due deference to cur cotemporary to suggest, that
under our. Republican system of governmer;t, all

equal of the! ' favorites of fate," the pamperad
children of .wealth, and that no citizen can pos
sibly occupy a positun in which he is justified
in r gar ding with contempt the merited censure

who is not solicitous to command the esteem of his
fellow' citiztcs, and who regards their ji:;4 censure
.i his conduct with contempt, is a bad man, and
i .Lscquently a bad cit'.en. Our neighbor seems
to think that it 13 ridiculous for a country editor
to censure the politicd course of a city tfu7y
"r. ith in- immense circulation,-" er to say aught
eoncerniug the position occupied by a member of
the United States Senate, with regard to an im
portant political question of the day. 1st. it then
matter of perfect indifference to Senator Doug-.
1 is and John W. Forney what tho honest De
mocracy cf Cambria, who read the "Democrat &
Sentinel," say and think of them. Would they
not much rather have the" unanimous endorse
ment and support of the Mountain Democracy
than tin ir censure. There is not a citLz.n of Cam
- bria County who has not the right, as . one of a
nation of Sovtriigt s, "to stand uuabashed even
in the presence of Printes. We cannot endorse
the aru-tocratic principle which justifies and n
courages the man who has attained to a position
of honor or mfluer.ce, to treat with contempt the
ci mion entertained concerning him, by any por
tl.u however small of his fellow citizens and
peers. . . . '
We are too fnilii.r with the history of Senator
Douglas' political career, to suppose for a mo
ment that ho would promulgate or endorse such ,
doctrine, and even Forncj' would be loath to do
o. They know that country Newspapers arc
read by 'almost every intelligent person in the
countici in which thy are published, and that
csequtritly their influenco "combined, is more
powerful than tha.t of the city dailies. .They
:lso know lhat the humblest American' citizen is
a sovereign, as well as the highest, ind partici
pates to the same extent in the selection of those
who make and administer the laws. - Of cour&e,
it may be true that John W. Forney never peru
sed any artiele concerning him. which ever ap
peared in this paper. Of course it is a matter of
perfect indifference to us, whether he did or did
net do so. The editorial articles we pen are 'in
tended for the perusal of our subscribers, and
when we think John ,Y. Forney - or any other
man is acting the part of a traitor and dema
gogue," we will publish the fact, without stopping
to inquire whether we will incur the anger or the
contempt of the individual implicated, by so do
ing. ' The sphere in which we act is an humble
one, but still we have duties to perform, and not
the least imp Jitant of those duties,-is the expo
sing of the conduct of corrupt demagogues who,
while professing to be consistent Democrat, are
endeavoring to annex the parly to the Black lie
publican orgauization. . That this is the "consii-
mation" John Y. Forney is laboring for, no one
familiar with, his course during tha political cam
paign' of last year will for a moment doubt. ' He
is n.ot a Defttbcrat, but a cold, selfish, designing
demagogue. Our neighbor is welcome to 'v pitch
iu" for hhrTas soon as it suits him to do so." As
he endorses the principles arid doctrines of Mr.
Forney, he should always stand ready to defend
him when assailed. It is uutuml that the desci
plc should serve the master, - v . , - -: . ' . . '

printed slips, purporting to contain the Demo
cratic ticket for State and County offices, were
"circulated through several townships of this
county. On examination, it was discovered that
they contained the names of several Republican

of the Democratic party. We do not know where
they were printed, nor is it our intention bow to
institute a l inquiry into the matter. We mere

several sections of this county, lhat said tickets

, and the men who gavs currency to it liars we
can call them by no milder name. ' And, as the
boy said in the debating -society, with these few
remarks we disraise the Bubject.

'endorses John W. Forney, ."ho is no longer enti-

taining Judge Taylor's "-opinion, were circulated
among the members of the Legislature. "We
say that several of the extra copies were circula

that is was -done free, gratis." These are his
very words. The members who received the
extra .copies , could not be subscribers of the

would not have been extra ones, nor would they
have received them tree gratis. It is always

THE NEW COUNTY MOVEMENT-
We are glad to perceive that our citizens ar
at length alarmed by the efforts now being made
in our State Legislature to secure the passage of
the bill for the erection of Pino county, during
tlie present session cf the Legislature'.' ( ,The citi
zens : cf Chest and. Susquehanna townships, in
cluded' within the bounds of the proposed new
county, arc opposed to the measure almost to a
man. Nearly all of them have' signed-remoii.
strances against the erectitu" of , the -new county"
with its present" boundaries.- They entertain no
desire to dissolve partiiership '"with little Cambria.
The erection of Pine courity would confer no
substantial benefit cii 'at least nine-tenths cf the
inhabitants included within its boundaries. .On
the coulrary, it vould be a serious injury to mot
of them. They, would be burthered with taxes,
for' years to come. . for the purpose of erecting
public buildings, and paying other expenses in
cideut to the organizing of -a nw county.: The
region of country included witlrin the boundaries
of the proposed new county is generally sparsely
setiieti, ana consequently in tne event oi its erec
tion, the taxation for county purposes .would be
a ''burthen hard to.bear.''r ' ' '
