that in nil the local 'elections they act as one

the Nth:ming basis and understanding, via:—
That it said 'electoral ticket should be elected

should appear that said vote Would not elect
Messrs. Douglas and Johnson, but would elect

A High-hiadAld Move.
Richard J. Haldeman, of Harrieburg,
a member of one of the Democratic
National Committees, quartered at
Washington pity, has (Forney-like)
issued his protest against the concilia
tory action of the Democratic State
Central Committee, and at the Panic
time a call for a Mass and Delet.tate
Convention at Harrisburg on the 26th
inst., with n view, as is generally sup
posed, to get not distinct Douglas Elec
toral Ticket in this State. The con
summation of such a step, in opposition
to the regular ticket formed by the
Reading Convention, can only tend to
assist the Lincolnites, by dividing the
Democratic vote—and against such di
vision every Democrat, whether tie
prefer Douglas or Breckenridge, should
ut once, and without hebitatiun, act his
face.
i In speaking of Heldeman's course,
1 the Harrisburg P , ltnut at Unim bays :
It is, perhaps, the eery best thing that
could have hrippmed to the Democracy of the
Stateoand for the plan of compromise agreed
upon by the State Committee, that the bolt
[ers should l o ots determined to plaoe them
selves in the attitude of an organized rebel
lion against the only regular State orgauisa
tiun of the party. The question now comes
home directly to the Democracy of Pennsyl
%Hula whether they will allow a foreign
power, not of their creation, an which they
hare conferred no authority, to interfere in
our State politics, and crush out our State or
ganizati - In other word., has the authori
tyk of our organism' n departed, and be
come cen ised at Waahingtou ? Are we no
longer u , masters? Are we incompe
tent to mallee our own domestic affairs. and
has the (nee proud Democracy of Pennsylva
nin.become subject to the will and direction
of one .man, [Richard J. Haldeman I) who
acts under the direction of a Washington
Committee. without ever having been invest
ed with antherialfrom the Democracy of the
State? This is a envious issue, affecting the
very existence of independent State organiza
tions. We cannot doubt that the Democracy
of the State will vindicate their right and
power to ninnage their own affairs through
their own orgaiosation.
It Mill be observed that Mr. Ilahleman,
acting for the National Committee, at one
blow annihilates the State organization of the
Democratic party, when lie speaks of the ab
sence of any State organization competent to
sunimon a Slate Convention. No Democrat
' ever before questioned the power of the State
Committee to call a State Convention. Not
only has it that power, but inis the only me
dium through which a regular Convention
can be called. Any other Convention assem
bled in the name of the party is irregular and
unauthorised—a voluntary tursemirMge, a
mass meeting. This is the description of tri
bunal which is to be convened at this place
on the 26th host., to act in the name of the
party. this in d efiance of regularity an re-:
cedent (tfithout the Convention ofril,l
1859, is regarded as a safe precedent.) tis
not only irreollarly eontened, but It does not i
pretend to be a delegete Convention. but is a
ridiculous jumble of members of the State
Committee, delegates to Baltimore, delegates
to Reading, and whoever else may cheese ni l
wench Of course the Democracy of Penn- 1
sylvania cannot recognize suet au assembly. *
We take this occasion to warn those uho ,
might otherwise be entrapped into this disor-
ganizing movement, of Om inevitable tete of I
rebels against the Democratic party. They i
commence as purifiers and finally land in !
the ranks of the Opposition. Where are now I
the active leaders of the Convention, which I
met at the Capitol in obedience to the call ofi
'urney, in the month of April, 11(591 They :
aseembleil with the purest professions. They 1
declared that their only object was to cleanse
the party, and to assert its principles, against
centralised despotism at Waahington. On
that memorable ooension John W. Forney
was an active leader, and now he is a Repub
lican office-holder, and the editor oh a Repuloi
bean newspaper. John Ilickmae pronounced
a well studied speech, overflowing with the
most refiued Democracy, and he is now an
open supporter of Lincoln and Curtin. Oth
ers have gone over openly or secretly to the
enemy, some are now, engaged in this new
plot of treason, having a relish fee the busi
ness, and others again are rapidly treading
the highway leading to Republicanism. It is
an impressive truth.—amid a warning full of '
meaning at this particular time.
That sterling Democratio journal, the Lan
caster Intelligencer, denounces this plot of
Forney's in deservedly severe terms, and
then appeals to the feelings of every Demo
crat—thus :

