Let No WHIG allow hitnself to be absent from
dip:oldies the day of Election.
Before another issue of our paper the Bth of Oc
tober comes, and the important questions involved
idthe topscut contest will have been decided. Thd
ViglitTiehieh the citizen is called upon to exercise on
the.day of election is of the greatest magrutude,
and he is fearfully responsible. A single vote may

Few we fear , realize, to its full extent, the solemn
obligations devolving co them iu faithfully discharg
ing this highest of all duties, and sacred to they free
men of oar country. In view of the mighty \ con
seqUenci* which must follow the election, ana its
important bearing upon the interests, the business
and labor of community, we feel it a duty to call
oa every voter to reflect well upon the position he
occupies, and tile effect his action at the polls will
haVe upon the interests of the Country he in part
represents, and whose destiny heir now attempting
to gape.
- Important are the issues of the contest and vast
the interests depending on the result of this elec
tion. Our work-shops and markets are closed, bus
iness and labor is crippled by the effects of a Tariff
act, which benefits nobody but British aristocracy
and foreign capitalists—an at of which Sir Henry
Bulwer,
_Her Britanic Majesty's Minister to this
country protests against any altfration.

years ago, Free soil resolutions. Well, that is

The Will of the People.
Democratic usage has established in this county
and district, the caucus system as the proper mode
of ascertaining the will of the people,—that is, that
nominations should be made by conferees dele,,,,,at
ed with authority by the county convention, these
conventions deriving 'heir authority from • series
of primary township meetings. Against this meth
od we have nothing to say. When it is uncorrupt
ed it is a proper channel thiangh which to ascertain
the real wishes of the electors. But the abuses of
this system are grievous wrongs upon popular
rights. Against these we shall always set our faces.
Yet the system itself can not now be a subject of
comment, nor even is the subject of this article an
abuse of it. The last nomination for Congress in
this district was not made by the intervention of
the usual primary meetings required by the caucus
system, nor was it changed to suit the wishes of
few by any abuse of that system. It mss made
indirect violation'of that republican principle which
originates and js at the foundation of the caucus
system. It yais made by five men. The two of those
five who assumed to represent this county in that
memorable body were office holders, among the bit
terest enemies of Mr. Wilmot, men interested in the
proper distribution of - offices, captains in the army
of Hunkerdom, anxious to - kill Wilmot because be
was a free seller, and was interfering with the ar
rangements that they noshed to have tiodisturbed.
These men assumed authority which was of right
in the people. They had been once appointed for
a particular purpose, that bad been accomplished,
and the same argument that would give it to them
for a week longer would appoint them for life,
would make the confereeship perpetual,hereditary.
They met with this autharitar.then. >h tbsor„,..balk.
been conferees before. In regard to the new nom-,
'nation, none .but " leaders " were consulted. Did
the Democrats of Dimock, of Jackson, of Harford
and of Silver Lake, know anything of this while
the leaders were in close conclave all night of Sat
urdoy and all day of Sunday at Hatch's I Did
those men, who constitute the 2500 democrats of
Susquehanna, dream on Saturday night, that dur- I
ing the morrow a compromise would be made by
which Mr. Lowrey would leave the post to which;
they had assigned him I Did the Free-Soil Demo-1
outs of Bridgewater, of Rush, of Brooklyn and
Middletown think on the 22d of September, that,
on that Sabbath an effort, was being made to;
strike down Wilmot the standard - bearer of their!
choice! None of them thought of such things. Thei
Democrats were not consulted before. the arrange-1
meat was made. A clique took counsel with itself
and made it I _
the " ratification (I) meetirTi, " how, onSaturday7
last, was the new ticket submitted to the people t
Not at ail. Mr. Wilmot made a splendid Free-i
Soil speech. John Van Buren proved that Wilmot
was the only Man who ought to represent this disJ,
trict, Mr. Grow asked their vote because he wa
the party candidate. That was all. At The Tcii
wanda ratification meeeting, a motion wasrmade to
ascertain by vote of the Democrats present wheth-i
er the nomination of G. A. Grow emanated from!
the people: After a number of speeches irywhich
Mr. Wilmots friends took strong grounds against',
the new arrangements, on call for the question tbei
chiiirinan ) a Hunker, refused to entertain the me.l,
tine, refused to put it to vote, and the meeting ad 4
primed, scores of Democrats saying: " We will:
have a vote—we'll vote on the Bth—we'll' vote for
Adams." These are facts that -we have from a
person who was present, at the meeting. They
dare not submit the nomination to any meeting of
respectable size I They rely upon party 'tines td
support the nomination. Already have they corn.,

