By the County Committee David Blair Chairman. July 22nd 1840. Our article to Farmers and Mechanics, together with much interesting variety, has been driven out by the great press of advertisements. How Vers Strange The Loco Fucos have got a letter they say from Jackson, saying, that, this erec- ' ting of Log Cabins is very disreputable, and calculated to gull thu people. Has "old Hickory" forgot the "Hickory pole raisings" of former days— or is he willing to admit that they were to gull the people. Changes, The Loco Fix° papers are busy repor ting the names of changes for Van Buren. Some they enumerate have been bought by otlice•—others by promises, and some they enumerate have not changed at all. If there is any thing in all this, we can give them names by the score, who have left the hard times and joined the hard cider boys. But as it is, we wilrjust hint at a whole State or two, that have kicked oil' the shackles and are now ranked a mong the honest and true. New York has thrice recorded her vote against her Kinderhook politician—and Virginia has done the same within the few 'last mouths, Will these two changes Bat off against Row . an and tireasy Bob? 0:71. 0.

FOR MR JOURNAL. 4 1111ard Cider & Log Cabins.” MR. EDITOR,-.-_ It seems the Loco Focos are getting sick at the sight of log cabins and hard cider. The other day my at. tention was called to an article bearing the above caption in the Venango (Loco Foco) Democrat, which, like all the other articles contained in the said paper, was copied from Amos Kendall's Globe. As might be expected, the writer of the arti cle referred to, calls the log cabin and hard cider eta/twine& a "miserable hum bug" and 'a trick of the ARISTOCRACY to gull the people, and catch their votes." Us then adds, that neither the principle nor the practice have the merit of novelty; and had he wished to prove this latter as sertou, all that would have been necessa• ray for Win to do, would have been to re fer to the stately hickory poles that were erected in every part of the land in the days of Jackson glory; and to the hicko• ry leaves th a t d.ecorated the hats of the devotees of the "o3d chief " at their cele brations and festival's; and the huge shi lalahs or hickory coos in the hands of those who %routed to show their devotion to "old hickory." Ti.teste scenes are yet fresh in the memories of most of the Globe readers; and a mere reference to them would have been sullicievot to prove that the principle and practice of popular en. thusiasm for revered chiefs is no novelty at this day. But the writer hurried over that part of his article, And went on to lecture on humbuggery— a science..., by the bye, which he and the administration to which he belongs, understanA to perfec tion. The Globe traces the origin of fire hare) ! awe their deluded followers. Sentiments cider and lug cabin "humbug,g' to John tbat were expressed, or which the Globe Adams' Cunningham letters. l'oluips (for this is the only authority 1 know)says the reader will here stop short in ast en were expressed by John Adams more than ishment at what I have asserted, And half a century ago, are now heralded to well he may, for it is certainly a most as- Globe to make a I the "wirole world," and clothed with as tonishing thing for the them the J errch importance as if they had fallen discovery like this—and still more eaten , , r e m the lips of a prophet. It is said, kiting to publish it to the "whole wer "" " that in speaking of the , aristocracy, Adams But see the words as the Globe spreads caller ; rfsern "powerful and craf them before the people, that is, the Loco ty uncle rneiners, in whom. nature shows Foco party. "In his CUNNINGHAM! LEI , TEAS he (John Adams) says that when il- itself so conepletely depraved, as to near lustrous families fall into decay, and ly approach to an equal mixture of bru tality and devil:ant:" It.is further charged loose political power, they will turn Dem. that Mr. Adams riec!atvct that the wealthy aortas and court the lowest of the people families would "as certainly rule the with an ardor, an art, a skill, and conse, country in a single Dernocr.a ty. or a Do . quently a success which no vulgar Arno mocracy by representative, as i le is hered ma can attain. Here we find the origin nary aristocracy or monarchy,"-=that of the hard cider and lrg cabin humbug. „ the continuation of power will be aricer it is derived from the r , ry head of the old tain, but it will be accomplished by 'eor- Federal party." Reader, this is what the ruption, which is worse than a continua- Globe says, and really it is not so very astonishing after all, when you consider bon by birth, and if corruption cannot that the same paper said some few y eflect the continuation, sedition and rebel ago that "in seven months bank rugs - ewairlsl lion will be resorted to : for a degraded, i ~,c r op, and illustrious family, would at any be abolishcd"—"that t gold would 81 : -I.