We now urge our Democratic friends to

and give the State over to the Republicans.—
We speak now to Douglas Democrats especi
ally; for it is to Douglas men that the appeal
for a separate organization has gone eon
Sacrifice the Democratic party; break down
its ascendency in Pennsylvania; cripple and
blast its rising strength In Lancaster county;
sacrifice all that we are and all that we hope
to be; such is the word that has goon out

his teachings And fur what? Simply, be

"On the nominations which here been made
and still are to be made, within the local
Democratic organizauua of the State, the
members of the party have no difference of
opinion. As one roan they desire that Pens
aylvania shall enroll herself for the Democra
cy. We believe that the will do so if the
issues of the Presidential difficulty are not
precipitated upon us by too hasty action. II
is sot desirable at thepresent time that Me Na

cide anything

by which union and harmony may be recar-d.-

tion, the Post says :
" We urge upon the friends of Mr. Douglas
throughout the State to pay no attention
sslinteser to the cull ut Mr. Haldeman. It
gives us no time fur deliberation or consider
ation. In Mr. Ilaldeman's own words, it ie
founded upon 'the revolutionary character
of the political epoch.' 11 by should the
strength of our organization, for which we
have fought so long, be revolutionized now? •
"If the friends oillMr. Douglue are ts i-e,
they will make no response to the call for Mr. I
Maldemen'e Convention. Tu quote hie own '

"The people are nut p,•epereti to adjust

Union is Success
Tho followers of Lincoln know their'
weakness, and ext,ei,t to elect hint eilly
through division in the Democratic i
party. Tho trembling anxiety of the
Opposition editors, lest union might
prevail among the Democracy, is sig a if l .
cant of this fact—and we are quite wil
ling that the Star and Sentinel shall be 1
taken as examples in the premises. A'
cotemporstry well remai ks :
The deadness that, followed tho sub
stitution of a rail-splitter fir a states- ;
man struck a deathehill to the hopes of '
the Republicans, and they begun to re
gard the field as lost, until the dissen
sion in the ranks of the Democratic party
revived hope. Cons' ious of their lea-
bility to %piper by the force of princi
ples and mason they hope to profit by
the accident of division, find to elect a
RepubliemiTWeident by a small minori
ty of the people. A movement on the
part, ot the Democracy to heal this
breach is followed by the uso of every
upgiiilhce at the command ot the Repub
licans to widen and deepen it. ihride
and tongues is their motto. Ours should
be, UNLTLD AND WIN. Every motive s
that induces the enemies ofDeinocruey,'
to assist division should ergo its friends
to promote union. The truth should be
made to stand out prominently and
clearly before every foe of sectional
Le
publicanism, that that party cannot sue- 1
coed except through a division of the
Democratic party. The Republicans
know their position—they feel the alma
lute necessity of dividing tho Democra
,
cy—they understand their weakness!
and appreciate that Lincoln's nomina
tion is a miserable failure—and know.
ing these truths they net upon their,
knowledge like sa, ,, acioue men. They I
labor to keep the 'Democracy apart.—
Their allies on the outskirts of the
. Democratic party—their own purclia-:
bed pioperty, paid fur and owned by I
them—assist them by many wily arts.
,
Will Democrats allow them to succeed, i
and by inaction or passion play into'
. their hands r Will Democrats not rat- I
titer act upon the ovorrulirg necessity
.of the case, and rescue the State from ,
the domination of the Republican int
nority ? The choice is between union ;
and victory and division and defeat.

The troth is no longer to be concealed that
the nomination of the Abolitionist Lincoln does
not "go down" in the Empire State, and the
knowledge of that tact, coupled with the defec

A G. Green offered as a sulstitute a Mo
tion endorsing Douglas and Johnson. After
discussion by Messrs. Green, liagenman, and
Getz, the substitute was voted down by a
large majority, and the original resolution,
sustaining the action of the State Central
Committee, adopted with but one dissenting
voice. Mr. Green and three or four others,
sympathizers of Forney's, then withdrew
from the Club. Gen. George M. Kern nod
others made excellent speeches, nod n high
state of enthusiasm prevailed. The Gazcite,
in speaking of the meeting, remarks :•
The feeling of the meeting wits so nearly
unanimous in favor the single object for

