Meeting of the Democratic County Com- At a meeting of the Democratic Commit tee of Huntingdon county on Saturday the 14th day of July, A. D. 1855, it was Resolved-Ist—That moving on in her orbi as of old, the Democratic party is still true to her ancient faith ; and that she repudiates all the modern political heresies of the day, and es pecially the selfish, proscriptive, and intollerant heresy commonly known as "Know-Nothing. ism," as anti-republican, dishonest, and at war with American institutions it falsely pretends to uphold. 2d—That all citizens of whatever political at tachments heretofore, who love their country, and would save her from the domination of unscru pulous demagogism, and the most ruinous po litical charlatanry,. a foretaste of which we have been furnished with in our last legislature, should unite in burying past honest differences and checking the schemes and success of these self-ConstitutZd dictators of the people—the mas ses of whom are the deceived dupes of the lead ers, who are for the most part, the rotten refuse,' and cast off excrements of the two old political parties. 3d—That the Democratic citizens of the va rious boroughs and townships in Huntingdon county, are requested to meet at their usual pla ces in said boroughs and townships, on Satur day the 11th day of August, and elect two del egates to represent them in a general County Convention to be held in the borough of Hun tingdon on Wednesday the 15th day of August next, to place in nomination a county ticket to be supported at the ensuing election ; and elect je Representative Delegate to the next 4th of March State Convention, &c.; ''snd that in or der to avoid treachery, that they be recom mended to require a pledge of their delegates, that they are not members of the secret politi cal order, generally known as "Know Noth ings," and that they repudiate the political principle of said order—and that they also re quire a like pledge of voters at said delegate elections.

Websters Dictionary is the only acknowl edged standard in this country ; and we are creditably informed that, if there is a stan dard in England it is Webster. It is con sidered the most complete, accurate and use ful Dictionary by Bancroft, Prescott, Horace Mann, Cass, Benton, Clay, Daniel Webster, Winthrop, Sparks,Tho. Dick, Brougham; and a host of others in the literary galaxy with over one hundsed members of Congress have endorsed the' same opinion. If we wish our language to rise in beauty and harmOny above the mixed and mongrel dialects of for eigners as well as the vulgar provincialisms of our land, "There is no point to which the guardians of our schools should be direct ed with more watchful or earnest attention, than to the training of all the pupils to a competent and correct acquaintance with our mother tongue." Our language is now the most extensively spoken. of any on the face of the earth. It is not only spoken but stu died, and admired far to the east of the Gan ges, and far to the vest of the Mississippi.— It is destined to become the universal lan guage, not only on account of the. vast amount of books, periodicals, tracts, and newspapers sent abroad among the nations, but on account of the persevering industry of the Christian Missionary. Every hour of the day as the morning sun in its onward course lights up new regions, the voice of the Missionary teacher is raised to heaven in prayer, for the light of knowledge to beam upon the bowed condition of the heathen. Let our language, then, he studied in its fulty. The decision has already been made, and the highest degree of excellence conferr%l - '-upon Webster. " The scepter which the great Lexicographer wields has been most worthily won." It is the Hercu lenean achievement of sixty years hard toil. Again and again he crossed the Atlantic, stu• died in Scotland and England, bidding the universities of Oxford, Edinburg, and Cam bridge to pay tribute to his literary enter prise. We find in the American an advertisement of a Dictionary by a Mr. Worcester : we also find an editorial recommending the work and condemning Webster. If our County Superintendent is responsible for this attack upon Webster and puff of the other, we re gret it,not only on account of it being an offi cial infringement, on a well established stan dard, but because it is a direct violation of the very law which creates the office of County Superintendent. Next week we shall ponsider the merits of Worcester the pretender. mittee ‘ , 4 Little More Grape, Captain Bragg." It is evident from the article under the cap tion "The Street Regulators Again" in the last American that the writer thereof is in an uneasy position. He handles the subject of controversy and would convey to the pub lic mind the idea that he haddelved the facts of the case, exposed and fairly commented on the same. His article is little else than a cunningly devised fable, misrepresenting the facts, and calculated to produce in the reader a wrong impression of the transaction. We proceed to examine his blustering. .143 says the Globe has been in "great tribu lation, for weeks past, on account of a mat "ter of but small concern to its readers."