DELEGATE ELECTIONS
It will be seen - by the proceedings of the -
Standing Committee that NEXT SATURDAY
has been designated as the day for electing
Delegates to the Whig County Convention,
whiclrmectson the 19th inst., to put in nomi
nation a Whig County Ticket. The notice is

without regard to the action of out pulitital
opponents, we hope the Whigs will promptly
attend to the, call and sea that good and true
men are sent to 'the Conyentibn from. every
•
township.-
Tim importance of giving proper attention
to the elections for delegates in the several
wards and townships, says a cotemporary, must
be manifest to every man who desires to see
our public offices, filled by capable and honest
'men. In every canvass it is necessary that
every man who desires the success of his par
ty, should lose sight of no opportunity to pro
mote that success ; and as the selection of de
legates is_l/10 starting point towards the nomi
nation of candidates, it becomes the duly of
-every one to aid in , rendering these primary
elections a full;lree and impartial expression of
the views and feelings of each ward and town
ohip, so that When the nominations are Mire
'made they may carry weight with thorn and
ensure the hearty and cordial co-operation of
all, nstend of . being subjected to drawbacks
resulting from personal differences, factional
bickering and ill-feeling. Candidates for the
following ofilces'will have to bo put in noinins
tion.by the . County Convention:
One person for Congress,
One person for State Senator,

The County Conventions.
The nominating Conventions of both parties
in this county meet next week—the Whig Con
vection on Monday and that of oar opponents on
Tuesday. Both tickets will_thereformbminlthe_
field before-the-August-Court.—Our oppohents
Kaye generally - had 'the advantage of - having
their ticket made up and before the public, pt
least a week before the Whig ticket was .nom-
Mated. Many of our friends have long thought
that-k have in this way more or less lost
ground. The County Committee has however
dceided on more prompt action, with res.:
;cll.° the Whig ticket this' year. 'So far as
• e can understand there is very little feeling
among the Whigs Of the county as to candi
dates. Very little preference is shown for par
ticular men. All that the party asks of the
Convention is the. nomination of Men Whose
character and qualifications are known to be
good, and who will thus give strength and suc
cess to the ticket.
The rumblings of a coming storm in the
ranks of our opponents already roach our ears.
A very warm contest is going on among sever
al aspiranbi in town, to the nomination for coun
ty Commissioner. Besides this, the locofoco
Convention.of last year formally resobied that
ono of the Legislative candidates then nornina-
Tecr should be dropped at the expiration ,of the
session, Tho question is now which shall be

There mttt be no Cameion-men , sent to the

has defended tho -course or Mr. Chuoch, and.
under the-load of the dreat champion of locolo
coism in 'Dickinson - township, Col. Samuel
Woodburn, is rallying its forces for a grand on
set
upon the "Jesse Miller faction!" Whit mill
ho the result - v.v.° can scarcely yet conjecture.
Col. Woodburn is hail to beat. He is one •of
the most indefatigable Locos in the county, and
when Gen. Bowman of the Bedford Gazettes
met him toiling on Sib road to the Pittsburg
Convention through the heat and dust of,..Au
gust, he could not help cieluiming-that ho was
one of the "most enthusiastic democrats" ho
had ever met with ! Tho Jesse Miller faction
claim in advance with no little exultation that
the Klass of the party is with them. But Col.
Woodburn may show thorn to their sorrow, af
ter he introduces his tactics, that the "battle is
nut always to the strung." .

1; is amusing,anys the Lancaster Union, to
observe the the locofoco edyors in. the
State are now at to give circulation to the ab
surd belief that Gov. Jo nston's friendly rela
tions with Gon. TAYLOR, and efficient support'
of his administration, have compromised his'
standing with President Fillmore -and his ad
ministration. A more silly idea never entered
a muddy brain. Goy. Johnston's high standing
and position in the Whig party of the Stale and
nation is the, legitimate result of his devotion
and great services to that party and cannotle
affected by,any adventitious circumstancee.- , --
His noble exertions in this State in the 'Whig
cause can neither lie overlooked nor forgotten.
whilst his administration-has been such as to
widen and deepen his hold upon the 'affections
of the people, and to redound to the prosperity
and honor of the Commonwealth. • • •
havC yet to be convinced of the fact that
Goy. Johnston's friendship for the favorite of
the Nation, the lamented hero and patriot TAT-I
Lon, and uniform and cheerfitl support of all'
the prominent measures of his Administration,
I can have any unfavorable effect upon the Mind
of his -patriotic Whig'. successor. Viewed in

