    Atarder and Lynching at the
a est
We copy from the Chicago American
the following particulars respecting the
murder of Mr. Campbell, an Rock River,
and we append to it a letter •vhich relates
the occurrences that subsequently took
place;
The Wick River region has been long
molested by a band of horse thieves, who
were continuilly depredating on property
and eluding justice by changes of venue,
perjury, and juries composed in part of
some of their number. A portion of the
citizens, among whom was Mr. Campbell,
a respectable citizen, at length exaspera
ted, formed themselves into a company
to ferret out the thieves and protect then
property. In pursuance of this determi
nation, they called on several individuals
and informed them, that they suspected
them of harboring thieves, or being in sonic
way concerned in their depredations. One
Individual, in particular, they requested
to leave the country in a few days, or
they would tear down his house—which,
threat, on his refusal, they put in execu
lion. The Driskells were amone ' the
suspected number, were requested to
leave. David Driskell was afterwards
heard to say that he would not go before
leaving his mark on some ten individuals,
mentioning Mr. Campbell, the deceased,
amone ' the number.
On Sunday Mr Campbell told his fami
ly of his apprehensions when going to
church and throughout the day. In the
evening, when going out to look at his
premises before retiring, his boy preceding
him to the gate, two men rose up from the
weeds, and representing themselves as
bewildered strangers, asked the boy the
direction to a certain place in the vicinity.'
While Mr. Campbell was giving the di
rections, one of the men, probably recog,
nizing his voice, rose up and shot him.
His wife and daughter came out and
caught him while falling; and the villain,
who was not clearly recognized, stood for
a moment until he thought his object was
seeurely effected, and then made his es
cape. The citizens did not get together
to make pursuit until next morning. The
tracks of the two men were apparently
followed to where another individual had
been standing with three horses, and
thence the people started in pursuit of the
suspected
This occurrence has largely increased
the number of the company, by the addi
tion of respectable individuals. who are
determined to defend their property and
avenge their wrongs. So great and just
is the indignation against this crowning
and damning act of horse thieves, that we
should not be surprised to hear; that that
heretofore peaceable section of country
had been the scene where Judge Lynch
had held, over many individuals , hts 'sum
mary tribunal.
The following letter, copied from the
Chicago American of a later date, states
the occurrences which followed the mur
der and arrest mentioned above:
Belvidere, 33th June, 1811.
"Since Sunday last, the good people
have been under a most violent excite
ment, on account of the repetition of the
Belvidere trage.fsy, rumors of which
doubtless have reached you ere this time.
However, that you may know what to re
ly on as truth, 1 will give you a
of what I have been able to gather from
eve witnesses and participators in these
most h;gh handed sail alarming atrocities.
—For let the emergencies be what they
may, all lawless violence resulting in
bloodshed or death, are alarming in any
community, particularly in one comprised
of eastern and northern men. The facts
in this case are these. The country be
low this and north of the Illinoist river,
has been for a long time, and is now in
fested with a gang of black legs, counter
feiters, horse thieves and pirates, and the
good people have found our law., or at
least the administration of them entirely
inadequ tte to the protection of their pro
perty ; consequently they have been forc
ed to form themselves into "volunteer
companies, and anti horse thieves socie
ties." One was formed about 20 miles
below this, at Washington grove. Mr.
Campbell was actively tngaged in getting
it up, On Sunday night last, two of the
Driskells, notorious through this region
as ring-leaders and harborers of all sorts
of villains—rode up to Campbell's house
and asked his son if his father was at home;
he called his fattier to the door, when the
Driskells shot him dead, and fled. The
volunteer companies of De Kalb and N in
nebago counties, immediately collected
and went in search of the Driskells. On
Tuesday they caught the old man and one
of his sons—tried them by Lynch law and
was convinced that they were the cause
if not the perpetrators of the atrocious
murder of Mr. Campbell. They sen
tenced them to immediate death, then
placed the old man ten rods off, and bid
him prepare for death, giving him 5 min
utes—when the time was up about 50
balls went through him. The son was
then served in the same manner—both
devils proving game—neither making any
disclosures, more than saying that anoth
er son of Driskell killed Campbell. The
company are now pursuing this other
Driskell, who has cut stick with a confed
ate. 8500 reward is offered for his head.
High handed and revolting as this sum
mary mode of proceeding seems to be,
this, nevertheless, absolutely necessary,
and receives the commendation of every
individual who is at all acquainted with
the facts. 11 a man refuses to join these
companies, he is put down at once with
the horse thieves.

The "Slandered and Vi!Mien"
By E. V Everhart. David R. Porter,—
The slandered and villUfed candidate of the
Democracy in 1838—now their first choice;
he has been tried and not found wanting.
