If we could hut. know how much we owe to these causes, the anstivtesary of the day on which our free system was - inaugurated would be hallowed in all heat•ts except those which are wholly "regardless of social duty and fatally bent on doing mischief." It is, however, upon our own great State, that the bounties of the Creator have been most profusely lavi-hed.— Situated in the happy medium between the inane (Ohl of the northern winters and the exhausting heat of the F l ollthern summers, she has a climate where more labor eau be done with less fatigue than anywhere else on the Westevi conti nent, and where the human titatiou itut is consegneliMy developed in fuller ma.- tsrity of -nerve and mind.

The people of Pennsylvania were meant to be .worthy of the favored region they inhabit. They derive their lineage front the purest sources of all that is great in modern civilization._ The impalsive ardor of the Irish—the steady perseverance of the English— the Witty caution of the Scotch—all these mingle gracefully with the solid sense, patient industry, and immovable honesty of the German character, which forms the broad basis of the whole. They have ever been the first to see a great political trath--and seein: , it, they stand by it with unshaken fidel ity, in spite of all appeals to their pas. • ions or their temporary \ interests. These qualities tit them well tishe what they always have been, the arbitrators between the impetuousity of the South, and the superstitions which prevail itt many parts of New England. With 'such a population, and with such a soil, climate and productions, the State needs nothing but a Govern ment tolerably well administered, to make her•the envy and admiration of the world. It is `surprising that such is not stlways the ease. But the recent legislation, like that which humbled and disgraced Us twenty-one years a ! so, must, if carried out, paralyze the pithlie prosperity for a long time to conic. All good citizens will submit without a murmur to the Saxes which are pores. nary to sustain the Government, or pay aii r honest debt ; but, it is a grievous hardship that honest labor should be robbed of the ' , bread it earns, in order to increase the Superfluity of men whose eyes Already atand out with fatness. 1 um most trul}}• yours, J.

The Harrisburg convention has pre sented to the pi. , ople candidates every way worthy of support. I speak from personal knowledge when I say that General Packer is a wine, experienced, energetic and discreet statesman. It is satZi to say that his administration will bo pure, his poliey sound; that, supporteil by a legislative majority, of Democrats, corruption will be driven from the (;apical, and the wages of ini g itit 3 - will cease to be paid by pub lic plunder. Mr. Strickland was appointed an As sociate Judge by Governer Shunk, one or the parttst patriots that Pennsylvania ever produced. I was present Ivhen this appointment was discussed and de termined, and well recollect that fear leas integrity was the element of all oth ers in his excellent character which do eided the case.

It breaks down the harriers raised by tyranny, and fraternizes eitizens so that they become 11ne great national family, full ()Clove tied hope. In doing this it eommands ns to sac rifice our personal preferences, to lay all minor differences on the altar of our country's greatness, to stly--"eecry- Ming for the party—n(4laq for t a rn." No num is a trite Dettnierat who will oppose the party. Ile who fails to give hearty sopport to the (.101414i:ices when once nominated, wages intestine war, and id a traitor more dangerous than 311 avowed enemy. It is by absolute and effeetivo onion tlw party candidatLsc. that Pennsylvania has so often shone conspicuous in the constellation of Re publican sovereignties. This was the means by which she made Jeiferson President and discarded British infla olive, by which she made Jackson Pro idrnt and purged the country of usurp ers, by whieb she made Buell:man Pres ident and saved the Constitution. Be it ours, inv . fellow-citizens, our labors in the common contest, to pre- serve the purity of our principles, to tWetle,, our State front bondage, to (10101141 our free Constitut ion,' to elevate still higher the, Democratic faiith, whieh is the glory of this country awl the hope of humanity throughout the world. God to our keeping has eommitted the sacred flame of liberty. Let us be true to our trust that our path through life may be illuminated by its rays, that our children may possess the heritage of freedom, that the Nations may re joice in the light and Itle of _Democratic truth. Impressed with these solemn eon s i erations, halm) which all present per sonalities sink into insig•nificanee, let us go to our respective homes, and endeav or to ditlnse, in all parts of our country, the high political morality or a party, pure in its origin, action, sentiments and tendencies. Let us cultivate the spirit of eontord among ourselves, and of charity towards our opponents. Lot reason reign, and truth will be in vincible. Grand Trial of .31nring .Thiehines—The .11anny Machine Virturious. STRACVSK, N.

Upwards of twenty machines' were en tered, and the display at starting was very fine. All did well, but it was ham apparent that the real contest was between the Manny with Wood's im provement and the het chum machines. 'l'he struggle was close, the Manny coming in slightly ahead. This result was hailed with cheers by the multitude, in which the friends of the Ketchum in:whine heartily joined. The fact of rapidity of work, however, does not de termine the question of superiority. The other tests will ho made during the week. The weather is fine and mil the contAxitants in good spirits.
