portant issues which your votes are to de

your own fellow-citizens, and protecting

you will vote for Gen. Winfield Scott, the
fried of his country, and the friend of the
American System. lie is identified with
the greatness and glory of the Union.
He has ever been the advocate and sup

A German Democratic meeting was
held in Cincinnati last week for the con
demnation of the Secret Loco-Poco Soci
ety, the existence of which was brought
to light a few days ago in that city. Ad
dresses were made by Mr. Remelin, a
German, late Democratic Senator from
Cincinnati, and, at the close of the pro
ceedings, two hundred and forty-two
Germans, who had previously been strong
Democrats, signed a declaration that they
had been misled as to the character and
objects of the Whig party, and-that, at the
next election, they will "vote the Whig
ticket, and nothing hut the Whig ticket."

It is well known to us all, that our op
ponents, under the lead of scores of col

other experienced and interested politi-
cians,are always organized always ready
for the contest, no matter how trifling
always able to poll their full vote for all
regularly nominated candidates of the
party, whether Town Constable or for
President.
The Whigs, on the other hand, can
boast comparatively few politicians. They
have in their ranks thousands of quiet, re-
tiring citizens, who, tho' they will rally I priety of emphasis that elicited universal ap
with great enthusiasm around the standard j plauBe. The exercises forcibly reminded the

even make a bold stroke for Governor,
yet who think and care so little for minor
offices, it is nearly impossible to have them
at the polls on such occasions as the last.
The difference between the election just
over and the one at hand will prove this
to be true.
In 1840 the whigs were beaten by 6,

didate for Governor by the most strenu
ous personal effort had brought out a large
vote, and been himself elected. Though
at the polls .they seemed to care so littler
for the office, they permitted Mr. Middles
.warth, one of the best and ablest men in
the State, to be beaten by thousands.
TJiree weeks afterwards, General Taylor
carried the Electoral vote of Pennsy vania
by 15,000 majority. These instances arc
full of significance,- and arc only cited to
cheer the. hearts -of our friends at a dis
tance. Those near at hand arc neither
discouraged nor intimidated, but roused
to mightier exertions.
Seventy jive thousand votes iccre not poll
ed at the last election. Nay, many more
than these, but seventy-five thousand that
will be cast in November. Two-thirds of
these may be safclv set down as Whig.
No man will dispute this, who understands
the politics of Pennsylvania. There is no
danger as long as the Locofoco vote does
not increase. In not a single county of
the State has it increased. Two-thirds
of these hack votes no repeat are Whigs.
And this alone-will enable us to overcome
"the apparently large majority of our ad
versaries, independent of other considera
tions. But there arc other considerations.
In PennsyJvania there are thousands of
Democrats who never in their lives voted
a Whig" ticket, and perhaps openly and
vigorously, and still others who will up
hold him secretly. These voting "off and
on" count double. General Scot is many
thousands stronger than his party. His
liigh and untarnished character his long
services and glorious career, are irresisti
ble claims with his countrymen. No mat

For the Jeffersonlan Republican.
Mr. Printer: Sir: Lewis Vail, Princi
pal of the Stroudsburg Academy, at the close
0f the jast session favored a few of our citi-
Zens with an exhibition, peculiarly gratifying
to all those present, who were truly the
,,nP"ani "es as a preuepiur.
He has
6tudied assiduously the different theories of
instruction, approved and promulgated by the
most successful and intelligent teachers of
the country, and reduces the same to practice
with the most signal success. The course
he has pursued since he took charge of the
above Institution, in discarding the worthless
and intiquated systems of teaching, and in
the introduction of the improved modern dis
cipline, I doubt not, meets the approbation of
the public as it most certainly insures a far
greater proficiency in all branches of study,
as was clearly verified by his pupils on the
occasion above refered to. The several class
es went through with their recitations with a
distinctness of enunciation and a tasteful pro-
that forms a bright and fairy oasis in the
bleak waste of by-gone years.