Toast at the Porter supper July 3d.
We have long since came to the con•
elusion, that no man, in his senses, could
be a citizen of our county, a single month,
and not, by a little enquiry, learn, what'
was the character of the present gov
ernor of Pennsylvania ; and we hove
no hesitation lb saying, that there is nw
one man in the county, who has watched
his career for twenty years, but, will at
once, in his own /heart, admit, that we
have long since painted Ins character in
its proper colors.
We had deemed it so well understood,
t hat we saw no necessity to reiterate char
ges which we have made, and proven, a.
Igainst Mr. Porter. Under the present
circumstances we feel called upon to brief.
ly lay out the cause of our opposition to
David R. Porter in 1838, and why we con
tinue it in 1840.
Our neighbor of the "[Nachman," has
at length, in the above toast, broken the
ground, and, we presume, courts an op
portunity to say that the toles told of qtr.
Porter, are no longer uttered by his "slan
derers" of '3B; or, perhaps, lie may have
been kept so long in the dark that he
'cannot eveh suppose that his patron is so
deeply steeped in depravity, as to be'
what we really can prove him; and we
feel called upon to enlighten him a little
in this respect.
You have pronounced Mr. Porter a
"slandered and villifed" man, in the
'very town, where, what you please to call
slanders , first originated—where the
knowledge and history of that man's mis- 1
deeds are in the mouths of the children—
where that dread oath was taken which
made him a FRAUDULENT INSOL•
'VENT; and now, we propose to lay the
history of his villianies, once more, before
the people, that this neighbor of ours shall
not have occasion to say that the "slan
ders" are no longer believed.
That is not slander which is true, nor
do we think a man is villified unless the
charges which are made to render hiin vile
in the eyes of others, are false.
Then, we must be allowed to ask, how
was David R. Porter slandered and &li
fted ? and let the issue be fairly met.
We told the tale that David R. Porter
secreted some of his property, before
he took the Insolvent's Oath, and then re
took the same after his release. 11 e told l i
it —rr IS TRUE—WE CAN PROVE IT !
and was this one of the "slanders !" We
now state it distinctly, that David R. Pot
ter did put property out of his hands, and
did, in court, swear he had not done so,
and he did, again, tale possession of that
I very same property. Our legal friend,
we presume, is well enough acquainted
with the language of that oath, to know,
that the man who does au is a willful and
del6erate PERJURER—an urnitigated
villian who, for the paltry dross, called
gold, will call on the Searcher of all hearts
to attest the truth, as he shall answer to
Him when that dread trump shall sound,
and then tells a guilty damning lie. We
~a i d in '39 that l)avid R. Porter had done
; 0 ! We say it again—we can prove it!
'hat one of the slanders 7
e charged this 11 r. Porter wi It re-1
tying to pay debts which had been con
tacted, previous to his insolvency, al.
•hough, now wealthy ; and, on a certain
occasion, a suit was brought by the heirs
if Evan Crain, dec'd, to recover the mo•
icy earned by hard work by their father,
‘ , Vhen Mr. Porter, before the arbitrators,
succeeded in obtaining an award, because
he Crains could not find Patton and Par-1
er's books, there was a general exulta
ion among his friends, and the Crains
, were called the dupes of others, and Mr,
"orter was made out an "injured
.inno•
cent." But the Messrs. Crains were not
easily satisfied —they found out where
he books were, and they appealed from
hat award, and the suit, subsequently,
••ante up otter he was elected Governor.
!lien this dignified and limiest man Porter
dead the STATUE OF LIMITATIONS
—in fact, admitting that he could escape
the payment in no other way than to take
advantage of that lair, and say, the debt
was too old to pay. What we told of
this case in '3B, was true, and the whole
is now true. Is this "slandering and nth
'ying ? " It is a matter of Record !
Are our Court records slanderers ?
Anil we told the history of Campbell's '
irial, after Porter's election, when he
Irotight his brother Jim up to draw ae
indictment, and Mr. Barton to lampoon
Campbell and eulogize himself ; when he
stood on the stand as a v iiness for hours,
tnd swore up to the mark. of his own hon•
esty; and that then, twelve men of this
county could not believe him against the
PROOFS of cutur there produced.
We told the damning fact, that, on that
trial, this same honest man, thrum ; h his
Counsel, would not the prools, that he
had robbed his creditors by Fraudulent
Insolvency, be introduced, where if they
had been false, lie could have shown it ;
and we said then, and we say now 111 F.
