L , , From the 11,11idaysburg Register. The nougA-CarpPetter Again al Wor Nil:. Jt.):l It is 3 lonviale since I have written any ihing tar trio ;midi.; prints;. and then I gave some rough hewn notices in the " Joutnal" at Huntingdon. But in' these times, when " teorAing men," are working themselves into a party . or rath er, when one of the leading parties of the day, is trying to " work than on the shores" I thought it would out be out of the way it I should sharpen up my "broken-axe!' and try its edge upon these new (angled workingmen, that have lately become so very industrious in our county. A few years ago I traced the lines of a taw poli ticians; and it was said, pretty well; so here goes to try it again. Your paper and the "Journal," have been " dobbnig in ;" and I think I can get along pretty well, considering. I have fur several years thought, that the workingmen did not attend strictlye nough to their political duties. While they were at work, toiling fur their bread and butter, the politicians, were always busy working for office ; and when they got in, they worked into each others hands ; and the truth is they have worked the state so much in debt aml out of credit, that every body says that politics is nothing but a fight between the ins and oats. But if the working men would take my advice, demagogues would be out of power, and the State out of debt—honest men in their places, and the State in credit. If you want to be cheated out of your eyes, trade horses with a regular horse jockey, and be lieve what he says ; and my word for it you will agree at once vou are done fur. So if you want to be cheated in politics,, trade with politicians—believe what theyl say—anti if you atilt cheated, say I ant a tool. Now, how is it with this new party—or rather old party, under a new name, that is pretending to Ise so much in love with the working men of our county. Who are the master mechanics that are laying out the work, and what is their object ? Let me tell you. They are a set of old party pack horses, that have broken down, carrying their own corruptions as a load— they want to get a new start: and they know no ether way than to tickle the pre judices of workingmen—pretend they work hard—and say they think all the. world of any man who really does work for a living—When onec in power, what do they care for you, or your hard work? not the snap of their fingers. Just let us look at the only man of last years litter, that the leaders considered tit to be their man again. THOMAS WESTON. Is not he al pretty thing to he considered a cliao , ptool or the workingman's rights. •• traitor, r s .; the en from our rytg and a peetra , . • •aer par I/ Or admiss i on, of yet they wan t you to think him very honest. Now, if he had deserted the rank and file drill of one party, without tryi^e ' 40 creep into the other, he might make I sotto pretensions to honesty, but this is 1 asking too much— a party tool a working- maii's friend!—nonsense!Workingmen 1 don't use such tools—it is worse than u sing a shoeing hammer to drive nine inch spikes—working men want a man who has some principles, and who will stick to them—Every mechanic has a rule, and he always works by it. Tommy Weston is fit for nothing but a dupe fur politicians, and for that lie does right well—Let them use him. But let us sue his colleague, GEORGE R. McFARLANE. All I know of him I have learned from himself and madam Rumor, neither of them said to be very good authority. lie is a great workine. b man, so he says—and in tact I know he does a great deal of wind work. He has been a working man since the a. grurian notions et that working women Fanny 11' right first took toot in Philadel phia county, (in 1829, so he says ;) and since that time his puppy love" fur the toiling millions has grown into an undying affection; and when that odious and justly dispised party went to pot, George mixed with other kindred spirits; and has for years in our county, been a regular blow horn fur a party, and has as regularly as si p/ pa, ty man I know, keen pulling the fenthers from that quiet old goose—the public. When party prejudices were to be excited—and a little ileinagogueism was to be used—" I more George R. Mc .Farlane address this meeting" always found him really t hough wholly unprepa• red, and unexpeetedly called on"— to open the fountain of party slang; entirely for getting either truth or reason. lie ispur ty hired, and party paid, yet lie wants to be called a friend of the workingmen.