mum crnaper - e are upon this eve of
of another iniportant/general Election, and it be -1
comes u s in &ciente of ' the deties!we owe our
'C o untry, to consider the questions to be affected by
our infrages, and the fitness's of the candidates tot
earrr out the principles which we desire to see •
previilent.
Thi s Congresiorial' District has long been looked
upon With deep hiterest by the whole nation—we .
have been divided to some extent, into three par :
tics The Democratic Party, proper—the -Frei
soil Party, and the Whig Party. For the purpose
of distinction, the first of Riede have been known ,
- as the Hunkers. 'The prerent campaign was en-,
tered'upon with a candidate of each of these par
ties in the field.
Xrj Lowrey bore the standard of the Hunkers—
a gentleman of unquestionable ability—highly re
spectable as a Lawyer and a man, and a consistent
and undeviating Democrat.
Mr. David Wilmot, having by great effort secur
ed tbe nomination of - the Free-Soil party, had put
oi. the harness, and commenced the campaign with
great vigor. His object was, to demolislthe Hun
ter party, as being at variancej(as tliey undoubtedly
are) with the principles of the Free-Soilers. Dur
ing his progress through the District it became ev
ident that he would secure a large vote, if not a
stneessfurone.
But all at once; Mr. Lowrey and-Mr. Wilmot are
laid aside, and a youngmani lately out of school is
substituted as a candidate, and the support of Hun
ker. and Free-Sellers is asked for him ns a man
who can carry out both seta of principles. Solna
men can carry water on both shoulders, but how
one man is to vote with the! Hunkers in Congress,
and install' the Free-Soil princiPles at the same
time, me must leave to these gentlemen to explain.
We must leave it to them trip, to render an account
of why all the Men of experience and ability, of
age and distinction, were to be laidaside, anda
mere youth placed in the nomination.
The standard bearer of the Whigs, is Mr. John
C. Adams, of Towanda. A gentleman in his man
ners, a good sound Lawyer, a man devoted to - the
protection of the great Interests of the country.—
..The friend of that policy which protects the labor:
Mg man. and gives him assurance of good wages
and steady employment, and -who advocates Free
, Soil, principles as entirely, and hilly consistent with
all the principles of his party and hia life.
Those who have bad the pleasure-Of hearing Mr.
Adams speal, lawn; that if elected, he will be an
honor to the District.
That there ought to be no hesitation in the mind
of every elisetor, we aro well convinced, and that
a large majority ought to redeem the District from
Hunkerism, and establish the Free Soil principles
firmly and irrevocably.
It, is not perhaps Improper for us, to urge upon
the consideration of our Free Soil friends, that
they have been most -basely betrayed. No • public
meeting was held) no expression of public feeling
or sentiment was called for or ekpressed ! a few, a
very few, were intryisted with the secret, and the
biugainings were alt in private, until the Free-Soil •
pOrtion of the Democratic party, were betrayed and
teas bar men i e i eg w li as trampled '.
eft
in the dust bylheir opponents.
Their only chance for redeeming their principles
and overthrowing those who have so unworthily
endeavored- to transfer lhem to their opponents,
is by voting for a man who sustains all their prin
ciples, John C. Adams,
To the whips Susquehanna, we address our
selves, and claim that - they unitedly sustain their
entire Ticket. It iS worthy of your, support. Ral
ly every man to the polls, and see that a thorough
and decided effort be made.
The supposed union of the Democratic party
cannot carry the Free Sellers into -a : union with the
Hunkers. Their principles are our principles and
the bargains of the leaders, will but incense them,
and force them tonssert their principles with us.
1 , hey are too honeirt,shicere and decided to be thus
turned around, even by the popular and talented'
David Wiltnot. _ • "

shOuld entitle him to the suffrages of the enlighten

look in vain for the mental training, the experience

pennies an honest and industrious course, a few

is young, and if his training should hereafter be of

at -present he is not qualified to represent this

• Mr; George Sanderson, his opponent, is not Much
imowa here, and fertunate isit for hiin, that it is
so. He was last fall runoff the court in Bradford
county, where thd rest of the Dem retie ticket
succeeded by fair Majorities. He is well knoivn
there, and a worse defeat we are assured awaits
him this fall. He has been long at the bar, and
his practice is no* exceedingly limited:---a very .
safe criterion this, by which to judge 'Any aspirant
for office., If he hits not /trains enough to succeed
in the legal profesSion, he is not fit to ga to the .
Senate. Any mail is to be preferred to a stupid

For the first tine in many years, we have one
Whig, United States Senator—we ought to have
another. PennsYlvania • interests have been too

should send every whig earnestly, and early 4rthe

I The Small Note Law.
The Wyoming County Whig says tL-So _dissat
isfied are the people of both parties with the princi
ples and operation of the late act in relation to
small bills, that. many have declared their determi
nation to vote for:no one,for Senator or Represen
tative whose opinions on that subject are not well
known and satisfactory to the electors. Messrs.
Harding and *wry are the candidates for repre
sentative from: this coimty. The fOrmer is well
known here tole opposed to the law as it stands,
while the course of the latter timing the last ses
sion leaves no' room to expect - from his legislative
career any relief from the inconvenience of the
present law. Thus between these two, thosa.who
have independence to rise above perry, have no
occasion to hes'itate which to choose. But in refer
ende to the candidates Sing's. Co,the case is differ