After such an unbiased expression of opinion,
*ere*ere Can be t,O mistaking the o h
true Democrats of this city. 11 Nether
Breckinridge or Douglas men, they lire for
the preservation of our State org,initation,
and for united action against the Blui„k Re

the Governor, tecause they hon,ir and esteem
him, and confide in his honesty and capacity ;
and they want to hsive the electoral vote of
Pennsylvania cast for that Democrwtie candi•
date who can beat Lincoln. This, we know,
is the position of the friends ut Mr. Breckin•
ridge ; and it IS also that of the real friends

Douglas men, who follow Forney's leud, are
the only dissatisfied party; and when N e re

hardly to be expected that they would now

will undake to place other names upon the'

to unite fragments of a brukeu and ilheseverod
party.
But *bile it cannot be successfully estebe,
lished that the Couimittse t acceded, in the
slightest degree, its legitimate powers on the
2 1 instant, I freely admit that its reccolumen•
dation is entirely new, and is calculated to
awaken the deepest Interest at ti retlectioll iu
the public mind. lON necessterly not el, be
cause the actual position of the beinui..ratle:
party, at the present time, is tutally dittereut
front its condition in any precious portion of
its history. Two National organizations,
"like the twin children of Rebecca, are strug
gling for the rights of the elder horn." A
large majority of the Democratic magma,
firmly wedded to their party, regard this beisin
with unutterable regret. Those masses ere
eery far from agreeing with you, in Reseal
ing that the only Democratic caudidate fur tho
I'resideocy is the gentleman whom you pre
fer. Tens of thousands of them are, to say
the least, quite as much inclined to respect;
the nomination made by "a meeting uf gentle-,
men et the Maryland Institute, iu Baltimore,"
as they are to support that tit "a meeting of '
gentlemen," at the Front Street Theatre, iu
the same city. I du not propose to discuss
the relative merits of these nominations in
this letter ; but the fact is patent to every one,
i that there is, unfurtunetely, a great diversity,
of opinion as wthis point. 'This ditersity
of opinion cannot be ignored—the division:
I I clearly exists—and while the respective ad•
hereats of the eerkiwal ••meetiugs of gentle

as to their choice of Presidential candidates,
there Is one point, 1 am happy to say, in ref-1
erenee to which they do wimpy ft common •

course, army themselves against this fnir and
' eltiltable measure of compromise—while
timasswho honestly desire the triumph of the
Democratic party, without refercitee to mere,
men, will give their cordial adhesion to the
action of the State Committee. 1 indulge the
hope that more mature reflection will induce'
you, like Martha of old, to "chuose the bet

If the proposition has not the color of pre
cedent to recommend it to 3 - our favor, it is
well for you to know that those who made it,

past: we have nuts' to du with precedents;
we hon ., not hi ng e with roles; we are to
legislate upon at condition of things that has
arisen since thii room was opened for our re
ception." To this earnest appeal the Cen
vention responded Amen I—and the past, with
its crowd of witnesses in behalf of "usage,"
was ignored, and the representatives of the
people, swayed by the popular impulse, fol
lowed the Genialiele of a new and resolution
nry faith. Speakiug fur yourself and your
companions, you boldly proclaimed to those
who differed with yuu :—'• If you want our