— But independent of all this ; he is opposed to American Mechanics--lie wants these to have no protection by their government from the pauper labor of the old countries i ; and I won't vote for any such man ; so long as I have tulwork for a living in my native country. George works too well for his share of party stemlings, to think of men who work for bread—That won't do —working men let him pass. Bat they have one honest soul on that ticket--a ' real laborer fur office, that I must not fur- ' JERENII.III CUSNINGIT.A.M. He is the same in a, who nas saved tram po litical disgrace, by James Steel and his friends—shoran three times on the Anti- Masonic ticket and Wall elected to save his feelings, after having been beaten for a Alilitary °nice by the most unpopular man in the county, (except This is the same man, now fresA front Ike ranks of Ike people, who would never work for any thins but office, that is out as a wotkingtuan. Now, Jerry wants to ;Gt. in James Steel's office—he wants the bread of the friend who led him when lie was like' to starve in the poliiical field--1 never knew an honest working man who did not' despise an ungrateful man—even dogs will not kill sheep at home. Let Jerry stick i--let Inns run and when disgraced, he will wear the scar I nos. give him. There is one more working man on this ticket, should like to know more about than I do. I imagine he is a fine subject for &Nuts tion, I however can only give him a blow or two, and leave him to be inquired after. ISAAC DORLAND. lie I believe is considered the rotation candidate. They could not have selected a better one. For it I am correctly informed he has been ro tating in office for more than thirty years, and as been out only one; He is now ready again, and fresh from the people. THIRTY YEARS IN OFFICE ought to satisfy most men, but it is left for that pa triotic place called Huntingdon, to furn ish a candidate, who is willing still to be the servant of the people, after a service of 30 years, what a spirit of resignation to the people's will ! With what meek ness he foregoes his own desires, and works for the working men! Patriot son, of Pas triot sire! Thirty years in office, and still willing to hold on, a little longer, and' yet a little longer!" Is it not strange what love of the workingmen will do. 11 orkingmen/ I don't mean you Ilurn• bug fellows--1 mean you who dig and, toil! What do you think of ouch a ticket to represent your interests, I can't go it. And if such men can get into our offices, all I have got to do is to work still harder with niy BROAD AXE.

THE VOICE OF THE "BIG DIS rfticr :7) Pursuant to public notice a large and re- I spectable meetmg of the Harrisonian Dein ocrats of the " Big D , strict" was held o the house of Win. Donaldson, HI the Bt.. l ough of ih evening of Fridny, ;he 93,! nr, JOIN STANLEY, of Da.cansvdle, was appointed President; SETH R. NlcCumt, Jame Coors.*, E. L. COWAN and Aztem. VANTRIEN, Vice Presidents ; and Benj. C. Lytle and James M. HiCit, Secretaries. Oil motion of Jno. Penn Jones, Resolved, That a committee of ten be appointed to prepare a preamble and res °lotions expressive of the sentiments of the meeting: Whereupon the President appointed J. P. JOIIPCI. J. TT . Cord, D. Armstrong, William Hamilton, Dale' Beatty, Jacob Stufit, John Simons, Robt. A. Dt cMurtrie, and George Stoner, said committee. After retiring for a short time the com mittee, through their chairman, reported the following: .'Eternal vigilance is the r. 4.. of Lib. 1 ~,,,..” Deeply impressed with the cor rectiees of this maxim, we deem it our first duty to remind our fellow citizens that our independence and our republican institutions are only human establishments, carved into existence by human exertions, and to be sustained only by human efforts —that by vigilance, perseverance and en ergetic action alone can we expect to per petuate them, and that the loss of them would be a calamity to the human family terrible in its consequences and momen tous in its disastrous results. Then, in hiew of the foregoieg considerations, and firmly believing that our efforts are rightly ' directed•—that our principles are the prin• ciples upon which a Republic must stand, and our measures the measures best calcu lated to secure .. the greatest good to the greatest number"—are we not all imperi ously called upon by every considertaiun that should prompt a patriotic and philan thropic heart, to remember the price of Liberty and pay it freely and Ally?— Trusting the response will be a long, loud universal AYE, we turn to a brief view of the principles and measures of the two op. posing parties now struggling for the as. cendency. But first let us renew our protestations of regret and heart-felt sorrow for the loss of that beloved and venerated man, Win. Henry Harrison—whose death was death to the . fair prospects and bright hopes that gleamed upon us in the hour of his hi. umph. His memory we cherish as the memory of one that shall ne'er be forgot ten. His unworthy and incompetent suc cessor we pity. Our opponents it is known to all are the friends and supporters of the Federal Veto power—the sovereignty of the Pa ecutive—Previous Pardons—Direct an, Onerous taxes—Low Wages—Worthless Currency—Prodigality and rascality in Public affairs. Their men in power have ever been the enemies of the