from Uncontest, urging his
political brethren inst.uitly to rally around Mr.
C as the representative in this canvass of one'
of the fundamental principles of the the Amer
ican governmental system, which cannot be
abused without dragging down in its train all
the other cherished peculiar features of Amer
ican institutions, which; having had full play
up to this time, have made us the freest, hap
piest and most prosperous people in the world."
Aha! it is there you are ? .,. Very sage advice to
Mr. John Hamilton, who, with three or four
candidates running, stands a very fair chance
of slipping in between them! Bnt we cannot
understand how the neglect of the Whigs to re
nominate Mr. Chandler makes him the repre
sentative Of any fundamental principle of the
American gpvernmental system. ' Ileis talcmS
ed, attentive and influential, and as wo have
said before, we should prefer to see him re-el-J
ecu?a rather t nan. have I'niiaueiphia represent
ed by any mediocre man. 13ut he : has been
twice honored by the Whig party, and before
the last convention he stood pledged not to be
a candidate for re-nomination, and but far that
pledge the lion. Robert T. Conrad would have'
been elected for the term which Mr. Chandler
is now filling.' In consonance with that pledge
he was not a candidate before the Whig Con -
vention, though he had mauy warm personal
friends who were members of that body. We
cannot see that any great principle has been
violated.- In a company of several gentlemen
the other evening, who had always voted for
him, the question was asked, "is Mr. Chandler
a Roman Catholic?" and no one could answer.
His creed, therefore, could have had nothing
to do with tho action of tho Convention. He
an . issue i l Philadelphia,' whether Ave will or
not. The Democrats have conjured up the
phantom of Know Xbthism, and as they have,
been heretofore certain of the Irish Catholic
vote, they, think to secure also the. Irish and
German Protestant vote. Whether they will
succeed, time will show. Of one thing we are
certain, and that is, Mr. Chandler will consult
the niaintainance of bis well earned reputa
tion, by weighing well his position, before he
allows himself to-be made the cat's paw of
those designing demagogues he has opposed
through a life time. Phira. Sun.
Know Nothings in Old Berks.
The Reading Journal states that the Know
Xothing Democrats in the borough of Bern
vine, achieved a very decided victory over the
Schreckerizeiten Democrats at the Delegate
election last Saturday. It appears that Mr.
Edwin C. Brockway, the candidate for Clerk
of the Sessions, as is usual with the party lead
ers in this county, "fixed a ticket" to be ruu
by the faithful, Avhich he of course expected to
have chosen, without opposition. On counting
the votes, however, Brockway and his clique
were thunderstruck to find that two of their
men were defeated, and the third within an
ace of falling behind, also, "by another ticket
which had been run without the knowledge or
consent of the leaders." Information of this
untoward result was immediately expressed to
Reading the next morning, several members
of the "Schreckenzeiten" Order proceeded to
Bernville to, "head off"' the successful "Know
Xothings," but it was no go. . The latter
could not be induced to decline, but came and
took their seats in the Convention. ' It was at
first determined to oust them, but upon ascer
taining that at least "one-third of the whole
number of Delegates were of the same clan,the
leaders concluded it was best to keep quiet.
It is also stated that a result precisely simi
lar to that -of Bernville, occurred at. the Demo
cratic Delegate Election in Friendenburg.
Regulars were defeated and Know Xothings
carried the day and so in several other town
ships an 1 boroughs. At Wonielsdorf, report
says, there was a glorious row in the party, oc
casioned by the running of Know X'othing del
egates. The "Order" seems to be in great fa
vor with the country democracy.
