FOR GOVERNOR:
WILLIAM BIGLER,
Of Clearfield County.
JUDOZ OF SETRIXI COURT
JEREMIAH S. BLACK,
Of Somerset County.
i'v It CANAL CONJUSSIONY.II
HENRY S. MOTT,
Of Pike County.
The Democratic Party—XOrmica.
One thing cannot have escaped the notioeeviti
of the moscaareleiss observer of the working of
political parties; that there is now making in the
fragmentary Whig party, in all its various de
partments, the most vigorous efforts to cast re
proach upon the Democracy of the country, and
the Executive power of the nation
True, this is not a nee thing in the history of
ouepolitical organizations. It is not a new ele
ment in the Whig party Ridicule with them
is a more powerful weapon than argument, and in
• its use they have uncommon skill Long prat
ties has made them perfect in the use of appro
bious epithets, low cunning and scandal There
never has been a Democratic administration that
• suited theta, or one that they did not denounce
as ruinous to the country and destructive to the
rights and liberties of the people Jefferson and
Jackson were as loudly condemned as Folk and
Pierce The only difference obtains in the fact,
that then the Wbig party was a unit, working
under the t•uidance and direction of muter
minds—but now it is in fragnients---the three
, great portions of w - tilch are the Free Boilers, the
old line Abolitionists and the Garrisonian patty.
Each of tlyse parties has its especial hatred for
the Administration, and for the Democratic par
ty Each at the call of a new opportunity, ri
ses tip to the work of abuse and is true to its
old federal ides The present time is distin-
guisbed by strong political excitement, and the
union of all opposing factions against the Ad
ministration, for at its sanction of a bill passed the
recent session of Congress, giving the people of
the territories of Kansas and Nebraska the same
nght to eintrol their internal affairs, that is con
ceded to New York end Pennsylvania. This is
a plain statement of the whole matter, the height
and deptn of the whole question. And yet
this. our country has not for years known 40
ten , interest and excitement All over the
laud men are called together by flaming band
dud wild, restless spirits, make night hide•
ou , with their long harrangut.44 peop;e up
on rue progressive tendency of the •fave p ,, wer,

d o t o • ha l t hatred ,t 11•, vak4r u rev) and Jeal .u.)
are t•trugglitig in the heart. anal so the throbbing
maw iws wild, and , turgt •cii, and like
that too throws up mire and dirt
, w, why 1 , 4 all this excitement, this ruling
i_s.sc , u• No new principle has been sought by
an) man. or any party to be incorporated into
our institutions. But simply, an old land-mark
that Lad long been obnoxious to a free sover
eign people, especially the people of the North,
, has hecu removed That old line of division
I had long been a "rock of offence, and a stone
o f stumbling" to the Anti-Slavery party of the
North Deep and bitter are the curses they
tiave pronounced upon it. Strong is the lan
guage of their resolutions in which they have
c budemued it Its. repeal, then, could not have
be , u 1 new, Jr unexpected. or unhoped for thing,
with them
It inv Aved no new principle, but on the con
tr.Ar) it carried into action an old and well es
tablished doctrine of the States, that every State
has, and of right ought to have, the controling
power over its own internal policy Why then
should the re-affirming of this principle, old as
th e Constitution of the United States, produce so
strong feelings of excitement in the body politic
and bring down the holy wrath of the Prophet,
and the Church, upon men whose only political
sin is that they have dared in the halls of Con
gress to advocate the dchtrine of State sovereign
ty? Why should any honest and intelligent
man be deceived by the use of meaningless
terms into an opinion unfavorable to the great
principles of the party to which he has belonged,
calculated to alienate his mind from doctrines
and truths the correctness otAritich be has ne
ver doubted, and has never had reason to doubt?
Why should any be deceived with reference to
the I,,,eition of the whig party upon this quer
u.. 151" It is not claimed by any one of them,
neither lb it claimed by any respectable number
of men of any party, that slavery will be extend
ed by the recent act of Congress.
If slavery is not extended thereby, why should
the alarm be sounded through the whole world,
and men called upon to drop all political ties,
and Join the ranks of the enemy
Reference to the past, shows, with bow much
honesty the Whig patty min claim to be anti-sla
very in sentiment or action. Who was the can
didate for the Presidency of that party in '4B!
The man owned a hundred dam.' Who brought
forward the fugitive slave law of '5O, and carried
it through both branches of Congress 1 The

harping whig papers and leaders look these facts
in the face, and honestly and frankly confess to
a candid and intelligent people, ere they claim
to be an anti slavery party, laboring for the ad
vancement and freedom of mankind. But they
have entirely changed, and now smite with the
great mass upon the broad platform of the anti-
Nebraska organisation, we are told. Bat, who,