People; op. pressing them with Taxes ead burdeniii,. them with wrong and insult—they de etroyed, :n the sad hour of their triumph, the best currency that ever existed in any country—they have sought to ruin the Farmers. Mechanics and Laborers of di , country by throwing open our sea-ports to the productions of the pauper labor of for eign miatries--they have sought to estab dish Standing Armies in time of Peace, and to unite the sword and purse in th• hands of the Executive; whtl.t the Horne sonsen Democrats have ever stoutly r . Isisted these measures, anti C3il:e wieti, an , ' ever will contend, for ,otind Democratic principles, and gel iv; .', 'loilw crtels4i Cll. I herd ore, Resolved, That in again entering the field of political contest, we do se in cup• port of tho following articles, laid down and adopted by the "Green Mountain) r ßoys" at their late State Conrention. To !wit: 1. A TA RIFF, not a " Judicious Tar jiff," nor a simple " Revenue Tariff," but a 'sound and adequate Protective Tariff, which will secure American Labor from ruinous foreign competitions, encourage the toil and enterprise of the Producer and the Consumer, the Farmer, the Manufac terer, the Mechanic, and render the United States " what they of right ought to be," but what they otherwise cannot be," Free and Independent States." :1. The DISTRIBUTION, among the several States to whom it belongs, of the Proceeds of the Sales of the Public Lands. S. The exercise of the constitutional power, reposed in the Federal Govern ment alone, to provide a " Uniform Cur rency," by means of which exchanges may be equalized, and the business anti the commercial operations of the people may be facilitated and protected. 4. That just ECONOMY in the ad ministration of Government, both State and Federal, which is demanded by the spirit of our Republican institutions. 5. The absolute predominance of LAW AND ORDER; and the redress of politi cal grievances, whether real or imaginary, only by their instrunsedtality. 6. One Presidential Term. 7. The alteration of the constitution by a ',modi fi cation of the VETO POWER, Iso as to protect the people from its abom inable abuse, in the hands of misguided ambition, whether exhibited in the sensi bility of a paraded conscience, or of the less questionable form of Executive re sentment. 9. The freedom and purity of Elections. 10. To secure the separation of the Purse and Sword—the Treasury under the exclusive control of Congress. And furthermore, Resolved, That we are opposed to all further increase of the Stute Debt, under any pretext whatever. 1 ft , olvvd, , p te4f ar,r‘invt •i 3x upon T..x to. the dupport of !;:zy ,iroru, now quartered upon our pub• 1;c: onp!ovt• men ts. That the critical situation of our public affairs require, most imperious ly, the selection of good, true, steady, hon est, able men for Legislators, and that in our opinion the candidates the Harrison Democrats offer, are such.

ROBERT ELLIOTT of Perry county, as the Dem ocratic Harrisonian candidate for Senator from this Senatorial district; because he is a PLAIN, PRAC TICAL, HARD WOR KING FARMER, whose interests are in exact unison with the interests of the toil isg, tax-burdened and cppressed people-- whose honesty and Ltness is beyond ques tion—whose principles accord with cur own —whose ability to advocate and de fend these principles, and the interests o f his country and his constituents, is undis puted—and whose firm, consistent, and honorable political career shows him to be a man of the right stamp. We pledge him our united and zealous support. Resolved, That in JONATHAN Mc- WILLIAMS—the Spruce Creek Black smith--we have an honest, hard working, well informed, man—who is pledged to support and vindicate the interests of the " upper end"--who, being himself a la borer will zealously support the interests of the " toiling millions"—who is a good, sound Democrat in principle and practice, and that " We will all to a man do all we can" Ito ensure his election Resolved, That in BRICK BLAIR the Farmers of the county will have an able and worthy . representative, who will at• tend to their interests with strict fidelity —who will be the true friend of Retrench ment and Reform--who will oppose otter loos and unjust taxation, and will support such measures as will conduce to the general prosperity of the country. We pledge him our hearty support. Resolved, That JAMES STEEL is too good an Officer—too clever a man—too (faithful a political friend--to be deteatei t b o y b a e." apostate, and that .‘ he won't begin Resolved, That JOHN REED is ditto, I,n every particular, and that we give him iur most hearty support.

Resolved, That JAS. SAXTON and THOMAS E. ORBISON are worthy the .pport of every Ilarrisonittn Democrat in he county, and that we will give them Pura " with a right good will." Resolved, That time and events have ,tut fastened deeper in our minds the con iiction of David R.

