Friends.
We tell the Democrats • who reside
in the %nth Mountain, as well as along
ita base, in Hainiltosban, Franklin, Me
widen, Tyrone and Huntington town
ships, that it is upon them mainly that
the Know ;Nothing and Blank Republi
can candidates are now working, with
she hope of hirmbuggiig and deceiv
ing enough into their support in those
districts to secure their election.
It is boasted here by the "Molly Ma
guire." of the Star and their mouth
pieces, that inroads into the Democrat
ic ranks will be made in "the 1 / 1 01111•
kilo" by John Musselman, James A.
Thompson and John Scott, presuming,
of course, that the residents of that
range are so ignorant and simple as to
be easily GULLED by the smooth
tongues of these candidates when in
the search of votes. But we say to the
" Nantes" and their candidates, that
they are mistaken. The voters whom
they expect to be so easily deceived are
not as shallow vi they think them, and
are fixed in their Democratic princi
ples.
These voters know that they are un
der no obligations to vote for M ussel man,
Thompson and Scott,—any more than
they are to vote for any other Know
Nothing and Black Republican candi
dates. They know, too, that the Demo-
cratic ticket is a first-rate one—can't
be beat in merit or qtuthfication—and .
being so posted, they will be &and
standing up Fur their men. and princi
ples, just as they did before the pres
ent Knots Nothing ticket was nomina
ted. •

* brief reign of one year In New' York,
l and the result upon that Stew is now

facts that the State is bankrupt; that
its credit is exhausted ; that its Public
Works are again to be stopped ; and
that its taxes aye ineeessing beyond pre.

for the same purpose. The, have

are fighting under cover of this worn
out humbug for the mastery of Penn
sylvania. The affairs of Kansas are
possessed of no interest to this hand of
men, save as they afford means where
by power is to be placed in their hands.
This feet is plainly apparent in the
State of New York. What have they
-done, what could they do for Kansas,
but lend their aid to continue the agita
tion of the vexed question of Slavery in
this new territory, mod thus prevent
settlers from emigrating to that locali
ty t This consummation is of no bene.
fit to the people of New York, while it
is a curse to the prospects of Kansas,
and so it is recognized at the present
time by the solid, sensible men of all
parties there.
But (remarks the Peansylvanian,) the
use made of the local power placed in
the hands of the New York freedom
shriakers comes near home, and all men
can see how they have exercised that.
While the eyes of their followers have
been closed by artful appeals to their
passions and prejudices, the men in pow
er have plunged their arms into the
coffers of the State, and beggared the
exchequer. Credit is gone—taxes are
increased to a ruinous extent—the poor
laboring men on the public works are
robbed of their hard earnings, and all
this to enrich a few politicians who
claim all the honesty, decency and pur
ity in the country, and in whose praise
the pulpits of the land have been made
vocal.
The tax payers of Pennsylvania
should look it these facts at this time,
when the same class of Black Republi
can plunderers are clamoring fora hold
upon the resources of this State. They
have tasted blood in New York, and
like tigers whose appetites once whet
ted become insatiable, these men have
invaded the old Keystone and threaten
to wrest the sceptre from the hands of
the Democratic party. Kansas is the
watch-word--bat plunder is the real
rearpoee of the liivail;ng army. To
beat bear this band of Vandals, is the
duty of every man, no matter what his
political opinions,
c 7lio loves the fume
of this old Cemmeawealth, and values
its credit and reputation at home and
abroad. The Democratic party is
pledged to an economical administra
tion of the State government, and the
man placed upon the ticket for Govern

faithfully carried out. Let every man
then, who is in favor of preserving the
credit of the State, vote for WILLIAM

' John Musseinian is again before the
people of Adams county, asking at their
Binds a re-election to the Legislature.
Don he, Tax-payers, deserve each
mark of approbation
Let us reason the matter. You are
solicited to vote for him, (not that he
lies the capacity to be of any service
there, except to vote, but) in order that
he May pat money into his pocket, at
the rite of 8747 80 per session.
- What did: he do, Tax-payers, when
4a the lion* last winter ? He voted
to Repeat the Toanage Tax upon the
Central Railroad—by which, had the
-saevannent been successful, nearly
THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND
DOLLARS A YEAR would have been
kept out of the State Treasury, to be
made up from the pockets of the Tax
payer* of every county—ADAMS, of
course, among them. He voted to re
lease THE PROPERTY of said Mam
moth Corporation from taiation, de
priving the State Treasury annually of
many, many thousands more ; and this
whilst you, all of yon, Tax-payers, are
compelled every year to contribute to
wards the support of the State Govern
ment, accordingly as you may possess
property ! Ile voted to give THREE
MILLIONS of tho seven and a half
millions to be realized out of the Sale of
the Main Line, to prop up the credit of
the Sunbury and Erie Railroad Compa
ny, and thus to that extent to prevent
the lowering of the State debt !
These are unquestionable FACTS.
There is no denying them, or either
of them; nor can they boitlerrl7ll).

