OUR PROSPECTS.
At the present time when eflorts are being
. . .
made to induce the Democracy or Cambria
to abandon their old landmarks, aod to assist
the united Torces ot tbo ivnow-othing ana
Black-Republican parties to triumph, it will
ertainly bo admitted that the question sub-
xnitted to their determination is one of very
great importance, and the propriety of their
taking a comprehensive common sense view
of it must be evident to all.
Nothing can bo more eertain than that the
"volunteer candidates,". Palmer & Co.. are re-
all v tha candidates of. the Kncw-Nothing and
Black Republican parties. If we arc ' not

Their reasons for conducting themselves in
such a vicillating manner in this matter is
obvious. They aro -confident of. receiving
the entire Know-Nothing "and Black-Republican
voto of the eonaty, because it baa been
pledged to them by the " leaders," and they
hope to secure enough of votes from "dis
affected" Democrats - to secure their elec
tion. Whether they are right in their cal
culations, time will determine.. We hazard
the opinion that the result on the second
Tuesday of October will prove that they hare

Nothieg Tictory in the -'Star of tho West."
It bas until recently Veen a received and un-
contradicted opinion, amony the members of
the Democratic party, that the ascendency of
its "princTplrt in the admroktratbn of the
affairs of State was essentially necessary to
the permenent glory and happiness of our
beloved country, and it was always heretofore
supposed that Democratic measures could on-
ly be sustained thTdfc;h the votes of Demo-
ocratiemen. But it would scorn from the
statements oi tue iN-a-t-i-o-n-a-i u-fs- i

George W-iBowman.
A few weeks ago we took our leave of the j
Ex-Editor of the 4 Hedford Gazette," as we I
ilin nnnn!d fnrw for we had no desire to
give tkoiow fawning demagogue the benefit

of the Notoriety which we well knew, he was

endeavoring to acquire by keeping up a con-
tinued and exciting controversy with tho Dom- J
fM.r.im TTnor
his last manifesto is such an exceedingly rich
document, that we have determined to accord
it at least a brief notice. It is addressed to
that veteran Democrat, Dr. Wm. A. Smith
of this county, who since arriving at the years
of manhood has always been an active con
cistcnt and fearless defender of the men and
measures of th Democratic party, and the
devoted friend of James Buchanan, through banks have been exerting themselves to the
all the vicissitudes of the political eareer of ut,most o the last rtnight. to sustain them
. . T - . ., salves, and most or them would etui be able
.u.uuubmumii.. n not .u
power oi xsowman w injure me sianamg oi j
Dr. Smith with the Democracy of Pennsyl
vania. No public man in the State can pro
duce a fairer record than Dr. Smith, and it
woold be well for Bowman if he could say
the same thing of himself with truth.
Bowman denies that he - ever inteftred in
the local politics of this county, and yet in J
almost tho next paragraph he acknowledges
that he advised or instructed the Democracy
of Cambria, through the columns of the
N- gn,itb the regular nominee of the party
for Assembly. Ui not this interfering m
nis own mouth ne condemns himself.
jjowman is exceedingly anx:ous to ereate the
. ...... .1
""preasion abroad, that the Democracy of
Cambria are hostile to the administration of
James Buchanan ; a viler calumny could not
u im!lg;ney. The Democracy ef this county
fe J . J
were tho earnest advocate of the nomination
f James Buchanan, and the vote which they
, . . . , . vnf.niv,r
,
proved the estimato which they then enter
tained of the man. And their opinion has
since undergone no change. They sincerely
rejoice at the prudence and success which has
thus far attended his administration. In no
I . . .1
ether county in tbe State, can he number
more sincere and devoted friends than in this.
If Bowman has no desire to to interefere
m the local politics of this county, why did I
he request the Editor of the " National Dem-
ocrat" to publish his communication ? The
Democracy of Cambria will no doubt feel
dulj grateful, for the commendable desire he
manifests, of affording them an opportunity
of clearly ascertaining the opinions and views.