National Forum, Ar LsrAmoui CONSPIRACY DEFECTED ! Al TEMPTED OUTRAOY. 'PON THE ELEC Tux FitAxerilia—Locoroco VILLANY A most iniquitous scheme is now in opera tion by the Locofocos to carry the city.— They have brought voters from the surroun ding districts, and from ether States, to re main in the city to vote at the Election in o:tober, under the atanagement of a late employee of the General Government, righteously rejected by the U. S. Senate. :they have entered into a conspiracy a- Igainst the elective rights of the honest citizens of Philadelphia--they have de liberately set about packing the wards with imported voters to draw the voice of the legal electors, the men who have their property and their fixed residences among us. A more infamous traud—a more barefaced act of political villany--a more atrocious attack upon the purity of the elective franchise, has not been made since the Locoloco magistrates of New York discharged a jail full of criminals from Blackwell's Island to vote at the charter election, NVe shall immediately lay before the public the whole history of this infamous attempt to carry the city by fraud and outrage—we shall publish the name of the leading conspirator, with the real names of his accomplices—the amount paid to each of them, and the source whence this corruption fund is derived. Perjury, black and infamous perjury, has already I been committed by several of these im ported voters. 'l'hey are marked men, and every one will be prosecuted accor ding to law. The leading conspirator, the exscaptaia of the spies and traitors, who has poisoned the mind ofJohn Tyler, %ill be brought to the tribunals of justice, with the evidence of his deeds before his eyes. BEW ARE I BEWARE! From the Hollidaysburg Register, G. H. Jll , lFarlane , s Infidelity. Ma. Eorrox--Through your politeness in publishing my note calling on Mr. 0. R. McFarlane for his opinion in regard to the Divine Scriptures, I have received his re ply in our paper of the 23 ult. It is em phatic and to the point—just such a one as might be expected from an open and avoided infidel. He says in these words: I protest against any political interfer ence with my religious opinions." 1 here protest against wishing to know any thing about his religious opinions; because I have been credibly informed that he entertains no religious opinions, but openly and publicly denounces the Divine Scriptures. _ . I li.. • nothinz further to say on this subject. His reply determines my oppo sition to him, because I cannot or will sot vote fora man who will not declare him self to believe in the Divine Scriptures : Those who reverence their political party more than their Gud may vote for him, but I profess to reverence the latter the most, and therefore cannot. E. L. From the Hollidaysburg Register. Ma. Joriss—l have noticed with much surptise and astonishment the reply of Mr. G. R. M'Farlane to the query of E. L., concerning the Divine Scriptures.— I must confess that ie is plainer on the subject of infidelity than i expected he or any man at this enlightened day would be, when asking the people to vote for him. If he should be elected after thus publish ing his opinions it will be his right to urge the passage of such laws as he ►nay please in regard to the Divine worship, if indeed he can hold his office under the constitu tion of the state. Some say that the people have no right to inquire concerning a candidate's reli gious opinions. Surely then those per. SODS will not object to inquiry concerning a man's opinions that are not religious. It is such opinions which I object to. I will take Mr. Mac. as he requests, that is: "By Ids fruits ye shall judge him." Ist. Ile has never been inside of any of our many Churches on an occasion of Di vine worship. 2d. He has openly and publicly used the following sentiment: "The scrip tures are nothing but a damned fable." Holding these sentiments is doubtless the reason why ho cannot look a man in the face. " TOILING MILLIONS." THE STATE OF RHODE lELAND.—The Convention fur training the Constitution of Rhode Island is making very fair pro gress. The two great questions of repre sentation and suffra.e were on Wednes day and Thursday referred to committees; and on the former a report has been made, which may be considered conclu sive as to the opinions of the Convention, that the Senate shall consist of thirty-one members, one from each town, and the House of seventy members, one fur each sixteen hundred inhabitants, and one for each fraction of over tine half that number, but securing one to each town.