DARE NOT let them undergo a jndi .
cial investigation ; and nee these, sir,
what you deem the slanders against Da
vid R, Porter? We said that be was pro.
thonotary twelve years, and that the Sche
dole of his property and debts was mint in
the office when he lelt it, and is(' said then
and we say again, that David R. Porter
was the only human being on earth who
was interested in its destruction. Per
haps you call this one of the slanders
Perhaps,'sir, we hare enumerated II I,
of the leading "slanders" tiltshich y
lode. We tell you, sir, :mil we -tic,
inure tell the public, that they are the
pure immaculate truth, and we have posted
them in letters cf flame on the forehead
of your "slandered and vilified" candi
;late, and they ia ill ',main there as Ion:;
as life shall last. They will clitig around
his memory, and remain the inonu
went of his infamy, and Pennsylvania's
shame.
It might have answered fur any one to
have called these things slanders anv
where but here. Here we know him; and
it is not in accordance with our notions
of justice, to permit an insinuation to a
rise here, that David R. Porter is now, o r
over was an honest man, IV hen the Re
cords of our court are msToßtEs OF
HIS CRIMES. Nor shall we permit
any one to assert that truth is slander,
and the zirculation of a tact is to villily
his character.
To those who so much dislike to see
private character a subject of discussion,
we have but one word to say. Many, iv,
suppose, itivp;in that the,t, things are
but the heated venom of party spleen.
and are lead to think that all tales art
bred in the hot bed of politics; conse
quently, look upon all this as attacking a
man's private character.
Now, in all candor, we ask, ought the
people of this or any other state—ought
ary honest man —ought any christian, sup.
port a man for any office whose morals
are thus tainted with crime, and who
has given no evidence of repentence?—
We, for one, will never allow a man of
such character to assume the seat as a ru•
ler of Freemen, until we have performed
what we think is our duty.
Does any man suppose that scores of
THIEVESand MGM! AYMEN would
have been released from our prison cells'
if there had been a man at the head of the
State "who feated God and eschewed
evil." Yet such things are of daily oc•
ccrrence now. The detected horse thief;
now, walks our highways with a previous
pardon of Porter's in his pocket; and ra.
pine and murder riot on unconcerned in
their scenes of blood and brat dity, know.
ing, that some of their kindred spirits
have been saved from the chain and cell
t or the prison by the pardoning power of
!one who evinces a fellow feeling for them,
If, then, you cannot listen to the truth
about a man who is a candidate for exe
cutive power, we say at once, you are unfit
for Freemen, and the day may not be fat
distant,when that power, supported by thi
, mock morality will rule with a rod of
iron, when the gag and the chain will br
the portion of him who shall dare eall an
executive knave by his true name.
Ile have done, and if our language
shall seem harsh, let it be borne in mind
that it is the truth which pierces, and it is
the truth which is the harshest. To our
neighbor, we will, in kindness say, our
"slanders" we can defend, and he will
find it difficult to make it appear that we
hove ever "slandered and villifed" Mr.
Porter while the proofs of his guilt remain.
The pardoning' Power.
The consetpences attending the con
tinued use of the pardoning power, can
easily be understood when we state tha t
Rox, who was tried and convicted for
manslaughter, was pardoned by Gov. Por
' ter, and in less than one year he killed
another man in the same way.
The Miners Journal " notices a simi•
lar case, or at least one which tends to
prove the bail effects of such a prom iscu •
nun pardoning of thieves and villains.
Some wretch by the name of M'Laughliti,
has been arrested and is now in jail, for
a brutish outrage on the person of a young
lady in Port Carbon—The Journal"
says this is the second attempt of the same
kind in the neighborhood, since the par.
don by Gov. Porter, of the wretch who
was recently convicted for the same crime,
and sentenced to ten yebra imprisonment
o the penitentiary.
S! , all a civilized community—at large
submit to such things I Shull crime be al.
lowed to walk abroad at noonday, and
there tie no power to stay it. !four courts
are too severe, let them he altered, but in
he name of virtue, we protest against this
abuse of the pardoning power. In some
of ihe states this crime is punished with
death. Yet here is a man sentenced for
ten years,—and is pardoned in one—Can
any one wonder that crime increases in
our state.
The System :
Our opponents have organized a coin
ilete for the present campaign, and
'it is cai ried out with a steady unwavering
tis a system of falsehood. You
:ardly take upapaper, that you
;.• not •,e attempts to show that changes
ire every where taking place, in favor of
Porter. They told the tale so much about
the Tippecanoe clubs of Dauphin county,
having openly declared themselves for
Davy R. that they really begin to think It
is true•
There is but one answer to all this,
Let every man look carefully among his
own neighbors, and see whether he does
not see the change the other way—see
how many who voted for Porter in , s 8
that now say the " Books were in the gar
ret" and they can support him no longer .