This letter; and these statements and intima
tions so formally submitted to the Chief Mag
istrfile, have eliCited tliTimportant Message tiTi
which we 'hive just referred. In that states '
man-like doemant the leading facts are reca
pitulated, and the language of the Constitution
is quoted as to the dutiefl of the National Ex
ecutive. That instrument enjoins, that

thorities, it becomes a rease , in -Which it is the
duty of the President either to call out the mi
litia, or to employ the military and naval force
of the United States, or to do both, if, in his
judgment, the exigency•of the occasion shall so
require, for the purpose of suppressing such
combination. Texas, , Mr.Fillthore argues, is a •
State authorized to maititain.her °willows so
far as they aro not, repugnant to the constitu
tion, laws and treaties of the United States, to
suppress insurrections against he.r authority,
and to punish those who may commit treason
a ‘ gai list' the State, according to the forms prep
vided by her own constitution, and her own
laws; but this power is local, and confined en-'
tirely,withm the limits of Texas herself. -She
can confer no authority which can be lawfully
exercised beyond her own boundaries. If, there
fore, the Texhn militia should march into ono
of the other States, or into any territory of the•
United Stifles, there to execute or enforce any
law of Texas, they become, at that moment,,
tresspassers, and they are no longer under the
protection of any lawful authority, and ore to •
be regarded merely as intrudersi - and if within.
Such State or Territory' they obstruct any Jaw

or mero power of numbers constituting such a,
combination as is too powerful who suppreieed.
by the civil authority, the President of the U..
States has no option left to him, but is bound:
to obey the solemn injunction of the constitu—

cal and civil authority, such seizures or attempt

Thority of the United States. '
This language 'is plain and unequivocal.-
The President expresses the opinion that No w .
Mexico is note a ter;-ilori- of the United States
with the same extent and the same boundaries,
whirh belonged to it while in Me actual posses
sion of the Republic of Mexico befor'e the latg
war. Ho quotes tho treaty of Guadeloupe, and;
says it is plain from its provisions, that the
Executive Governmental the United States
has no power to determin; what was the true
line of boundary,bel worn Mexico and the United
States before the treaty, nor has it ally such
power now, since the question has become a
question between the State of TO-ktie .c anci 'the ,
United States. 'So far as this boundary redoubt
ful, that doubt can only be removed byi soma
act of Congress,to which the assent of the State
of - Toxas may be necessary; or-by some nprire;)

meantime, if disturbances should arise, it is ab

that iho laws be fully maintained,- and ho eon

Commissioners. Ile therefore proposes that
Congress offer 7:c.ras an indemnity fyr,the sur

Col. J. W. Fonngy—Dear Sir—My attention

Slave Excitement in Washington
Wti.sformcmar,-August 9.—A very great ex
citement has been created here, by an attempt
at the abduction of slaves. It seems that four
male slaves, the property of Hon. A. H. Ste
phens
and Robert Toombs, Congressmen of
Georgia, have been missing for severlel days.—
N-eone-knew_oL th eir_wherealmats_until_last_
evening, when it was discovered that they had
been-concealed by, certain abolitionists. The
latter, hearing of the discovery, determined to
take them out of the district. The pollee,
however, get an inkling of their intentions and
started in pursuit. When about four miles
from the city, they overtook a carriage con
taining the four -fugitive slavesOn charge of a
white man. The party in the carriage fired on
their pursuerb and the firing- was returned.—
Two men were badly injured: After a slight
altercation a capture was effected of three of
the slaves, their
,white protector and the hack
driver, and they ,.. have all beon committed to
prison. Ono of the slaves, belonging to elr.
Toombs, made his escape during the melee.
Another Account.—A white man, not atta hed
to ihe National Era office,'Va repeitedriltt trip
led to abscond two slaves belonging to \I ssrs.
Toombs and•Sievens. They were pursued by
two of the auxiliary guard, and one -slave and
the while man captured. The other slave gel
away. Twenty-six shots were; red by the
parties, and the slave that was taken was badly
injured. fflierejs much excitement.in the city
about it.