Tu the Hu.N. Rictus o l'Aux, Elector at
Large.
Hon. Henry D. Fbster and the Phila
delphia "Press."
The Philadelphia Frew ut Monday last con
tains another subtle attack from Forney upon
lion. Henry D. Ftieteir, the Democratic "Janiii
date fur Uorerner of this State. The P.m;
has heretofore affected to support Mr. Foster,
but it is now trident that his defeat is part
of tie price to be paid by Forney to his Re
publican masters, fir the Clerkship of the
House of Representatives. From this day
furward all the influence of the Press ruisj be
counted egninst Mr. Foster—perhaps not
openly, but in that sly, regretful, tearful way
that the honest of th Preys knows how
to assume when he wishes to strike the must
deadly blow. 1% bile the bold nature of Hick
man scorns dis,;trise, arid lie appe ire openly
for Curtin, his rood friend Forney pursues
a different path to the same end, by appear
ing a friend, that he mny enact more effectu
airy the part of an enemy.
It is nut a difficult matter to account for the
course of the !hers towards Mr. Foster. His
ni.mination has been received with unusual
tavur, and even in the distracted condition of
the Democratic party, created general enthu
siasm. Divided 111 other particulars, the par
ty cordially united unon him. This state of
affairs has caused considerable alarm among
the supporters of Mk. Cur tin, who dread the
result of a spotest with the united Democra
cy, under the lend of such it man as Henry
L. Fulter. The Republican Stite Committee
assembled the other day at Cresson, and, up
on comparing notes, discovered the imminent
peril of their candidate for Governor. Hav
ing operated, througu the agency of Forney
and other men of that political character, •
bound to obey their commands, so cur to widen'
the dissensions of the Democracy upua the
Presidential questiuu, the Committee deter
mined that the same appliance must be used
with reference to the candidate fur Governor,
in order to save Curtin from defeat. As
swiftly as effect follows cause, we find that
John Hickman is pnrenaded to lend his info-i
once openly in behalf of Cultic], and that;
Forney commences his secret work to damage!
Henry D. Foster. The Press calls upon Mi.
Foster to choose defeat, and to sacrifice him-i
self and the Democratic party for the advan
tage of the Republicans ; and he is threateo
ecl (of course with many tears of regret) that
if he does not ohoose defeat, under the "Doug
las Popular Sovereignty flag." he shall be de-1
fatted under the proposition of the State
Committee- Of course Mr. Foster will treat'
the commands and threats of the mon who is
now enpying the fruits of successful treach
ery, with that contempt that an honest and
true man always roost feel for a venial and
treacherous one. Of course, as a true Demo- I
eras, he will not attach himself td a faction,
and least of all, a faction led by the Republi
can V.lerk of the house. As the candidate of
t„i te un it e d D ettko u ra cy, he will unquesicingibly
do all in hie power to preserve the harmony
inaugurated at Reading, cud if be muss fall I
by the bands of traitors, be will fall battling!
for the whole Democratic party.
Mr. Feeney shows that he hae tint toficieee
Mr. luster for the supp o s e d stem , h e h a d
in his defeat for United States &eater. The
light, almost jocose way in which he refer.
tu this select, does not cover tho motive that
suggested it. lie is obotrt to satiety his long
hoarded retenge. lie factiously cells M r .
Footer's agency in his defeat "an net of per.
sonal friendship," and gives as the reason
"because if the Senatorial toga had fallen op
en us, we should not probably have had the
opportunity of taking so effectire a stand
against the Administration or Mr. Buchan
an." Who that knows Forney does not know
that if he had been elected Senator he wauld
hate been the most obsequious supporter of
Mr. Bucluthan's Administration in that bode.
Some of our readers perhaps remember the
scene in the parlor of Buehler's Hotel, at
Harrisburg, on the night that Mr. Forney
receit ed the causes nomination fur Senstor.i.-•
There, surrounded by friends who paid court
to the favorite of a new Administration, while
the corks pupped and the exhilterating liquid
passed iron hatttl tu hand, Mr. Forney made
glowing speech. Ile ascribed his elevation
entirely to Mr. Buchanan. Everything that
he was, or expected to be, was due to him.—
Mr. Buchanan was the blight star who had
illuminated his pathway. And after indulg
'
! ing in the most fulsome adulation, in a Mini
! lar strain, he wound up by the abject decla
ration—that this mark of favor and confidence
had been conferred upon him, not for merits.
of his own, but because dlr. Buchanan permit
ted it. Many Democrats who were present,
end who were disgusted at Furney's tudyietn,
will recollect the terms of this humble pros
tration—and not one of them doubts that had
be attained the of of his ambition, thro'
the mistaken confidence of his patron, the
sane humble subserviency would have char
acterised his Senatorial career. The disap
pointment soured his temper. lie begged
fur patronage and failed. 'lien it was that
ho detertqlned to take his wares to another
market, and commenced the course of treach
ery tu the Democratic - party which finally se
cured compenantion front the Republican
party in the lucrative office of Cler of the
House.
Whether the opposition of the Pros to Mr.
Foster is part of the price for favors already
conferred, or the foundation fur new claims
upon the Republican party. time will show.
In either event, its poljcy is now to divide the
Democratic part) and defeat its cantlidates.-.-
