but only byjtself." Let such, therefore, es doubt,ll l s it by the record itself. But quare, Master Kickapoo, should, not the commission of a Justice of the Peace who refuses to bow to your iron rod be supereded? Should such conduct be suff ered by one who " was and still is Govern or of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania," as appears by the 23,000 majority, and the affidavit of John Cress:Dell ? The Tariff question. We copy the following paragraph from the' , Watchman" of last week. Uj Who are the friends of Me Tariff ? bir. Ingersoll, a few days since, asked leave to introduce a bill for the purpose of raising revenue, and giving protection to American Manufacturers, and upon the question of granting leave to introduce it, every Whig, pith one or two exceptions, voted NAY.— And yet these men and their supporters claim to be the friends of a Tariff !! Out upon such contemptible trickery—such barefaced hypocrisy!!! The above contains " a story not half told," as its author must very well know. It is fresh in the memory of every one that the Whigs passed two Tariff during the present session— that John Tyler vetoed them —and that the Loco Focus, generally, rejoiced at the late of those bills. After the veto came, Charles J. Ingersoll, who declared he " would have been a Tory had he lived during the Rev olution," asked leave to introduce a lame and objectionable bill, which we are now told was " for the purpose of raising reve nue, and giving protection to American Manufacturers." On the question to grant, leave, only 43 voted in the affirmative, ) including the " Corporal's Guard."-- 1 Now how does it come that Mr. Tory In gersoll's bill received only 4S votes in a House which contains more than 100 Lo eo Foco votes, and these Loco Focos the " true friends of the Tariff?" The hum fug is palpable, and yet the Loco Focus want to make political capital out of the fact that the Whigs would not follow the lead of a 4. TORT !PI But, as our neighbor seems not to know the true doctrine of the Loco Foco party In this State in regard to a Tariff, we will respectfully call his attention to the fol lowing resolution which the Loco Focos in our State Legislature passed through Ste second reading by a vote of 55 to 35, on the 24th of June last:— " Retrolverfigrhat the Legislature of Penn sylvania roe ises the doctrine of laying imposts on the commerce of foreign nations, coming into the United States, sufficient only to defray the ordinary expenses of the gener cl government, and that a Tariff exceeding that amount is oppressive in its effects on the consumer and unproductive of any good to the country." Now, the above resolution, which may be found on the Journal of the House of Representatives, contains the very essence of the Loco Foco doctrine on the subject of a Tariff. They clearly repudiate a Protective Tariff, and recognize no other than one sufficient merely to " defray the ordinary expenses of the general govern ment." If the Loco Pecos wish to turn over to the friends of a Protective Tariff, let them do it honestly and fairly; and we will be glad to see them do so ;but we despise the hypocrisy which would make us believe that they are the " true Friends of the Tariff," when they are in fact its bitterest enemies. The Loco coca Movement. In alluding to the call fur a Working. men'. Convention we mentioned, last week; that we did not believe that the Farmers, Mechanics and Workingmen in this county can again be induced, by de ception, to support the measures of the Loco Foco party, planned for our defeat. I rWe are daily confirmed more strongly that that belief was well founded. The Workingmen's (no.party)" Society," like many a dog, has had its day. The honest portion of our citizens see through the whole scheme, and none but the legitimate Loco Focos belong to that party. Every Loco Foco, however, ruffle shirted dandy, fop, soap-lock, idler, vagabond and all, who have always been members of the Loco Foco party are now workingmen, and compose the head, body and tail of the new party, which professes no creed or principles, has no other ultimate object in view than self aggrandizement, and in- vites all—no matter what their principles —their professions—their practices—their calling--or their standing may be, to come and join with them! It may be that there was reason last year for dissatisfaction at the nominations of our party. We know that such dissat isfaction did exist, and that that was the means of the defeat of a part of the Tick- It. But who will say that there is any cause for such dissatisfaction this year ; er who can point to a man who is dissat isfied and can say one word against the ,whole or any part of the ticket formed by the County Convention on the 10th inst. "The peculiar situation of the times and the oppressive burthens now borne by the laboring population," say the Loco Foco Central Committee," render it advi sable that they should (without distinction of party) take the affairs of Government into their own hands." Now the only men to be elected this fall o ho can in any manner effect these " burthens" either for better or worse, are the members of the Legislature. From among the " laboring population" the Democratic County Con vention have selected JONATHAN MCWIL LIAMS and Blues; BLAIR as candidates for that station. The former is a man who toils daily in his axe factory, and the lat ter is an industrious farmer. Are these not the proper kind of men to represent Huntingdon county! Certainly they are. Why then oppose them! Simply because they are not Loco Focos, and because they will never support the reckless Adminis_ itration that imposed those "oppressive burthens," of which the Central Commit tee speak, upon the shoulders of the " la boring population." This is the grand secret of the opposition. Who, then, will encourage it ? Some may ask why we style those whose names are appended to the call for the Convention the Loco Foco Central Com mittee, when at least one sound, firm and unflinching Whig is numbered among thorn. We will explain. That man was appointed on said Committee without his knowledge or consent--he never signed the call, and has perhaps never seen it.— We believe that he cannot be found op 'posing the ticket formed by our party on the 10th of August. Though a friend to the Workingmen in every sense of the word, he will never assist to delude and humbug them as is now again attempted by the minions of Governor Porter. Our space will not permit us to say any thing further on this subject at present.— More anon. 0::r We learn from the "Perry Free- man" that the Loco Foco Senatorial Con ferees of Perry county have been instruc ted, by the County Convention to support Henry C. Eyre, of Union county, for State Senator. ()::7- ft is hoped that all will read the communication signed A Laborer, which may be found on the fourth page of to day's paper.