At one time they denonsoed a United States

ADDRES S
OF THE STATE CENTRAL COMMITTEE
To THY PZOPLK or PINNSYLYANIA•
Fellow eihzena• —We shall now aak your at
tention to the character, claims and qualifications
of the Democratic nominees, and the measures
and merits of the State Administration, leaving
the more abstract and distant quQstiou of
for future consideration
But little need be said at this day of the mer
its and abilities of Goveritor Bigler His person
al history has become familliar to the people of
the State, and his official acts furnish abundant
evidence of hie eminent and rare qualification , ro
discharge the duties of the office he now holds
From the humblest rank in society, unaided by
wealth or influential friends, he rose, when yet
in his minority; to the dignity of a practical prin
ter and editor; and at a very early age, the con
trol of an extensive and useful business He
came into the State Senate in 11342 Though
young, modest nod retiring he soon made a fa
vorable impression on the members of that body
It was the remark of a veuerabie Whig Senator,
on heanug Gov Bigler's maiden speech in the
Senate, which was on the question of resumption
of apevie payments by the banks, "That man
tt ill Dome day be Governor of Peunayivailia.
He served sis•yeara in that body, and iew
its members have left behind thew au ip.asl a re

the great financial crisis tit 1.14 „iv sorely
effected the credit of the State, ~n,ce, were
of the wo-9t eminent character de was :on
*tautly at his post, to meet and repel ail attacks
upon the tionor of the State, fearless voting tor
and sustaining every practical scheme fur the
maintenance of her fidelity, regardless ut coutie
quence personal to himself We recur to the
part which our candidate acted iu those critical
times with pride and pleasure, and we are cunt;-
dent that thousands of our political opponents at
Philadelphia and elsewhere will pin with us in
this feeling.
He was the estrly advocate of eugratting the
principle of individual liability on bank charters
—of the abolition of imprisonment for debt, and
of every measure intended to du Justice to the la
boring masses, and elevate their condition in
life.
His report on the Tariff in 1847 stands in
proud contrast with the feeble and abortive ef
forts of his enemies in the Senate, who attempt
ed to break him down that question It way
a masterly production, eloquent in language aud
sound in doctrine
As much may be said of his speech made the ,
same session, on the policy of constructing the 1
Pennsylvania Railroad When representatives
from Philadelphia and Pittsburgh denounced the
project as impracticable as a ruse and a trick,
Gov. Bigler advocated the feasibility of the route
and the utility of the work, foretelling what has
since taken place with remarkable accuracy
And it may not be improper, at this juncture, to
remind the people of Philadelphia and Pitts -1
burgh of the significant fact, that when Goerner
Bigler was advoe.stieg the construction of a rail
road by a direct route from one city to the other,
through our uwu State, a portion of the repre
sentatives from both thou cities advocated the
policy of making this connection by a circuitous
route, passing through two other States Indeed,
in every exigency that has arisen in the last um
years, Gov Bigler has been the staunch advocate
of the true interests of our great commercial em
porium, and her citiseus, will uei, we trust, for
get this fact ou the day of the elect' .0
His election in 1651 was a triumph of brad
State and National re , hey, fully and fairly tied--
red He was presented to the people AZ the ad
vocate of the Compromise measures of 1850—u
the friend of the tariff of 1846, lie against the
Tariff of 1842—the friend of economy of public
affairs—the advocate of a sound currency—the
opponent of an increase of banking capital, and
the advocate of the fullest liability that could be
iingsed on corporation*.
is administration has been eventful and dis
tinguished by energy, ability and prudence At
the time of his inductiodinto office, the Legisla
ture were indulging in the practice of granting
special privileges to corporations, to carry on
mere business transactions, and to compete with
individual enterprise. This species of legisla
tion had been indulged in to au alarming extent.
Gov Bigler immediately took ground pinta it,
and by a series of veto m, embodying the
soundest doctrine, sustained bythe dearest and
most forcible arguments, soon succeeded in con
vincing all parties, that such all special privile
-1 ges should not be granted; that those who seek to
enjoy the profits of a business enterprise,
under
an act of incorporation, should be required to bear
all the responsibility. This doctrine is now the
settled policy of the State.
It is 1 remarkable fact, that whilst Gov or
Bigler's vetoes in the session of 1852, were ti
mericaßy greater than all that had emanated fro
03 ,132
any one of his predecessors in a full term of ser
vice, not sec measure was sustained by the Gen
eral Assembly against his objections. Indeed,
such is the fact in reference to all his veto mes
sages up to the present time. When the
'stare attempted to crate a broOd of new
and to extend ihtprovidentially paper issues, the
fatal step was arrested by the veto power, and
eleven banks were rejected at one time. When,
again, it wss attempted to give the Pennsylvania

tablishing a most dangerous sad prejmficial pre
cedent in hgielesioa, the evil Imo averted by the