— Ever sine the advent of Know-Nothingism we have strenuously opposed its spread and condemned its unholy principles, as our rea ders will attest; a majority of whom endorse our position. We have read and published instances of its proscription which occurred throughout the country ; now, we have an example at home which fully illustrates that particular principle of the sect. - This princi ple and its illustrative example is interesting to the readers of the Globe, because it occurs at home, where each can, for himself,• exam ine the facts. Probably if the allegation of tribulation was made toward the writer of the _American, the end of truth would be bet ter served. A careful examination of the whole of the article in question would lead to such a conviction. The writer says "Mr. BLACK did not want the appointment" and Mr. MILLER. has all his time otherwise taken up.. "This being the case, at the next meeting the veto on said resolution was duly re-considered, and an election was gone into which resulted in the choice of JAMES STEEL, Esq., P. C. SWOOPE and J. F. RAMEY ." Who prevaricates now? Neither Mr. BLACK nor Mr. MILLER. declined serving as Regulators. The former expressed an indifference a's to whether he was re-elec ted or not for reason of the meagre wages— one dollar per day—and who would not in these days of high prices Either pf the gentlemen, however, would, had they been called on, discharged the duties of the office. —ln the Journal of the proceedings of the Burgesses and Town Council, the following is recorded : Buntingdon, May Bth, 1855 Burgesses and Town Council elect met pursuant to notice, at the office of Daniel Af rica, Esq.; Burgesses, Town Council and Supervisors sworn, &c, Oa motion, William I.

Thus the record stands, which every citi zen has a right to, and can examine if he de sires. Nov prithee Mr. writer where is that "resolution" on which you built your hopes. We have searched the minutes of the Board in vain for it and concluded that it was only ait imera of your excited brain. In pursu ance of the ordinance passed 10th Nov. 1800, an extract from which was published in out issue of the 4th ultimo, the present board of Borough Fathers, on the Bth of May last, as will appear from the minutes published above, elected JACOB MILLER, DAVID BLACK. and J. SIMPSON AFRICA, Regulators. They were duly, LEGALLY elected in the presence of the last named which would be sufficient notice to him. The others were informed of their election by members of the board. "Such are the PLAIN and simple facts of the case" as appear by the Journal. We are further enlightened : 'And now " for the Globe's fabrications:" it is asserted " that the above action was prompted by a "proscriptive spirit. The plain unvarnished " fact negative this idea." Have you any sense of truth 1 You knew sir, when penning those sentences that you were falsifying.— When the election of Regulators, May Bth, became generally known, several gentlemen, members of the Know Nothing Order de nounced the action of the "Fathers" as con demnable, and allectged that they had viola ted their obligations in electing persons who were not members of the Order. This announcement coming from persons of high authority in the patty produced in some of the members of Borough Council not a little trepidation. Among, and one of this num- ber was John A. Nash of the American. He stated to another member of the board, that- this matter (the election of Messrs MILLER, BLACK and Ar nrcA,) had been discussed and objected to, by the members of the Order, and that cer tain gentlemen whom we can name, if neces sary, had made objections, and that thre- ts were made to bring a charge against the Burgesses and Town Council in the "Order" unless that election of Regulators was revo ked; that he John A. Nash, was afraid that, that would be done, and might give them trouble and urged this member to vote for the reconsideration of the election. In fear of such charge the reconsideration of May 25th was had, for it was distinctly stated in the Council room by a member of the board (whose name we can give when necessary) that the objections to the Regulators they had elected. were that they were not members of the Order. This was talked about, was un derstood by every member present, and We assert was the reason why the reconsidera tion was had. This statement, Mr. writer, you can not, and in the face of truth you DARE NOT deny. If this is not proscription we know not what else to term it, and we pro nounce you guilty of wilful premeditated falsehood. "The appointment DEJACOB MILLER, Esq., "Treasurer is another evidence of the falsity "of the Globe charge." Mr. MILLER al "though an excellent man in any station has "all his time taken up in the service of the "Broad Top Company as its Treasurer and "Secretary." Then if his time is too much occupied to serve - as regulator why burden him with the office of Treasurer of the bor ough of Huntingdon? Because his election on May Bth was legal and as he can be re moved for misconduct only his election could not be revoked. To excuse the board for the removal of the third Regulator, Mr. Africa, the American's writer produces the same argument used in a former article on the same subject, that it is incompatible for a member of the Council to serve as Regulator. This we exploded two weeks ago. His legal objection is con- - trary to the custom for half a century. In 1807, JOHN BLAIR, Esq.