ADDRESS
OF VIM CENTRAL COMMUTE TO THE
DEMOCRATIC PARTY OF TUSSSYL
VAX1A. Pnww CiTtcttvai
The elec Ion which ha jtrt closed,- is bu! (he
beginning of ibe struggle. Federalism with ell iu
immense resource of money on. I trickery is in the
ill IJ in J has done its utmost agiinst tho determined
phalanx of democracy, with litto succoe-. It ia
now reorganizing fur the great national battle on
tho DOih day of this ufonth. l.a enrrgic v. t ( br
eiruine I to the most extreme limit, for it routing
ft power, fur money, for ita very existence.' All
these eortaidcrritiona are involved in tqis Prcsidcn
ttal election, and give to it a solemnity ami an irn
portmce rarely equalled and never surpassed since
the cetsb'ishment of our government. To loe
thie election, will be to all honest, tiue-hesrtrd de
mocrat", the deepest of all misfortunes. It will
proeliale for a timo at least, the great principle of
the parly, in support of which, we have toiled for
year, it will obliterate all truce of the reform lions
effected by Gen. Jackson, and it will peril the very
hopee we indulge, thit our liberty is not to perish be
fore our.olves What f Ironger inducement to arouse
men to action, than thie can he furnished f Ho
who will not . he on the alert at such a crisis,
cither does not appreciito h i own rights, and
those) of his children, or has not the courage to
defend them.
As far as the returns hove come in, an I that is
frntn a considerable portion of the state, tho popu
lar vnte shows that the democratic majority exceeds
wh.it it wa in 1 830, by ttpwtrds of a thous ind in
the same counties, and exec, di the democratic. ma
jority in 1838 by a much larger numb r. There
is not therefore the least cause for apprehension as
to the aggicgate democratic majority in the state,
it cannot fill short of 12.000, although in on
quenco of the unconstitutional and iniqui oua
apportionment bill, passed by the fed- ral hsla
turo in 1636, the federalist may h.ivn a mrjority
in one-or bo h of tbo houses I Lit ikis moti
from injustice, then, stimu'ate cvciy democrat to
action.
Should by chanctf a federal mnj rity hri clcct.-d
to cither branch of tho legislature, wi h a large
democratic majority in the stale, instead i f being
discouraged, it should lire every patriots heart with
:ndignalion! l.ot it not b. said, that in Pennsyl
vania, fraud can triumph over the people ! bet it
not be said that this good old Keystone Mate of
' urs, the Gibraltar of American Democracy, has
Seen sacked and pillogod byour ft. It ral fops, bo
. ausehcr sentinels slepl upon their posts, end did
i.ot adopt tLe ncce.-smy precautions to defl nd her
gainst the attacks of tho federal stppes a .d mi
ners!
Arouse, then, Democratic ft I low citizens ! Call
meetings in every county of the state bring evny
"ia i to the polls on the 30th detect the tricks of
your federal advorsariea, and impress ujion you
:' How citizens in every quartet, (lie necessity ol
. epping forward and giving that day to the service
f their country. The federal party are moro vigi
ant than evtr. TI.ey have called meetings to be
!u Id simultaneously throughout the whole state,
-tid ex: ect from this concerted movement, to pro
duce an apparent rxprts-i- n of popular opinion
which will intimidate and etiggei aotne of he less
ardi'tit of our democratic fiicnda. .To foil thes
effora, and turn th-m agiinst their au'hor, we
promis you in a few days, a fu'l and uccorato state
merit of the votes in every c. unty iu the apite,
from which you will see- precisely how the contest
stand'.
In thij m an time, we again urge upon you the
most determined and persevering activity. Fling
your I aiiurrs to the breeze, inrcr.bcd with the names
of Van bur. n and Job .son. The democracy will
rally round them, and bear them Irimphanily thro'
the battle.