The policy indicated by Gov. Bigler in his first
message, after his induction into o&oe, contained
many stwgestiam l / 2 and among these was the can
eallation of six per coat. bonds for the Common
wealth then outstanding by the creation of five
per cent. bonds This measure was adopted and
a large sum of money, saved annually to the
treasury The policy of sash payments and short
settlements on the public works,is the
cane document, had it been • y into ef
fect by law, could not have failed to exercise a
most healthy influence upon that branch of the
public service.
His predessesor, William Y. Johnston, was the
author of the relief currency. Under the ad
ministration of Gov. Shank, measures had been
adopted to withdraw from circulation and cancel
this noxious medium Very soon after the
Whigs came into power, under Gov. Johnston,
this process of cancellation, so wisely began, was
arrested, and provisions made to continue this
depreciated and oonstitutional currency in circu
lation, by paying the Banks a large compensa
tion, from time to time, for re-issuing the defaced
notes. Among the first measures of the present
administration, was to make provisions for the
final withdrawal and extinction of this currency,
and the work of cancellation is again in opera
tion.
In this single item of State policy, fellow citi
zens, we have • very striking illustration of the
difference between Federal and Democratic meas
ures. It is for you to determine which are
right, and the best adapted to promote the pros
perity of the State
But in nothing has Gov Bigler rendered a
more important service to the people, than by
his constant and untiring efforts to break down
the pernicious system of omnibus and special
legislation. This was among his earliest remmi
menttatiotuir and in the session of 1853, a few
general laws were adopted on the repirt and re
commendation of commissioners appointed by
him for that purpose under an set ot the Legis
lature, and much goott was thus affected
In the Governor's message of 1854, however,
he placed the axe at the root of this tree of evil,
this spreading Upaa, by declaring most emphati
cally, that Le should u. , iunger participate in
that offensiit -,ysteui it legislation; and that the
whole power of thi. Eitetutive Department should
be wielded against It The sentiment received

at the instance of Governor Bigler They had
been undertaken before he come office, and
the wise policy seemed to be to conduct the w to
au early completion Indeed it bass been de
clared as a fixed policy of the administration,
that nu new schemes of improvement shall be
commenced
Nor has the honor and dignity ,f the State
been permitted to suffer in any instance When
the Executive of a neighboring State refused to
surrender a fugitive from justice, against whom
a true bill of indictment.for kidnapping but 'teen
found the county of Chester, the right and
dignity of the Commonwealth was vindicated in
a paper of surpassing power and ability. Liug

life—yea, after his head shall be pillowed be
heath the sods of the valley, this document will
be referred to in the archives of Pennsylvania,
as a model fur other executives, and continue to
excite the pride aud admiration of her people.
When again at a subsequent period, an exi
gency arose at the city and county of Erie, in
volving no inconsiderable extent the honor aud
dignity of the State, he was nut found wanting,
but came up fully to public expectation His
energy and firmness in this crisis commanded the
respect of all. When told as he was frequently
that the measures he deemed expedient to adopt,
would prejudiur his political prospects in this ur
that locality, his unitorm reply was--it mat
tered not, he had the honor of the State to pr 1-
tect, and that should be dune at all hazards. -
Fellow-citizens: shall an officer thus tiouest,
devoted, prudernt,and able, be discarded or strict
en down, for ligi4 and imaginary causes? Shall
a policy in State Iffairs so wise be abandoned to
give place to a Federal rule? We hope not;—
and we would be doing injustice to thi. people to
even entertain the thought for a moment We
believe you will retain Governor Bigler, as you
have done all his Democratic predeoeeeurs, for
the constitutional term. We dii not claim per
fection for his administration, nor for the man.
There are, doubtless, grounds for honest differ
epees of opinion, whether the wisest policy has
at all times been pursued, but we do claim that
the good greatly preponderates, and that his
purposes have been universally pure slid patri
otic. In the distribution of executive patronage
every one who applied could not be appointed;
and although this was necessarily sat, it is a diffi
culty which must be encountered by all admin
istrstioua. Some worthy citizens may have felt
that they had just cause for complaint—but so
long as the public 'emit* be well performed,
you will agree with us, that it is of minor im
portance who shall be the agent of the work—
and certainly no than will forsake his principles
and party, for reasons so untenable and result&
so unavoidable
The Hon. Jeremiah S Black, the Democratic
candidate for Judge of the Suprrtue Court, re
quires nu recommendation at oar hands. He
has been weighed in the balance and not found
wanting. His pail tient qualifications for the
place, his profound ,cixolarship, his fine literary
attainments and Liz , unsullied moral character,
are the theme of general admiration, among men
of all parties, lawyers and laymen. Indeed,
these qualifications, his entire and peculiar fit
ness, his honesty and his great moral worth, will
not tfe gainsayed by the most violent partisan.—
It would bane the most prolific brain to produce
one well-founded reason against his re-election.
The numerous opinions be has written since he
has been the Chief Justice of the present very
able and learned bench, not long since chosen
by the people of Pennsylvania under their re
moddled constitution, by which they are permit,.
ted to choose, as is their right, the administra-
LIOR al well as the makers of the laws, and his
literary productions at an earlier period of his
life, have distinguished him as a man of extra
ordinary powers of mind, and have made for him
a reputation of which his native Blase my justly
boast.
