We repeat it is the design of some persons to overturn the laws--which would defeat the inaugura tion of Governor and the proclamation of the adoption of the New Constitution. The pretence of all these acts of out rage is that certain members of the Sen. ate and House, have been admitted on the returns known to the law, to take their seats without having been duly elected. This pretence is utterly false. Endeavors are made to over-awe the Senate and House by violence, in order to prevent the disclosure of the enormous frauds perpetrated in the county of Philadelphia. They know that these frauds can be pro. ved--that they dare not invite an investi gation, and are resolved to seat their par zans by force—prevent the regular mee ting of the Le,,,rislature until after the time allowed for the investigation of the elec tions by law; thus concealing those frauds; while the returned members from the city and county of Philadelphia ask, and ear nestly desire this investigation Inflammatory meetings have been held and writings published and widely circu lated, in order to forestall public senti. ment; while the friends of the Constitution and the laws, have been restrained by men secretly armed against uttering the truth to the people. The time will come when they will be heard--when the laws will be executed, and suspended justice redressed. A party who resort to the aid of mobs to sustain them, cannot be in the. right. We let the people know the truth. They will decide the question by the con dign punishment of the authors of all these events, so disgraceful to the character of this State and country, and so subversive of the principles of our free institution.

Gazette. We see by Philadelphia papers, that Gen. Pattersan has called out his Tirifgsde and ordered them to march to Harrisburg with fifteen cartridges of buck shot, and seven of hall. We understand that they have arrived. Our friends who were returned as Sen ators from Philadelphia County, have re. fused to act untill investigations have been made. This is noble, and shows who are for holding their seats by fraud. The members in the lower house, have alstipublicly announced their anxiousness to have the matter investigated. Our opponents, are trying to create mob and riot, so that the time which the law has laid down for contesting shall be passed. —then they will not investigate because, there will be no law for it. What Demo crate . The Cause of the Riot. Every means have been taken to charge upon the Democrats the cause of all the disgraceful scenes enacted at Harrisburg. Every Loco Foco here, or elsewhere, ai e busy misrepresenting the true state of af fairs. At one time they deny that there is any noise or disturbance there; and with the next breath they charge Stevens and Burrowes with bringing it all on. The true cause of it all is but lately de veloped. A majority of the people declar ed at the ballot box that the patronage of the Governor, should be taken away- —the new Constitution was adopted. Madden • ed, at the loss of the spoils; and fearful that they would be shipwrecked with their hopes of plunder, they purpose kee ping the Legislature in confusion, until after the day, which the law has pointed out, as the one to decide whether the new Constitution has carried—which was yes terday. If the mob of Loco Focos have kept up their bullying, and illegal mea sures, until to-day, then they intend to declare that the new Constitution is lost; send for Mr. Porter, and inaugerate him under the old. This is the cause of all the riot and mob, They are determined to rob the people out of their vote on the Constitution, by, in fact refusing to count up the votes, according to law. Such is the plans concocted by this party claiming to be Democratic, and in favor of the people's rights. Let the people remem ber what we say; and they can ere long learn who arc the Democrats. After they have succeeded in putting down the new Constitution, we under stand that they, intend saying it was lost' because some of ti e returns were not properly made. This same party which says blood shall be shed it their Philadel- Ithia County members don't take their 'seats, because they had the most votes, no matter whether properly returned or not, a majority of the people must rule— this they call their creed; but when a blunder in the returns gives them back 'the power & patronage then it is all right, even though it disfranchises thousands of the people. What consistency! Our 'doctrine is a fair investigation, then let the majority be triumphant. Will the use of the word Democrat, longer deceive the people—are such deeds Democratic. 11.9IRRISIBURG E TIF S. shored state of .llfairs. In order to give our readers a full his tory of the condition of affairs at the seat of Government, we have published every thing relative thereto, and excluded the Presdent's Message. We have commen. cod our Legislative proceedings on the first page, and we earnestly direct the at-' tention of the sober, industrious, and hon est portion of the people to the scenes there related. To the reflecting part of the citizens, we have one word to say. What think you of all this? Are you prepared to see the laws of your country overtnrown by a lawless band of hired bullies, led on by a Iman PAID FOR HIS TREASON out of the NATIONAL TREASURY—a UNI TED STATES OFFICE-HOLDER— .I. J. M'Cahen, from the Philedelphia Custom House/ Whether you are pre pared or not, such are the facts. Nor do they end there, your Senators have been driven from the Hall! and their lives threatened in open day! Yet the assas sin and the purchaser of his bloody hand and knife, boast of their purpose and laugh the laws to scorn. Have our laws become 4.1 i proverb and by word?' I►as the boasted security of our institutions crum bled to the dust? and must a lawless, in furiated mob, usurp the halls of power, and drive your officers from their seats— else force them into obedience to their wicked designs? Forbid it Heaven!! Let every man who loves his country-- her institutions— and her laws—lift up his voice against such mad usurpations fraught with such direful--may be, bloody consequences. Let every voice be raised till its echoes shall be heard above the , blast of the storm, exclaiming "SUS TAIN TIIE LAW S, JUSTICE CLAIMS ITS RE WARD," Those persons who talk of bloodshed— who excite, and sanction the course of any mob—in its works of desolation, and destruction—are traitors to the instiiu tions of their country—Jacobins in heart, and if their bones do not decorate "gibbet irons," the law will loose its victims--and the safe guards of liberty will ere long tumble to the earth--and her temple will become a den of thieves." Need we say that we do not wish to exculpate either party. The law will tell ' who arc the guilty actors in this unholy scheme. Let those laws punish those who are guilty. If assassins, armed with DAGGERS and PISTOLS can drive your legislatures from your halls because they do not like their enactments, where is your security. When that mob discov• ers that some of you have more property than they have--that hand that violated ' one law, and shed blood then—seeks but its time, and your life is the sacrifice— and your burning house, the light by which they devastate yonr fields and granules. When this matter will end, time alone can tell. We trust, that that hand which guides the destinies of Empires, will di rect! our infant, though mighty and glo., rious Republic, through the storm. We regret exceedingly, however to say, that among the number of persons at, Harrisburg, from our county, that none except J. M. Bell Esq., have found leis ure, or felt interest enough to keep us acquainted with the movements of the factionists, or the hopes or fears, of the supporters of law and order. We hope, it may be otherwise, when the storm has subsided. We return our thanks to Mr. Bell for his attention. The alessages. We have received the Presidents Message. It goes all length for the Sub Treasury —notwithstanding, a goodly portion of it proves that one of the "Re ceivers General," has plundered the na tion of more than a million of dollars. We cannot say whether the President intended his notice of Swartrout's defalca• tion, as a practical illustration of the scheme. There has been no Legislature in this .S . tate, of course the tioyernor has denver efl no message.