Spurious ones may be sent out to deceive the unsuspecting. Let it he re-' membered that the law is very specific as to the labelling of the tickets fur Prothon otary, 4-c. and for Register, &c. 'rho former must be labelled Prothonotary, Clerk of the Courts of Quarter Sessions and Oyer and Terminer," and the latter Regiter of Wills, Recorder of Deeds, and Clerk of the Orphans' court. So that there may be no mistaking the meaning of what we say, we here insert the clause of 1 the law relating to the subject—" The qualified electors of the county of Hunt ingdon shall elect one person to fill the offices of Prothonotary, Clerk of the Courts of Quarter Sessions and Oyer and Terminer; and one person to fill the offi ces of Register of Wills, Recorder of Deeds and Clerk of the Orphans' Court." And the last section of the act relating to the elections of Prothonotaries, Clerks, Recorders and Registers is as follows : Separate tickets shall be voted for each office, or when there are more than one to be held by one person, fur the offices, under this act ; and each ticket shall des. ignate, on the outside, the office or offices, and on the inside, the name of the person voted for to till such office or offices." More Proof of the i➢umbug. The Standard and Watchman offices ' are sending out the " Workingmen's"' party or Humbug tickets, headed by Hen ry C. Eyer, the regular Locofoco nominee for the Senate. The cloven foot sticks out " a feet" 0,825 4,139 KT The Lewi stown Gazette says :—•"It is said that the locos or Perry are betting that FRIDAY the NINTH of September came this yeas• on TUMMY the BUTZ." What say the locos of liuntt ngtlon on the subject ? The Election. Nest Tuesday will be a day big with the fate of Pennsylvania. An election of great importance is then to take place, Two political parties, diametrically oppo site in principles, are striving for the vic tory. The one party are contending for the good old Democratic measures unetur which our country prospered and enjoyed happiness; and the other is contending for the new tangled doctrines of modem Locofocoism, under the ascendency ei which the affairs of the country have for the last ten or twelve years been gradually sunk into distress and ruin. On the one side we see the advocates of a Protective Tariff; of the distribution of the Public Land fund; of a National Institution tip furnish a sound, wholesome and uniforms currency ; the opponents of our present corrupt and profligate State Administra- Lion, under which the citizens are bur. tbened with oppressive taxation to keep up pampered office holders and partisans. And on the other side we find the advo cates of the odious doctrines of Free Trade and Low Wages; the enemies of Distri. bution ; the opponents of measures calcu- Irted to ensure a good and uniform cur• rency ; and the advocates of the State Administration, which is daily driving the Government to ruin, while its Governor and his bosom friends are engaged tin "Lumber" speculations, and "talking login." The line of distinction being thee wide ly drawn, there can be no mistaking i'. Let all enroll themselves under the ban ner of the one or the other of these parties. The doctrines of the one, being unpopular and anti-republican, the party are afraid to avow and utter them openly. In many 11 places they conceal them from the people, and resort to tricks and humbugs to carry their point. Hence in this county, we find our old enemy—•though put down timo _ . and again --like pirates, arrayed under A false colors. Being afraid to rally openly under the standard of Locofocoism, they assume the name of Workingmen" and work most industriously at the business of party politics. Freemen of Hunting,lon county! can you be led estray by such barefaced deception, when great princh l ig plea are at stake, and when the fate of the "1 Commonwealth may hang upon a aumat... vornl Remember that we have a Start Senator to elect this fall! Remember that we have two Representatives to elect! And remember, too, that this Senator and these Representatives may make the ma jority in one or the other or in both branches of the Legislature either for or against us, accordingly an we decide on next Tuesday. And remember further, that the next legislature must elect a 1 1 United Sates Senator, to serve for six. years; and may INSTRUCT our Senators and Represenatives in Congress to sup' port or oppose particular measures of vital importance to our welfare. The State will be apportioned for members of the Senate and House of Representatives; and it the Lorofoco or Humbug party gain a majority in the Legislature they will Gerrymander the State so that we cannot hope to have a fair representation tor seven years to come. Bear these things in mind when you go to the polls-- and if you wish to elect a Senator and Rep resentatives who will consider the inter ests of their constituents paramount to party considerations, vete for ROBERT ELLIOTT, BRICR BLAIR and JONATHAN MC W =LAMS. Otr Governor Porter refuses to sign the Congressional Apportionment Bill be cause it does net swallow optic Whig and Antimatonic majority of this county in the Lecofoco majority of the surrounding counties! We want our friends to bear this in mind on Tuesday next, when they go to the polls. If they are in favor of having their votes thus swallowed up, they will vote for Henry C. Eyre, George R. McFarlane and Thomas Mewl to represent them in the next Legislature -- THEY will do any thing to carry out the wishes of the VETO KING. But if our friends are opposed to having their votes swallowed up by a Locoloco Gerrymander, as is contemplated by our opponents, they will vote for ROBERT ELLIOIT, JOXA- Tittx McWlLLtaus arid BRIM BLAIR for Senator and Representatives—MlLT will go in for a fair apportionment and no SWALLOWING 00. .1 Fashionable article.