—one of the Assistant Burgesses- 7 occupying the same position— was elected a Regulator. In 1808, ANDREW HENDERSON, Esq., Assistant Burgess and JoEN MCCABE, a Councilman, were elected; in 1810, the latter named, still a Councilman, was elected; so also in 1811, 1815 and 1816. Wy,LIADt STEEL, Esq.,who was an Assistant Burgess for 1824, '25 and '26, was elected and served as Regulator during the same years. HENRY MILLER, Chief Burgess in 1825 served in the same office. We could cite instances of the kind down to the pres ent time but our space does not allow it nor the effectual refutation of the sagacious wri ter's objection demand it. If any one has doubts he can have them allayed by an ex amination of the record which does not lie. The remaining part of the article in the American is foreign to, the question and it is not necessary that we should answer it.— It consists of a cowardly insinuation against citizens of this borough- Now readers of the Globe we have given a fair, unrefutable statement of this case, and may wa ask what motive prompted this action ? Facts and an unprejudiced public answer : The proscription of the Know Nothing Order. In this petty transaction, which is dishonor able to the parties concerned, is a fair sam ple of the proscription of a party which, if it could gain a permanent ascendency in our country, would prevent the election to offices of any, except such as are sworn to lie and act dissembler. True the Know Nothing party contains many honest and intelligent men for whom we have a high regard; but we are sorry to see thein become the dupes and follow in the wake of corrupt and de signing political tricksters. From the Chicago• Times. Cruelty of Abolitionism. A Mr. Henry, of Virginia , arrived in Pitts burg with a number o negroes,on his way to Ohio, where he proposed to purchase them homes, and put them in a way-to support themselves comfortably. While in Pius burg the poor negroes wore induced by the abolitionists to believe that Mr. Henry bad an intention to keep them as slaves, and they not only abandoned him, but have become scattered over the northern parts of Pennsyl vania and Ohio. Mr. Henry made no effort to recapture them, as by their own act they had relieved him of an arduous task, impos ed on him by the will of a deceased friend, who ordered that upon his death his slaves be taken to Ohio, be there manumitted, and each of them provided with a good comfort able home, to be paid for out of his estate,- By the laws of Virginia slaves cannot be manumitted and remain in that State, and it was while these poor Africans were on their way to receive the bounties of their deceased master the abolitionists stepped in and defeat ed all the kindness. The abolition press and clergy are exaulting over the successful "robbery of the slaveolder." Alas! it was the negroes, and not the Virginian, who had been robbed. The estate retains the price which would have been paid for their farms and habitations, and the negroes are turned louse upon the world, with no hand to aid or encourage them. Experience has shown that an escaped slave, or a suffering, starving, perishing negro, can hope for but little actu al help from the abolitionists. They will help to steal him from his master, and that done will let him perish by the road-side for want of bread. For all the suffering and want to which these poor AfriCans may be subjected the sentimental liberty-mongers, and cracked-brained zealots who deal out condemnation to all who would not make war upon the South, will be held - responsible before a just God. ' This case is a very fair example of the real charity abolitionism is capable of dispensing, the ostensible editor Great Excitement The Huntingdon and Broad Top Road was opened, in part, on Monday last. At three o'clock the locomotive "Beaver," 'purchased by the company, arrived, and was, immedi ately- placed upon this great improvement, and with tender crowded with men and boys, passed over tie completed part of the road, some eight miles. In the evening at six, two trucks, having been fitted up with seats for the occasion, and crowded with some two hundred of the people, were at tached to the "Beaver," and an excursion trip was made, pleasant to all concerned, and we suppose equally so to those who were lookers on. When "the good times come ing," come, we expect to have a jolly ride in "the wagon." ' [l:The Whigs of 'Blair county are kick ing out of the Know-Nothing traces by hun dreds. Last week the County Convention, held by order of the Wltig County Commit tee, exploded, the delegates opposed to the dark lantern party withdrawing. They, the straight-outs, have ordered another Conven tion to be held on the 28th ink., when the dark lantern gentry ccan't come in.' The straight-out Whigs of this county are not as fortunate as they are in Blair—there they have an organ,—here they have none. Gabe, would-be, their organ. grinder, but ho is not yet in their ranks—he is a Know- Nothing and an illegal voter at that. Such a case, the Whigs who have any respect for themselves, Would rather should remain with his fellows in the dark lantern party.