The ixrar.nioi s and collapaes of the last ten
ythtt, hive taught this gf m rat on some le.sons
which tiny wi I hardly forget. At one lime, they
who sustained piices by a sjx-oulative furc'ug sys
tem were called hem fucturs. Milhous wcie sup
pi aed to be ssed to the iiation in the price, of cot
ton and flour, by attaining pricis st their natural
point. The eiTjit to keep up 11 ur was certainly
most worid.rfully kucciasTul. Every th ng wa on a
g'tad ca!e in those days ; and it did seem th t Oa-
toia's laws might lie set at defiance, and herself
subdued by her own children. The millers were
eager buyer of wheat, aF ei'iieme'y liigb piices:
and because they were so eager, anj bid so high,
the farmers would not sjII. Cioj s wcie t.u. kept
bark, and a ficiiiiou tcarcity created in the jnidsl
' of real plenty. But the unalterable l.iws of trsdt
have re-assumed their aupremacy. The over loaded
- eyate n hs brok- n down we now h ive a real ur
plus and piiete are too low, probab'y, in tlnir
vibration from the opposite extreme. By this re.
action, mischief has Lecn done w l.ict far outweighs
til the givx of high prices, aoJ people are th rougl
ly convinced that they do most to benefit the c-ui .
try, in Uiis depirtment, who most facilitate the lc
of produce, at whatever price the rcl itive infl uencea
of supply and demand may determine. When we
contemplate these things, how eifrprisingly.wiae
does the greil plan of nature appear I The crops
, Mbb t l squandered n alanae they rannut
reached until thrir time. Wlit-n, by the excesaiv
grasping of nun tbei usekse wealth, the whole
country i prmtrated money, credit, busir esa, sll
gone ihs ( th y.elds her golden lurveU as if

Whig Cnnd d .tea in Italia.
Our County.
The election lor member of the Legislature in
is county has terminated contrary to our expec
tations, and much aguinst our withes. Every rf-
rt thst c uld be mai'e(was made to defeat Mr.
Hrgins. Two p-essi a in this county pou cd fmth
eckly, column after lolunin of fali-ehood and de
struction, and several presses in the neighboring
Unties wero enlist, d in this dishonorable and con-
mptible course. And ss the last le-ort, the siJ of
the Whigs was invoked, by the publication of a
pcech abuting Gen. Harri-on in tho most scuniious
anguage, which wa falsely alleged to have been
made by Mr. Hegina. The few aprculatois, who
ore deeply interested in securing the election of
ese C. Horton, were prodigal i f the r money in
buying up these publications fi ltd with falsehood
and forcing them into almost every nun's h use til
the county. Tho opponents uf Mr. Hegin', in e
lecliontcring. made use of moms which no hono
rable man would dercend to. In the district in
hich he teaides, however, and where l.ia pjliticul
rinciplea and personal fiine.-s aro well kno'wn, and
those of hia opponent's to, he has Wen triumphant
ly sust lined, bating received a m i jority of 323
i t's nut of the 637 votes polled. I bis distr ct
ives nearly 300 of a democratic majority.
To the Foil I T the Folltll
On the 30th, the gnat ion'e-t which has liecn
raging in the Keystone Mate for the lest six m nths
with so much fi. rcencaa, between the Demorraey
nd the Federal party will he decided. Our oppo
nents are active and untiring in their cfib.U, but the
Democracy of tho Keystone whet roused into ac
lion are indomitable. Tbe returns of Ibe late elec
tion show that we have a majority of TEN THOU
SAND in the atate, and if every dcmocr.it turns
out on the 30th, and dors bis duty, wu can and we
will beat our opp nema front 10 o 20,000. Let
every democrat then come to the polls none must
ay at home. Our siati r counties are preparing for
the contest. The "Sl.r of the Noilh" and of the
West' have marshalled their forces, snd ' O d .Nor
thumberland" must not lag behind. Her democra
cy ure known thioughout the stute, und they must
in ke themsclrea tclt ton, by a majority of 1,000 fur
Van Burin, Jjhnson, and democratic piiucplea.
An Important Correction.

We are coomicllcd lo notice this print again, for

tliis publication, hundreds of extr i cop es of lliise
proccedn gs were struck off by ihe Gnxetu enl
up here and secretly distributed a day or two pre
vious to the election, for the purpose uf giving
colour lo the rumor that the administration were
opposed to the re-election of Mr. Hegina. A copy
of the proto. dings was also sent to the Mil on l.ed

name of Henry Peirikin, Deputy ISecielary of ihe
Commonwealth, as one of the c immiliee, although
he on the sp.il for.-ade hia name being connected
with tile proceeding in any way, and the Gazette
did not dure to use it, but it was forwarded to the
Ledger to give them additional weight and tho bet

The whole affair is a moft disgricelul outrage,
and no conductors of a ublic press, having the
least pr. tension to character or respectabili'y, would
be guiliy of so base an imposition upon the com
munity.
We have received a U tter upon the subject from