J. Ellis Eon ham.
The Democrats of the York, Cumberland
and Perry District have nominated J. Ellis
Bbnham for Congress. This is the individual
who writes the inanities current under the
name of Democratic Slate Addresses. The
Perry .faleocale, a .Democratic journal, takes
him down in the following pungent style:

Gov. Bicler at TnE Xortu. The Governor
addressed the Democracy . of Bradford conntr
at Tovanda,- on Monday last. The following
notico of his speech we clip from the Brad
ford Jrgns, by which it will be seen that his
mission to the Xorth, is . not likely to accom
plish much lor himself or his party:
."Gov. BifrW's offortR tKntiRfv tb no

! TTioifAtiWsrrFLi;Ef sT Ottr-government,
as administered under; democratic auspices,
not only refuses to clear the 'snags out of the
Western rivers, but wantonly throws away the
costly instrumentalities prepared for their re
moval under other administrations. The fol
lowing from the St '. Lonis Republican affords
considerable food for thought in this connec
tion. -
, On Monday,' -us we said would be the" case,
the sacrifice of the United States Snag Boats
took place,' and a great :, sacrifice it was. Two
of them were sold, with all their tackle, ap
parel and furniture, and one of them brought
$3,900 and the other $4,100. As we under
stand it, this included everything attached to
tho boats, and in this manner they were trans
ferred to Messrs. Eeds & Nelson, who arc very
honorable and worthy gentlemen.' They get
the boats for about $8,000 cash, or 5 1,000 each.
We have not time to go through the docu
ments to see what has been lost by the gov
ernment, but a hasty examination of the ac
counts shows us that, for four snag boats, the
United States paid last year S144,12I 2-3.
These boats were built under the superinten
dence of Capt. Russell, and two of them have
now been sold. The original cost of the two
was about $72,000, and now, thanks to Pres
ident Pierce and a few old flnnkies about
Washington, this property has been sacrificed,
and only some eight thousand dollars will be
paid into the Treasury under this proceeding.
What has been going on? Can any one tell?
Where was the necessity for this sale, when
' the boats were wanted, when Congress had
'! passed a bill authorizing the operation for the
fiscal year, and nothing was interposed but
the Executive veto? Was there ever such a
squandering of property as the giving away of
$72,000 for the paltry sum of $8,0(X)'.
Jtdge Wordixq on President Pierce's
Violated Pledge. Judgo Wording, of Ra
cine, makes the following statement over his
and had at that time a conversation with him
in relation to appropriations by the General
Government for the improvement of Western
rivers and harbors. Taking a bound volume
of printed speeches and letters in his jiand, he
turned to the letter of Silas Wright to the
Chicago Convention, and observed that the
sentiments of that letter were his own; that he
was not in favor of appropriations by the Gen
eral Government for the purpose of creating
commerce in places where it did not exist, it
ought to he protected and encouraged, and that
he had no more doubt of the constitutionality
and expediency of appropriations by the Gen
eral Government for the improvement of Wes
tern rivers and harbors, than he had of the
constitutionality and expediency of appropri
ations by the General . Government for the
construction of light-houses and other similar
objects on' the Atlantic coast; and he added,
"1 understand the letter of Silas Wright to
the Chicago Convention to be satisfactory to
all Western men." These are his statements
as then made, and to show that I am not mis
taken, I copy this statement of his from a
j memorandum then made at General Pierce's
More Free Democratic Movemexts. Meet
ings were held recently at , Diruock Corner
and Montrose in Susquehanna county. Thcy
were stronger . in numbrrs and enthusiasm
than the meetings addressed by the Governor.
Speeches condemnatory of the Xebraska in
iquity and its supporters were made by Hon.
G. A. Grow, the "fusion" candidate for Con
gress, and Hon. David Wilmot- At the Mon
trose meeting the Register says the Iat named
gentleman spoke for two hours and a half, and
that his address was the most able and eloquent
ever delivered by him at that place. It was a
masterly ell'oit in behalf of Freedom, and
knocked the sophistry and noncommittalism
of Bigler "sky-high." Mr. Grow also made a
powerful speech. He took and triumphantly
maintained his position with Mr. Wilmot and
the great body of the people of the Xorth.
The enthusiasm with which the speeches of
these distinguished gentlemen were received
shows that the people are sound to the core on
the great question of Freedom, and that Gov
ernor Bigler having allied himself with the ori
ginators and supporters of the Xebraska swin
dle will in the language of Mr. Chase, the
Democratic ex-Speaker, and editor of the
Montrose Democrat, "receive tho earnest and'
scathing rebuke of the people"-at the October
election. '
