    The Congressmen at Phila
delphia.
On Thursday last the Whigs of Phila
delphia city and county received the Whig
members of Congress, while on their way
home, with a public display of their regard
and approbation. A committee had been
previously appointed to invite them. They
landed at the Dock street wharf - , where
the members were seated in carriages fur•
nished fur the occasion by the citizens,
and a line of procession formed, under
the command of mounted marshals; and
from thence the procession proceeded to
the Museum, where the audience were
called to order. John Sergeant then well
corned the Congressmen in the name of,
the W higs of the city and county of Phil- .
adelphia, in a brief but appropriate speech.
An address was next delivered by Mr.
McKENNaN, member from Washington
county, after which the meeting adjourned. l
In the evening the meeting was again
called, in front of the Exchange, where an
immense Cross d gathered. Here resolu•
lions were adopted, and addresses deliv
ered by a number of the Congressmen un
til,
a late hour.
The U.S. Gazette says : " Philadelphia
has seen no such demonstration of Whig
strength, and Whig determination, as she The Locofocos in some of the
saw on Thursday. And it is silly in any counties seem to disregard the veto Tim
one to attempt to conceal the truth, that spective, and nominate candidates for
the proceedings of the day and evening Congress
struck fear into the hearts of the Locofo
cos,"
Loco Foco Central Commit-
tee.
In justice to Mr. Green, we have era
sed his name from the call for the Loco
Foco Convention at Alexandria.
Sometime about the first of May last,
Mr. McFarlane also declined being one of
the Central Committee of the pseudo'
Workingtnen's party in this county. If,
we understood his letter to the Editor of
the Lewistown Gazette aright, he declined
because his principles would not permit
him to support a PROTECTIVE TARIFF, a,
measure which the resolutions of the meet.'
ing which appointed the Committee seem
ed to favor. But as Mr. McFarlane is a
faithful Anti-Tariff Loco Fuco, and may
now have his name to the call "by order,"
we shall not disturb it unless desired by
him to do so.
Boy Killed.
On Saturday last, a boy who lived with
Mr. James Leonard, in Barree township,
came to his death in the following man
ner:--While turning cattle into pasture,
he took the bridle oft the horse he had been
riding, and struck him with it, when
he was kicked in the abdomen, causing
his death in a few minutes.
Adjournment of Congress.
Congress adjourned on Wednesday
last, at 2 o'clock P. M., after having pass
ed the Distribution Bill as a measure in•
dependent of the Tariff: It is expected
that the President will veto the Distribu
tion Bill as a matter of course.
General S. Miles Green.
This gentleman, as will be seen by his)
letter published in another part of to•day's'
Journal, declines being one of the Central
Committee to humbug the WorkingmeH
ut this county. The letter itself will,
command the attention of the public, and
it is unnecessary on our part to commend
it specially to them. We know that Gen.
GREEN is friendly to the Workingmen,)
and at all times ready to do all in his pow.
er to promote their true interests. And
the Workingmen who are acquainted with
him, and they are thousands, will know
how to appreciate his opinions. For our
part, we are pleased with the manner in
which he treats the subject.

M«. C REMER
Dear Sir—[ observe that
a " Workingmen's" Convention is called
to meet at Alexandria on the 10th inst.,
and that my name is appended to the call,
as one of the " county committee." lam
constrained to say, that my name has
been used without my knowledge or con
sent,-1 have never been advised of, or
consulted in. this matter at any time.
But, whilst I thus disavow having had
any participation in getting up this "Work
ingmen's society" in this county, I am
free to say that I am riot inimical to the
best interests of the " Workingmen" in
/his, or any other county, There are
thousands who will bear testimony to my
sincerity in this declaration. In Centre,
my native county, I am known as the de.
scendant of a Manufacturer, and one who
through a long life, was ever warmly and
strongly attached to the interests of the
" Workingmen." In this county, my
actions must speak for themselves.
I consider the interests, and the policy
lof the Manufacturer, the Mechanic, and
the " Workingman," so closely identified,
that they cannot be separated, without in
jury and prejudice to all. There is a re
ciprocity of interest existing amongst us,
that the meanest capacity can discover at
the first blush. But I need not dilate on
this point. Politically speaking, lam not
a sql °Hangman"! ! ! Who are the prom
inent political Workinginen I Look at
the record! Examine the acts of these
wire workers: Our good citizens have
been once caught, and have been taught a
lesson I hope they will not soon forget,—
" a burnt child dreads the fire:"
What is the object of calling this pro
posed "Workingmen's" Convention?—
The Loco Focos (or Democrats, as they
,style themselves,) have held their meeting,
preparatory to the fall -kctiong, The
Whigs have had their deleg ate meeting
also, and put in nomination aTicket whi:h
'is certainly unexceptionable. They are
all good men and true. What more is
required 1 unless it is to raise an opposi
tion to both the nominations, or arrange
ments, made by the Whigs and Loco Fo
cos ? The Whigs in this county can have
no opposition—they are too strong, both
in principle and numerically. The Locos
cannot oiler an opposition, unless aided by
a third, or " Workingmen's Society."—
Honest Mechanics—Laboi ers —Farmers,
—Workingmen, look to this! May you'
not be deceived, and induced to palsy the,
hand that is extended to aid you?
What is the policy of your Whig breth•
ren ? Are they not all 7'ariff men,—Tar
ill Protection—Tariff for Revenue?- 1
Are they not in favor of some National
Institution to regulate our currency?--
whether it be called a" National Bank," a
" Fiscal Agent," or a"Spinning Ginney"/
,It matters not, so that it gives us a curren-
'cy similar to what we had before hostilities
began against the old U. S. Bank. Are
the Whigs not opposed to the odious shin
plaster currency of the present clay? &re
they not opposed to a reduction of wages
to the starvation system of ten cents a day?
Most truly they are. What more, then,
let me repeat, do we want? But lam
spinning out this declination of being one
of the Workingmen's" committee, with
out my own consent, too long. All I would
add is, that I consider the policy of the
Whigs, honestly carried out, that policy
which alone can save our country from
ruin. Let a third party beware how they
oppose it.

MR. EDI rTOR
The last Watchman
says The indefatigable exertions of
cur Supervisor, 111 r. Woods, and the men
employed deserve all praise for the speedy
manner" in which the break immediately
above our borough was repaired.
Now, allow me just to say, through the
(Journal, that if any praise is due any where
it is to MR. BLACK and the. laborers, and
not the Supervisor, who was absent and
did not get near the break until just as it
was mended.
JUSTICE.
Huntingdon, Sep. 6, 1842.
Taxation and Labor.
The Globe, in noticing the discussion
upon the Tariff Bill, and its final passage
in the Senate on Saturday, thus exclaims
touching the duties :
" Was there ever a country redeemed
from pecuniary embarrassment by increas
ing the taxes on the people? Can any
sophistry disguise the absurdity of such a
proposition?"
. Certainly there was. The 'United li
States—this very country, was redeemed
from pecuniary embarrassments, from the
very iegislation which the Globe calls an
imposition of taxes the protection of
home industry. The sophistry consists
in arguments from the false data of the
Globe. And the working men of the coun
try, who will find employment should the
Revenue Bill become a law, will settle the
question with the Globe whether it is bet
ter to be idle without taxation, or to be
profitably industrious with it. The kind
of taxation which the Globe thinks so very
ruinous, is very like the collateral biller
itance tax, which the heir, when he paid
five pounds to get ten thousand tnoupt
would be ruinous if he had many legacies.