SENATORSTURGEON'S SPEECH!
11E141. ! !—The lion. Daniel Sturgeon,
United States SerTfffr from Pennsylvania, has
absolutely made a speech—perhaps Wo might
justly any another speech, for we believe about
six montlii ago when an anti-slavery petition
wits presented from ,owe of our Quaker popu
lation, his tongue found eloquence enough as
ho got up tad cautioned the Senate - against lis
tening to the petition, to characterize it as hav
ing been blackliearted* Abolitionists r'
But Daniel has made7mother speech. He gave
the Quakims their due, and noiv he triumphant
ly replies to' the advocates of Protection!—'
It_appenr 4 a_that Mr, Qopper_presentml.one.A.uy.
last week a large number,ol,pctitions from peo
ple of Pennsylvania, praying fur . a modification
of the tariff, nail forcibly advocated' the prayer
of the.petitioners.„ But Daniel did not agree_
with him, and he forthwith rOplied. We give
hie entire speech an the telegraph reports it :
My. StuPgeon acknowledged that there was
great depression in the iron interests but attrib
uted it to the fact that the business had bee❑
overdone, both in Europe and at home. On the
other hand, the agricultural interests of Penn
sylvania were never store prosperous than now.
Thorn Is a speech, "briefbut eloquent" and
comprehensive Wills ono sweep of a power
ful intellect ho brush's off the arguments of his
opponent s : . There is depression in the iron in
terest, but the iron business is overdone. Yes,
it is undone too, nerluips, for half the iron Co
tablishrnents. have been idle for mmtlis end are
in the Sheriff's hands! On the oilier hand the
agricultural interests were never more prosper
ous !" Yes, most grave and reverend Senator,
while you have; been filling a chair this sum
mer in the Senate at eight dollars a day, our
farmers under the benignant smiles of Provi
donee have been gathering a magnificent and
abundant harvest, But with the home market
cut down by the ruin of other interests, and
with the foreign market glutted, what is to
sustain the groat prosperity o the ugrie.e.ura
interest ? But we merely meant to give tho
ohne the last groat 'speech. of Mr. Senator
Sturgeon!
Hon. Thomas 'Corwin
Since the appointment of this gentleman to a
post in the cabinet, says the Huntingdon Jour
nal, the Locofoce press is pouring out a second
edition of its abusive slung upon his head. Amt ., :
this abuse is re-echoed verbally by the scaven
gers and blackguards of thnt party on the cor
ners of every street in every town and village
in the land. And why is this? Simply be
cause Corwin is a pure and high-minded man, ,
who speaks the truth, and whose towering elo
quence has frequently been employed in expo
sing"and rebuking - the iniquities of Locofeco-

Tariff of • 1134143.
The Tariff of 1846 has ever since its pa4sage
operated most disastrously to the interests of
the country. From a statement contained in
the Railway Journal, we gather the following
facts, viz : that there are In Pennsylvania 57
anthracite blast furn4ces, of which 5 are un
finished, and 23 out of blast. The actual make
of 1849, was 109,168 tons; while the capacity
of the furnaces is equal to . 221,4000 tons.—.
There are employed in these 'furnaces 4,228
men, and 2,126 !serves and other animals.
From these stuti,tics, says the Deify News, it
is safe to estimate that more than twelve thou- .
sind iron-workers have been thrown out of
employment by the tariff of 18 1 6. The aggre•
gate daily wages of these men would be $B,OOO,
or nearly $BOO,OOO per annuri. Add 5,000 for
others connected otherwise - than its workers - in:
si e these establish , -- - ' • .1111,—•
at sl_ per .day, ant
we have an aggregate direct loss of $1,000,000;
whole of which is paid to the iron-wor
kers of England, Scotland and Wales. This is
ono of the modes in which the L,Cofnco Tarilf
of 184,6 benefits the woilsing-urea of the United
States. •
