FREDK: WATTS. lase Slander of tlie Dienhers and Jlleia►►onites.. , It appears to be a 'part of the policy of the - Porter party to driye all men who en— tertain any regard for-religion, front any participation' in politics; We frequently. see assaults made on individuals, and even on whtite classes of Christians, because they cannot sanction the excesses of those who are! now seeAng to destroy - the prosperity of the country. - As an instance of this,ve citetheiollowingfrom the Hanover-Herald: George Gitt, Esquire, a Justice of the PeaPe appointed by George Wolf a short time before hp left the gubernatorial chair, and a4eader of the Porter party in this - bo.; ,rou h, said the other day, that "JILL THE - - N 0 N WERE .I,SE T OP D--D.TORIESi" This outrageOus and unjustifiable expres sion,vvas applied to the large and respecta ble body:of our fellow citizens, belonging to the Dunkard and Mennonite denomina tions, because the greater number are in favor- of 'Joseph Miner, the Gervan Far mer--of Washington county, mieopposed to.D. R. Porter, because, he has no knowl -edge-of-the-Gertnark-chareter—is ignoritit of the language, and cannot be considered friendly tO their interests. For proof of this, we arealithorised to refer to Mr. Jour/ HERsuzy, York street, Hanover, of whom it will _be sufficient to - say that he belongs to one of the ; most,, respectable and well known famili,es in York county. , I - Extreictqf -,- a - letteAtcr:the::4'ilitpri-dcyeci Si/Wharf:4*, towinship; iOctpber:l, 5 With regardlo the election, our friends - are - active - and - confident - of success-connt w--1 on from'2o to 20 majoritrin this-township. for - Ritner; --- The, - people:lit the "Ogees - are in favor of the'German Farmer, or the . 4 ‘ Old Ditch H o g,"as the Porte . i men are • pleased;ter earl _him We, are tletermined that Ave will not be bullied at the polhi any more the SCuthamPton lion," - but beard his den, and make hiMloar at. the tesult ,of the, election More thaWititii keOper'had him by '." • ' The Stik:ll*Baifte.3l;';' Our read9's wijL bear .fri;ts of porter have' assailed rep at of itd 4 rtGe State friends ~ d'441464*0rr-bli° money in de9tlUo7, ki . l:lll?Lble".64adi toPkt, 4 . 4`,4 1 * 1 4 . ,;4101 7 ; a l ` f° 11 0.44. 0054 ' 0 .?-4, 1404 e'r 3i0) TOsilirtr;*4 tit:* 4 1 :4,T oI tqf i t , *** 4 00 ..1 , ,ew - li, OinFrsl , 1 4:00 - AR : 1 0, this . sqado , / of maim nail . .?: ,, s24,4#4_,sm.*4o4thic.(kiv t ,p6AASs-64144' •,' • „,•••,,..m o t e Pao* 04.4.0 Wi4," o l4Auffou .l4 o,lAtiZoill Of-thi*, ire at `ills; % . rrASuri:bokruP4';."Yitierv:ACl,t4 o,ul *l4 hundred al# 2 4ithi.fitv',(l(oo*•'. 441 , 1 24 4 4 ,f*, 4 ! it i, vvo. l 4tq.s l o4 ! , 9 r : ,.0 ,1 0 0.,0 4 0 11 0004.0 * ".e*V"Pie#4# 7tt'"'"*"4*, 44,14101twoino.alfiii, 4 06 sreot 04t4:0itop - sc r ottiti‘*.it . 4006110.611 i:: 11 1 ) 1 t . .I.Nt!kt;:liilk,'.#44kJeciedqua' kllen ri"*lnet!f.n4wigkYf;:rciii Aillows! , i ) ox fled hank ' - AMilVinatknie. - we Y give ithe Sturgis, Esq., andthe ; pertifieate . of several. • ether- gentlemen of ShipPensbuig, in .re , gard to the fraudulent manner in:which the.
