I understand the meaning of this hearty .uti prolonged salutation, and I thank you for it. lam proud to express my gratitude to the Democrats of Westmoreland. Our groat and glorious county is dower to me now than ever. Provident* has blessed us with the riaittet gifts, fertile I soil, healthy climate, beautiful scenery, exhaustless min eral traistriss--a people brave, hardy, industrious and honest. What more can we desire? That only which is within our command—the reassertion of oar ancient po. 'Meal faith by oar ancient and magaileeut majority. If any of you think we are not well treated—that, to be Westmoreland/sr, is to bee vietim to falsehood and faction, here is our remedy—give two or three thousand Democrat_ lemajority, and we shall agile told oarjaat place in the Councils of the party, as proud as the proudest, and us certain as the moat sees,.. Let us have our redress by beatiag the common meomy--never by Maturing a harsh thought of oar political brethren. All true Democrats are boas d together by the sacred ties of political atoet ion. OUT ends and interests are ideatioal. Oar action meet be harmonious. All matey alike the glory of oar great vieto ries—the triumphs of truth, of justice and of order ; the assurance of security, of prosperity, and of the perpetuity of our free inetitations--the sacred legacy of our ances tors, eighth we are Mend, the most molests obligations of duty, to transmit, unimpaired, to our posterity. Bofors these truths—and they are the breath of political lifts—how small are all personal considerations—how un important is any eau What matters It who is considered the most worthy of the constitutional trusts, when their Ildreetive vindication is to be found only in the continuous ascendency of that Democratic spirit which rightly inter pret. and boldly applies the eternal principles of human right in organised government. The Harrisburg Convention has presented to the people candidates every way worthy of support I speak from personal knowledge. when I say gist General PaVter is a wise, experienced, energetic and discreet statesman it .s safe to say that his administration will be pure, his polity sound . that, supported by srlegislatire mejority of radical Demoorau, corruption will be driven from the Capitol. and the wages of Iniquity will cease to he raid h . ., public pleader, Mr. Strickland was appointed an A•,..tist• Judge by Governor Shunt, one of the purest patriots that Pennsyl vania ever predated. I was present when ibis appoint sent Was discussed and determined, and well recollect that fearless integrity was the element of all other, in his excellent character which decided the case Mr. Strong is from Berke—glory enough for any man. I knew him nearly twenty years ago. A lawyer equal to any antagonist and any cause—calm, clear and sound He wisely pursued his profits/don with undivided devotion. until his industry made him independent of Court, and ellente. He then went to Congress, and sustained there this high reputation he had acquired at the bar With Judge Thompson, it Is my misfortune to have but slight sequaintanoe, but every one knows his high repo tatioa for talent, teaming and industry. He has been • suceossfeincter on no small theatre, and i, eminent both professionally and politically. All these gentlemen are of spotless character, enlarged experience and decided ability—fit for and worthy the po Miens for which they are candidates. They are the legit imate choice of the party—and thus they are your ohoice sad mine—nine in a special manner, because I was a can didate before the Convection, and am therefore bound, by the highest considerations of personal honor and political fidelity, to exert myself -to the utmost to increase the splendor of our certain •ietory There is no sacridoe or merit in this, for I Meanie • candidate, as many of you know, against my own views and wishes: and I am quite content to remain where the judgment of the party has left me—a private in the ranks of oar republican army, ready hereafter, as heretofore, to give battle to the hostile fregmoats of discordant parties which seek to mar our Prue front the cares of official responsibility, I eau enjoy the sweets of home, the Innomat pleasures of rural life, the society of my neighbors, and - absolute personal indepondenha No, gentlemen, my only regret is for your disappointment, and for my inability rightly t . • a u goner ous support. am sure you will allow me to say that Westmoreland will remember their kindness to one pf her citisens, and will repay them if it is ever in her power. It is at least in our power to prove, by unwavering de votion to the party, that we merit the confidence of our friends. Asiettow proud 11 , the potition of that party? What is it but the embodied patriotism which has guided the destinies of the Hopubtie from feeble infancy to the maturity of National mahood—which has made ourlinmes happy, our rights secure, our arms triumphant—which has insured domestic tranquility, and pr o u tu u r d us f rom foreign violonott--which has carried us in safety to the highest poiat of earthly prosperity, which has demonstrated the Asperity of man for self.geterningatr—whieh his taught tyrants to tremble, and warmed Mith hope the hearts of the opp d throughout the world.