Any man who will do so, will be convinc.
ed that their tales are manufactured out
of the raw meterial, and only intended for
other places than where the scenes are
located.
Cannot some of the Loco Eoco papers,
get out a good story aLout the changes in
Ifuntingdon county, it would have an ex,
cPllent effect if you wild get any body to
believe it.
McLeod Case.
The court of New •York, before which
N4cLeod's case was to be heard, has given
an opinion adverse to the release of that
worthy, and he is remanded back to the
Jail of Oneida county, to take his trial be
fore a jury. It is more than probable that
the case may be taken up to the court of
Er r ors, and in the event of that court, at•
firming the present judgment, to the su
preme court of the United States•
Now what will Mr. Fox the British
minister do—will he dem and his papers,
and return home, or will he wait until the
whole matter is settled according to law.
ff • is we presume satisfied, that his idle
demand of the immediate release of Mc•
Lend, will not frighten, any of our courts
from their proper duty.
It is said that McLeod is anxious to
have the case taken at once to a jury trial,
Oz:rWe publish this week the remarks
made by Rev Mr. Crownover, at the Me
chanics celebiation. We regretted ex
ceedingly, that we could not have been
furnished with a copy for our last. The
many duties devolving on him, however
preclued the pos3ibility of his furnishing
them sooner.

JOHN WHITTAKER.
Communicaf,d.
Ma. EDITOR. —The sabbath schools of
the Methodist Episcopal and Fresbyterian
churches, joined together in celebrating
the day of indepentlencl in the following
manner.
A committe of arrangemen t havingbeen
previously appointed by each of the schools
they conferred together, and after having
appointed Mr. Thomas Burchnell Chief
marshal, agreed upon the or der of exec•
cities for the day. Each school met in its
own church at 9 o'clock, and united to..
getter at the Methodist church at 10
o'clock, where the procession was formed
by the marshal according to previous ar
rangement, composed of scimitars, teach
ers parons and many of the citizens, pre
ceded by the Jefferson Band. After
which it moved to the beautiful grove at
the Cypress Cottage, about half a mile
from town, where scats and stands h tl
been prepared for the schools, the speak
ors and the band. A slight shower inter
rupted the exricises for a short time, dur
ing which the ladies and children obtained
a shelter in the cottage, but the rain in a
short time cleared off, and we were soon
out again, and found that we hail received
a benefit rather than an injury from the
"cool refreshing shower." After a hymn
sung by the children, the reading of the
Declaration of Independence and music
by the hand, an excellent discourse was
delivered by the Rev. J. Monroe, a part
of which was addressed particularly to
the parents, advising them to encourage
sabbath school institutions by all the
means they possessed, showing also the
beneficial results which would accrue to
themselves their children and the rising
generation in general.
An a'ldtess was to have been delivered by
the Rev. Messrs Peebles and Mills; but
some of the ladies thought it best to dis
continue the exercrises on account of the'
dampness of the grass. An abundance of.
refreshments were served around, con
sisting of cold ham, chipped beef, bread
and butter, and cakes by the bushel, of
which about four hundred persons partook.
For drink, we had lemonade and table
beer. The children carried Drautiful and
appropriate banners. At the head of
each school was a banner with the name•
of the school which follow,l inscribed up
on it. Temperance Wieners followed; one,
for the "Juvenile Tempi-rance society of
the Methodist Episcopal Church," lead Itt
scribed upon it, "Temperance, the Guard
of Youth—the Support of Age. One car
ried by the Presbyter:an School, had foi
its motto, "Temperance—we cone to the
Rescue. Others followed, one of which,
a beautiful white banner trimmed
laze and surmounted by a green wreath.
was carried by a little boy of the Metho
dist School, and had inscribed upon it
"Suffer LittleChildien to come unto me.".
After the exercises wore closed the pro-I
cession was again formed and returned t.
town. Ire were dismissed in the stree.
after singing the doxology—
Praise God from whom all blessings flow,
Praise Him all creatures here below,
Praise Him above ye heavenly host,
Praise father son and Holy Ghost.
FASHION—Fa.hion is a poor voca
tion. Its creed, that idleness is a privi
lege and work a disgrace, is among the
deadliest errors. Without depth of
thought, or earnestness of feeling, or
strength ot purpose, living on unioal lire
sacrificing subst,ni e to sl ow , rulmituting
the factitious for the natural, mistaking
a crowd for society, findiiig it, chief plea
sure in ridiculing and exhausting its inge
nuity in expedients for killing time, fashion
is among the last influences under which a
human being who respects himself, who
comprehends the great end of lile, would
desire to be placed —Charming.