- ime annihilate heaven and earth, it they through the intestiocs of every man's lung could„ rather than fail in carrying its silken purse"—and "that the 'better cur -oint.” rency' would flow up all our rivers, and point. jingle in all our valleys," &c. Now, suppose the question whether Well may the Globe and the whole Adams did or did not utter these senti ments, thrown aside, or admitted; and office holders' par ty be sick and tired of let us proceed to examine how they have the phrase of ..log cabins and hard cider '•" thus far held good. l'he following are not indeed because it originated as the facts known to every one, and substan- Globe would fain have it appear. Its or- , tiated by history. John Adams succeed gin is similar to that of "it ankee Doodle.' ed the great Washington, and was of the When the British first uttered that in same politics as bra predecessor. The contempt and as a slur on our revolutions Federal party had been in power but any fathers, little did they think that the twelve years when the Democratic party Americans would snatch it up and adopt became the strongest ; and at that period ' as one of the most significant phrases in there was a small effort made to continue their national vocabulary. Aud when a (correspondent of a Baltimore paper wrote, after the nominations of President and Vice President at Harrisburg were made, announcing that the National Convention had nominated what he chose to ter% "It mister Hairrison "—and added, " GIVE urM A BARREL or HARD CIDER AND SLTTLt A PENSION OF TWO THOUSAND A YEAR, AND OUR WORD FOR Fr, UN WILL SPEND THE REMAINDER OF 1118 DAYS CON TENTED IN A LOG CABIN, "—w•lten thus was written and published, little did its author think, that like "Yankee Duo- dle," it would fill all America, and be the watchword of the people in their struggle to overcome the office holders at Wash tngton. The Globe pretends not to know any thing of the true derivation of "log cabin and hard cider," awl no doubt se- cretly curses the wretch who told the horrid truth that General Harrison leads an humble, retired life, and has not set all his afieetions on the pageantry of pow . er, and the splendor of the White House at Washington. The veritable Globe ! thinks the display of barrels and the erection of log cabins all over the coon-, try, and the exhibition of miniature log t cabins is only an appeal to the basest pas t sions of the "lowest of the people," and "a scandalous attempt to seduce the young and inconsiderate,"—and then comes the insinuation that the opponents of Van flu ren and his host of Ake holders indulge in “the free use of hard cider, that is strong drink, in all their conventions and Ipublie meetings." There is no necessity for saying any thing else about this, than that it is worthy of being placed on the (catalogue of slanders with which the Lo. co Foco papers teets at the present day. General Harrison is objectionable to the Globe because he is the son of a distin guished man, and introduced into public life by the influence of his lather, who was one cf that patriotic band who on the 4th of July 1776 signed the Declaration of . Independence, and pledged his life, his fortune, and his sacred honor to maintain that im►noi tal charter of independence. Indeed ho is objectionable to Amos Ken dall and his compeers in all shapes, in ,every sense: he is objectionable because he is rich—because he is poor—because lie is distinguished—because he is obscuro —because he is a coward—and because he is a brave General. They csnnot be pleased in any way—Mr. Van Buren is the only man in the country that is any thing like fit to be President. It was not my intention, Mr. Editor, when I took up my pen to write, to tax your columns with a lengthy article ; but I would ask your indulgence and the at tention of your.readers while' I review another feature of the article under con sideration. It seems that since the cry of bank aris: tocracy and the golden promises of ' the Atltninistratton have lost nearly all their virtue, the grave of John Adams must be' robbed of its cold tenant, for the Admin istration have taken it into their heads tJ►at with him they can terrify and keep ►n power, but without success. From the ,election of Jefferson in 1800 down to 1825 the Democratic party were in pow er. Then, owing to diversity of of opin. ion or some other cause, the people could not agree on any one for President, and the election went to the House of Rep resentatives, where the office was confer • red on John Quincy Adams. At the end cf one presidential term there was another change of Administration. General son, at the head of a new party, was elec. ted President, and power was yielded in• to his hands cheerfully—there not belt); the least shadow of an attempt made 1• continue the power either by corruption ledilton or rebellions. There has been nc change of Administration since 1829 but if I mistake not the signs of the time there will be a change in 1841, when judging from the desperation that Anne Kendall and his cohorts already man ' fest, we may expect to see "the degrr dell, disappointed, rich, and illustrim family" resort to SEDITION and none! LION, and be ready to "annihilate heave and earth" to effect the "continuation power." A reference is also made to the la fraud in New Jersey, and to the rebelli. in Pennsylvania in December 1838. No. we happen to know as much or mu about this latter disgraceful outrage th