-A s.il:os
ftollutriag biographical nod% is ,
extraatieiCrom an address delivered b.
fore a literary society, at the William*
port Academy, by Andrew J. Little,
Esq., in February, 1847. We need
hardly say, that the poor boy therein'
referred to, is now the Democratic can
didate for Governor of this Common
wealth, Gee. WI &Lt.& x F. PALOICILL—
May the youths of the present day, take
courage Prom his example, to press for
ward to the goal of distinction, despis
ing alike the misfortunes of poverty or
the want of influential friends :
" In 1807, resided a poor family, near
the Bald Eagle mountain, some fifty
miles above this place. They had not
the means of giving their children the
advantages of an education. Th rough
industry and perseverance they barely
obtained suilleient means to secure a
oornfOrtable sustenance. In 1814, the
head of that humble bat interesting
family, paid the tribute of mortality,
and left a- widow with five small chil
dren, dependent upon her fbr a liveli
hood.
Ooe of her sons at She tender age of
twelve years, having an extensive fond- 4
ness for reading, came to the conclusion
to be a printer; and resolved to go and
learn that trade, and relieve his mother
from the care and protection °forte who
thought himself at that early age, capa
ble of taking care of hinuielf. He ties .
I n
up a little bundle of clothes d puts
them under his arm—bitie hi e' other
an a ff ectionate fitreweli, and its oa

foot to Sunbury—is diskince ' some
sixty or seventy miles—in the ld and
dreary season of winter. Ho paws
through Williiunsport, with h little
bundle and only fi ft y cents in pock
et. lie arrives at Sunbury d pro
cures a situation in a printin office,
continues eleven months, when by the
defeat of Governor Findley, the pro
prietor of that paper thought proper to
discontinue it, and our young lad, find-
Int; no other situation, retnrned-home.
The next fall be took a job of cutting
cord-wood for Roland Curtin's iron
works, at thirty-three ciente a cord, and
through that winter, which was a se
vere one, ho continued wading in snow
knee-deep, until lie had out over fifty
curds of wood—then only between four
teen and fifteen years of ago. In 1823
he again went into a printing-office, and
remained until 1825, having served a
regular apprenticeship; he then again
shouldered his knapsack and set out
for employment as a journeyman prin
ter, in the direction of Harrisburg. On
arriving at the capitol, he was employ
ed by the State printer, and there
earned and purchased the first suit of
broadcloth clothes and the first pair of
boots he ever wore. lie continued in
Harrisburg two years, and then came
to Williamsport and purchased one-half
of the Lyeosking Gazdte, and two years
after, the other half.
in ifti, we find ouryoung friend
Superintendent of the West Branch Canal,
which office be hold for three years,
during which time he paid oat more' i
than ono and a half millions of dollars;
in 1839, appointed Canal anantissenser;
and in 1642, Auditor General of the
State of Pennsylvania.
The boy that oncepassed' through
this place, with. his little bundle of
elo• hes on his erm and only fifty cents
in his pocket, is now a distinguished
statesman, an eminent speaker, and it
worthy citizen of your own town--an
example of persevering industry and
personal exertion worthy of imitation.
He is yet young and full of his youth
ful energy, and his star is still in the
ascendant.
'Honor and fame from no anndititm rise,
Axis well your part. there all therbonor lies:"
Boaz in Kind!
That the Sanlmry and Erie Railroad
measure was for weeks before the
House, last winter, and that several
votes upon it, in one shape or othel.,.
were dodged by Mr. Musselman.
BEAR IN MIND, that Mr. Mussel.
man voted for the hill on two occasions !
—and for the very beet authority in
proof of this assertion we refer to the
House Journal, pages 884 and 889.
The obnoxious three million clause
was defeated in the Senate, but fin that

ceeded. They always do seemed in
the lying line, and needn't try hard ;
but such is especially the case now,
when theprospect of total defeat canoes
them to be unusually reckless.
This number of the Compiler will be
printed on Friday afternoon, the regu
lar time for the issuing of the Star, and
we will therefore not be able, for want
of time, to contradict and show up to
public disgust the low falsehoods which
disappointed and mortified Dark Lan
tern politicians can invent. And these
tricksters knowing oar custom to print
on Friday before a GiOneral Election, no
doubt will lie the more boldlyon account