As erroneous opinions prevail among the community on the subject of the du ties of Postmasters, we make the following extracts from the instructions of the Post master General of the United States to Postmasters: The law fixes three classes of postage, viz: On letters, on newspapers, and on pamphlets. There are two rates of pamph let postage; the first chargeable on pamph lets that are periodical, and the second on those that are not. In determining the rate of postage on any article, you will always bear in mind that every thing sent in the Mail, which is not either a newspa. per, or a pamphlet of one of the two class es, is to be charged with letter postage. Letter postage to be charged on all handbills, printed or written; prices cur rent, sealed or unsealed ; prospectuses, proposals for new publications, circulars, lottery bills and advertisements, blank forms, deeds, law processes, policies of insurance, and manuscript copy for publi cation. Also on all packets that are closely enveloped and sealed, so that wikat they contain cannot be known. In order that frauds may be readily traced and detected, postmasters must be careful to mark or stamp every transient paper, magazine, or pamphlet sent from their offices. "The union of two true hearts in mar -1 riage is a scene which art decorates with the most splendid and imposing works of her hands, innocent curiosity flocks to it as a marvel and a show, the Aral senti ments of mankind sanction it, religion blesses it. Christ himself once hallowed it with his presence, and God adds to it the choicest smiles of his providence."-- Burnap. 0 01211ZUNIC.A.TIONO. Our Senator. FRIEND CREMER I observe in your pa• per of last week, a communication signed "Justice," written undoubtedly to further the claims of Perry county to the next Senator. Now I can only say in the outset, that I do not care from which coun ty in the district the candidate is taken ; yet I must protest against the position assumed by "Justice." He would lead the reader to infer that every county com posing this Senatorial district except Perry ha a had a member of the Senate since the district has been in its present shape.— Such is not the fact. Truth and Justice cannot well be separated, and truth says that McCulloch, whom "Justice" gives as the Senator of Mifflin, was elected, and his term of service had expired before the apportionment of the State into the pres ent Senatorial district; so that Perry can not urge her claims as prior to Mifflin.— Nor do I wish it understood that I pro pose thrusting the claims of any one upon our friends, as the only precursor of suc cess. Neither men nor their locality can in dace me to press the claims of any one; any issue of that kind will tend only to engender disaffection and unkind feelings. ' I hope every writer will place the question on the snore important ground. The im portance of success at this time— and of success with some man, whose principles are known and openly avowed—who in truth is opposed to the present oppressive and unequal taxation--the squandering of the public money—the increase of officers on our public woi ks—and is in favor of a just Apportionment Bill, and the strut accountability of oflicial agents—who is an open advocate of a Protective Tariff, and a National Institution to give perma nency and regularity to our currency— and who is in favor of the distribution of the proceeds of the Public Lands among the States. If such a man be selected, I care not where he lives—whether in Per ry, Huntingdon, Mifflin, Juniata or Union --HE MUST BE ELECTED. Let no paltry notions of his place of birth—or where he may call home, influence any man who values his principles. Let our object as a people be more noble than such as will be gaged by county pride. Tli a motto of your paper, " One country, one constitution, one destiny,"—should be the guide of every American Freeman. Local questions have proved the rock on which the people have too often seeg a piefi Mopes shipwrecked—and ;any portion views actua t ! l Mir f oWn lolly. !F 6 ,lciil they be the victims In conclusion, I trust that our confer ees will meet, and among all the many good men they may have before them, they will select that man who will prove most efficient and faithful in the support of such measures as are now known to be the only ones which can bring us out of trouble. LEONIDAS, Huntingdon, Aug. 29th 1842. To the Senatorial Conferees. MR. CREMER • I am right glad to see a correspondent in your paper giving his views and wishes upon the subject of our nest Senator. It is the true republican plan, and I should like to see it become general. I differ however from " Justice" as to the claims of the counties. Mifflin county has not had a Senator since she has formed a part of this district. II that gives any claim, she at least possesses the same as Perry; and among her citizens there is one whose merits I should like to have brought before the conference. I allude to SIIEM ZOOK. Mr. Zook is a plain, unpretending, practical man, pos. sessed of a sound and discriminating mind, whose knowledge of the situation of our affairs of governinent, and whose practical knowledge of their unturtunate effects upon the farming interest, cannot but ren der him a useful and efficient member of our State Senate. By giving the above an insertion you will oblige a friend to the cause of the people. HUNTINGDON. 'heeling Mouse • FOR SALE.

" Leaves have their time to fall, And flowers to wither at the north wind's' breath, And stars to set—but all Thou bast, all seasons for thine own, oh! death." How sensitively do the words of the po etess touch the heart, as we notice this victim to that insatiate archer. But a few days have passed, since the cheerful eye and happy smile of the deceased gladdened the gay cir cle of her friends, at her own bridal. Alas! how changed! Ere her budding hopes had blossomed, the garlands of the bride gave place to the habiliments of the tomb—the hopes of life to the realities of death—and the laugh of joy to the sigh and tear of mourning. Throughout a lingering illness, with christian meekness and resignation she said, "not my will but Thine be dune." Confident in the redeeming blood of the Saviour, she left the cares of this world, calmly relying on the hope set before us. As she lived beloved, she has (lied mourned by a large circle of companions and friends. .. Go, all undimmed, in thy glory go! Young and crowned bride of death; Take hence to heaven Thy holy thoughts and bright, And soaring hopes, that were not given For the touch of mortal blight! Might we follow in thy track.