Every Democrat should vote early,

is a six-scathe ssaidence which is ao tie
exacted; which is, in effect, a die
franchisement of more than half the
bona fide inhabitants of Kansas, and
nearly two-thirds of the free-State men.
—N. Y. Tnberse.
We would like to know what will
satisfy the Kansas &briskets. They
have always claimed that the free 13tatr
men were largely in the majority.—
Sometimes they claimed two-thirds,
sometimes three fourths, and sometimes
they went as high as nine-teethe—a/-
ways xlarge majority. They pretend
ed that they conki carry almost every
election district in the territory, if only
the bloody "Border Billaus" were
kept out. Bat they eoutp/ained that
the Miseourians came over a few days
before the election, and were premitted
to vote on the strength of this brief re-
sidence in the torritoty.
The ahriek a changed now. It Is
'apposed that the Constitutional Con
ventionA in accordance with the sugges
tion of Qov. `Airman, will require vot
ers to have.reeided throe or six months,
in tae :,territory. Gaxxurr's latest;
shriek axes the residence at six months,
which is, he says, "in effect, a dis-,
franehisemext of more than half the
bean. Ads inhabitants of Kansas, and
nearly two- thisaof the free State men."
Let ne stop GIIELLZY'S shriek-pipe
j with hisown facto. If nearly two-thirds,
of the tree State men would be cat off
from the ballot boxes by a. law require. ;
ing voters in October to have resided six
months• in the territory, it follows that
nearly two-thirds of the free State men
must have gone into the territory since
the first of April. If this is true, what
becomes of the boasted strength of the
" freedom shriekers" in Kansas prior
to April last? They must have been in
a minority; and if they were, then they
lied outrageously in asserting that they
were defeated at the polls by fraud and
violence.
In lodging his complaint against what
he supposes the Constitutional Conven.
tion will require of voters, GREELEY
knocks down the platform on which he
and his party have been standing for
two or three years past, and admits
that the cry of fraud in Kansas was a
humbug. He , admits, in effect, that his
party were in a minority there, and that
the "Bogus Legislature," as they term
it, was backed by a majority of the in
habitants of Kansas. We did not ex
pect this admission from Gazatxx, and
probably he did not intend to make it,
but the' truth will slip out of the great
est liar sometimes.
Look at the awkward prbilicament
in whieh GREILEY is placed by his ob
jection to a previous residence of six
months as a qualification for voting.—
Ile and hie party
,charged that at the
election for members of the "Bogus
Legislattire," as they term it, men who
weTc not residents of the territory, bat
WhO lived in Missouri, went over to
Kansas a short time 'riot to the election
and voted. This was their great charge,
the . burden of their long and piercing
siiiick,',that the Missourians invaded
the 'territory And voted for members of
the Territorial Legislature. Now sup
pose nil i . vistb hid been permitted to vote
for Oieitibers lb? that Legislature who
had' not resided in the territory for six
months, would not that 'have protected
the actual sealers Prom the interference
or* lffiSseutianis?" And ifs six monthi
law would bare effected so great a good
at that time, would it not work equally
well now ?
The best plrt of our article remains
to be 'Written, and we can write it in a
towlines. GUILIT objects to the mak
ing oti "six' months residence" quell
&atoll by the Constitutional Conven
tion, and yetlgoes his whole length ftit
the Topeka elcoctsdtutiott, which 001111tefit

fug it would be to find something akin

Looking Bine
The Opposition Managers are "out of
heart," and begin to look blue. They'
placed Mr. Musselman at the head t or
their ticket tinder the supposition that
Ae couldn't be boat ; but now the people
are finding out ail about his Legislative
course, and are talking dant it in Mali*
manner as to leave no reasonable (pound
for hope even for kin.
Then, too, he has made several at
tempts to be "sharp" in his electioneer
ing tours through the county, and, of
course, has almost *soften failed. Next
time he goes to Freedom township on
a vote trading expedition, we would acl
vise one of the borough Managers to as
him, and act the part of
prompter. That financial arrangement
at Heidlersburg might also have been
managed by lees bungling hands.—
Probably two dollars more would make
the matter all right
These things cause the Managers to
be troubled; and well they may.

follows :
President, BAiNIY &mum.
Vice Presidents, Isaac Robinson,AartS.

John S. Rubinson, Esq., of MeCon
nellsburg, who happened to be on a
visit to Fairfield at the Lilo), was called
out, and responded is as able speech,
which was or mums well received.—
Jesse D. Nesitnati wed addressed , tbe
meeting, and was flugnently applandixi.
H. J. Stable concluded, referring more *:
particularly to county polities. When
he began, With the Journal in his band,to
expose the votes of Mr. M usselnui n in.tbe
Legislature on the Repeal of the Tonnage
Tax, and the Release of the Property of
the Central Railroad Company from State
Tax, there. was considerable nneasinrs
exhibited by the friends of that gentle
man on the outskirts of the crowd ; and
when. the speaker referred to his votes
to gift the Atin4ry and Erie Railroad
Company the benefit of THREE sny:
LIONS of the State's money to bolster
up its credit, they were fairly in a buzz.
An effbrt was made •to intimidate
the speaker. Bat that wout.trn'r wonx.
Truth, Ilkti molder, WILL OUT I
and if the truth in regard to Mr. Mas
sel man's votes is not palatable to him or,
his friendi, he has no cob to blame for
it but himself. He, as the Representa

of Adams county, east tbeseiokinox-'
ions votes,—there's no getting over
that,--and he can never expect tb
cape the damaging responsibility so in
curred. The PROOF IS POSITIVE
